5 Bed setup Faulty Multiboard If one LCD panel is faulty: The LCD panel will go blank. If both LCD panels are faulty: Both LCD panels will go blank. An alarm will sound. (If the bed is on battery power, the alarm will sound for approximately 1 minute and will then turn off.
Column and accelerometer calibration After replacing always calibrate: a) Any column. b) Control box. c) Any accelerometer. Calibration of columns means: Calibrating the speed of the columns during up or down movement. Calibration of accelerometers means: Calibrating the mattress platform, backrest and calfrest accelerometers in the horizontal position. Connect the bed to the mains and activation the GO button.
