RAP 4.13 J362- ELEMENT FAILED TO CUT

J362 is displayed when the S21 Element detect at Knife sensor does not
detect that the wire has been cut.
5. Do GP 6.4 to check S21 Element Detect at Knife sensor
This clears the fault
Yes- Return to normal operation;
No- Go to Step 2
6. Do GP 6.5.6 to check the Knife function.
This clears the fault
Yes- Return to normal operation;
No- Go to step 3
7. Do GP 6.3.6 and run the Feed Element functional test. Determine if
the Knife actually cuts the Element. The cut should be clean, with no
excess material remaining after cutting.
Does the Knife cut the Element cleanly?
Yes- Go to Step 4;
No- Go to step 6
8. When doing the Feed Element test, determine if there is a gap
between the cut section of wire and the remaining wire. If the wire is
"bunched up," this can cause erroneous J362 errors.
Is there a visible gap between the cut wire and remaining wire
immediately after cut?
Yes- Go to Step 6;
No- Go to Step 5
9. Adjust the Feed Belt Home Position. Refer to ADJ 1.4 for additional
detail. Adjust the Feed Belt Home in increments of -1 and repeat Step
2. The Belt tooth should mesh easily with the wire, and a small gap
should be observed immediately after the wire is cut by the Knife.
This clears the fault
Yes- Return to normal operation;
No- Go to Step 5
10. Do REP 3.14.3 to replace the Knife Blade.
GBC eWire
This clears the fault
Yes- Return to normal operation;
No- Go to Step 7
11. Do REP 3.14 to replace the Knife Module.
This clears the fault
Yes- Return to normal operation;
No- Escalate to second level
RAP 4.14 J363- FEED BELT HOME STEPS TIMEOUT
J363 is triggered when it takes longer than specified time for the Element
belt to feed the element. This can be caused due a jammed Element
along the Element belt path
1. Ensure there are no obstructions or residual fragment of the element
on the belt.
The Element belt is free of obstructions
Yes- Go to Step 2
No- Remove the obstructions and ensure smooth travel of the belt.
2. Manually rotate the Element belt and ensure smooth operation
The Element belt moves smoothly without any binding
Yes- Go to Step 4.
No- Go to Step 3
3. Inspect closely to determine where the binding occurs. Binding is
most likely to occur on the Element engagement guide, or the Track
assembly (PL 5.9).
Belt operates smoothly
Yes- Go to Step 4
No- Replace affected parts (PL 5.9)
4. Check if the element spool is loaded properly.
Element spool is loaded properly
Yes- Go to Step 5
No- Remove the element spool and reinsert it properly
