• Trendsetter_400/800_Proofing

Operator Action:

Select the RESUME button from the workstation dialog box. If that does not correct the problem, select MEDIA CLEARED from the workstation dialog box and manually remove the media (donor and receiver). If the problem persists, call Creo service.

Service Information:

Determine if the actuator is moving properly over it's full range of motion. You can move all actuators manually, or from the diagnostic monitor using the "vr" or "cr" commands. If the actuator is not moving quickly and smoothly over it's entire range of motion, check for mechanical faults, air-flow problems, and obstructions. If the actuator moves well over it's range of motion, check the sensors with the "proof" command and verify that they are operating correctly. If the sensors aren't, then the problem is likely faulty wiring or faulty sensor alignment. Note that the VR does not operate properly unless the proof loader is locked into it's upright position (position=1), so don't try and test it with the proof loader open.

Service Information:

The sensors can be over-ridden using the "alproof si" parameter. This will allow the machine to operate, but in a much slower and more dangerous manner. In this state, the machine should only be used if absolutely necessary and if it will be fixed very soon. When the sensors are disabled, the machine is running "blind", so it could incur additional damage if used. Use extreme caution.

Cause:

• An actuator has timed-out while moving. This is caused by a mechanical or eletrical fault, or an obstruction preventing the actuator from moving freely. It is also possible that the sensors are working and the actuator is moving over its full range, but is taking too long to move. In this case, the mechanical problem causing the slow motion must be fixed.
