TROUBLESHOOTING

Upper Vertical Auger “Slams” Open

1 Fully extend the upper vertical auger

2 On the rod end of the hydraulic fold cylinder is a bleeder screw Open the screw a small amount to allow air to escape from the system

3 After air has been bled from the system, close the bleeder screw tightly

4 Retract and extend the upper vertical auger If the upper vertical auger slams open again, open the bleeder screw to let more air out of the system Retighten the bleeder screw and repeat

5 If the upper vertical auger continues to slam open after several attempts to bleed air from the system, call Balzer’s

2 Host indicator showing error code:

Display Problem Definition

Internal Programming

Lost or Corrupted

Weighing Capacity

Error

Low Battery

Calibration programming is stored in a permanent memory area This code indicates an error in the stored settings Check both indicators to determine which has the error Attempt to recalibrate the indicator having the error If error still present after recalibration, the indicator will need to be replaced

The scale indicator data being sent to the host indicator is over the maximum weight capacity This typically indicates either a load cell issue or a cable issue Checking the scale indicator will determine which load cell(s) have lost communication with the scale indicator

The supply voltage to the indicator is below proper operating level Check all power connections and source voltage

Unable to Display

Value

Lost Communication with Scale Indicator

No Communication with Scale Indicator

The number that is wanting to be displayed has too many characters for the display to show The typical cause of this error is zeroing out the scale with a full load so when the load is emptied, the negative number has too many characters Zeroing the scale will clear this error

Communication between the host indicator and the scale indicator is no longer present Check the PWR/COM cable between scale and host indicators Check the power connection to the scale indicator If using wireless communication, check all radio settings on both the host indicator and the scale indicator

The host indicator has not been able to establish communication with the scale indicator Check the PWR/COM cable between scale and host indicators Check the power connection to the scale indicator If using wireless communication, check all radio settings on both the host indicator and the scale indicator
