Problem 1 - No exit sensor seen - service tool soon
POSSIBLE CAUSE: This message is displayed if there is a cable tie in the feeder hose at the time the tool is
actuated (at the start of the cycle), or, if the dispenser exit sensor is not functioning properly.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: If this message appears, operation can be resumed immediately. If operation is resumed
and the same message is displayed, the dispenser exit sensor may be dirty, or it may not be functioning properly.
PREVENTION: If this same error is repeated, the dispenser exit sensor lens may be cleaned with a cotton swab
dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Disconnect the feeder hose from the dispenser and insert the dampened end of
the cotton swab into the dispenser strap tube about 1.5" (38 mm) and gently move the cotton swab in and out,
against the top and bottom walls of the strap tube. If the same error is repeated again, notify your maintenance
department.
Problem 2 - Switch #X is stuck or broken
POSSIBLE CAUSE: This message will appear if a switch (button #1, 2, 3, 4, or the trigger) is held down or stuck
when the dispenser is turned "on". This message will also appear if one of these five switches has malfunctioned.
The specific switch (button) that was held down or that has malfunctioned will be displayed at the beginning of the
message.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: When this occurs, the message will disappear when the switch (button #1, 2, 3, 4, or the
trigger) has been freed or released. If the "Switch #X is stuck or broken" message does not disappear, then the
specific switch (button #1, 2, 3, 4, or the trigger) is bad. Contact your maintenance department to have the switch
replaced.
PREVENTION: To prevent this problem from recurring, do not press or hold down any switches (button #1, 2, 3, 4,
or the trigger) when turning the dispenser power "on".
Problem 3 - Restore past tool count
POSSIBLE CAUSE: This message may appear if the tool counter is no longer functioning.
CORRECTIVE ACTION: Press the "Yes" button and resume operation.
PREVENTION: If the same error is repeated, press the "Mem off" button and resume operation. Notify your
maintenance department.
