(for model RST300-230-RIVET)
is at terminals #1 and #2.
Switches on sensor board are not
set to MFDC position. Push all three
switches to MFDC position.
Unplug the terminal 4,5,6,7 on the
SOFT SENSOR board. Measure
resistance between riveting mandrel
and riveter frame If it is not 0, check
for bad insulator or some other patch
between the insulated tool bar and
the riveter frame. Repair or replace
as needed.
Contact Unitrol service
for instructions.
Increase DIPswitch time. Remember
that this maximum time is the
addition of all switches pushed down
towards the time numbers (.25sec,
.5 sec, .75sec, 1 sec)
Clean riveting mandrel and lower tool
