Direct Drive PCB Checklist Addendum Hennessy has noticed a considerable increase in the amount of NAD’s (No Apparent Defect) for the 950/1050 PCB’s (8111886). Most NAD’s are in the “Chasing Weights” category. The next reason for PCB return is due to the Motor Controllers failing. Some of the PCB’s returned tested OK.
Direct Drive *Glossary Of Terms Accuracy Check - Also referred to as Plane Separation. When a weight is placed on one side (plane) of a wheel the opposite side (plane) should not change. Balancer Calibration - Also know as Weight Sensor Calibration.
