TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE FAULT THE OPERATOR WILL NOT RESPOND TO ANY COMMANDS POSSIBLE CAUSE FIX a) No power supply b) Operator control station is wired wrong c) Interlock switch is activated d) Dial still in programming, option, or diagnostic mode e) Motor is malfunctioning f) Motor thermal overload tripped g) Possible accessory malfunction h) Off Board relay may need to be replaced see wiring diagram i) Possible logic board failure ➤ Verify primary line voltage from power source. Green POWER LED must be on. ➤ Use the OPEN, CLOSE and STOP LEDs to help check correct wiring. Verify that the board is accepting commands by using the onboard station. Green LED next to stop button must be on. ➤ Check Interlock(s). If more than one external interlock is present they must be wired in series. Green LED next to stop button must be on. ➤ Set dial to desired wiring type. ➤ Verify proper voltage getting to the motor (Check motor name plate). ➤ Check to see if motor is hot. Allow motor to cool before attempting to move door. Cycle operator in constant pressure one full cycle open and close to reset fault. ➤ Disconnect all devices, reattach them one at a time testing for a failure after each one is replaced. ➤ When the OPEN or CLOSE button is pressed, Relay A or B LED should turn on and the door should move in the corresponding direction. If Relay A or B lights and the door does not move, off board relay may need to be replaced (see wiring diagram Off Board Relays). ➤ Replace logic board. POWER LED IS NOT ON a) Loose secondary wiring connections or a faulty control transformer b) Hoist interlock switch ➤ Repair or replace connections or control transformer. ➤ Check interlock.
