Error Message:

ALE: trailing-edge actuator on drum

Applies to:

• Trendsetter_400/800
• Trendsetter_400/800_Auto
• Platesetter_VLF
• Trendsetter_VLF

Service Information:

The trailing edge actuator is detected on the drum when a drum move command is issued. Check for faulty TEC sensors by using the "tec" command from the diagnostic. If the sensor is faulty, use "set al te 0" or "set al tes 0" to bypass the sensor and get the customer going. Arrange for field service. If the sensor is OK, test the TEC actuator by using "tec on" or "tec off" and see if any motion occurs.

Operator Action:

Select Resume if that option is available. If the problem persists, turn the machine off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on. Call the Creo Response Centre for assistance.

Cause:

• Invalid diagnostic command. Move the TEC actuator off the drum before issuing drum commands.
• Faulty TEC sensor. The "TEC up" sensor is reading FALSE.
• Faulty TEC cylinder. Try moving it manually with "tec on" and "tec off" commands.
