DO NOT MOVE THE RV UNLESS THE MOTORS ARE PLUGGED IN
TO THE CONTROLLER AND THERE IS BATTERY POWER TO THE
RV. THIS SETS THE BRAKES ON THE SLIDEOUTS TO PREVENT
THEM FROM MOVING DURING TRANSIT.
Error Codes
When an error code occurs during operation, the board LEDs lights will indicate where the
problem is. For motor specific faults the green LED will blink (1) time for motor #1 and (2)
times for motor #2. The red LED will blink 2 to 9 times depending on the error code. Error
codes are as follows:
2 times
Battery capacity is low enough to drop below 6 volts while running.
Battery (low) voltage is below 8 volts at the start of a cycle.
3 times
Battery (high) voltage is greater than 18 volts.
4 times
5 times
Excessive motor current (high amperage) also indicated by (1) side of the slide
continually stalling.
6 times
Motor short circuit: motor or wiring to motor has shorted out.
Hall signal not present: encoder not providing a signal; usually a wiring problem.
8 times
Hall power short to ground: power to encoder has been shorted to ground;
9 times
usually a wiring problem.
The board will need to be reset after an error code. Energizing the extend / retract switch
will reset the board; energizing it a second time will return it to normal operation.

Norco Slideout System
The Norco slideout system is a cable driven slide out used typically on towable products.
The cables guide the room in or out, while the Accu-Slide mechanism evenly pow-
ers the corners keeping the room square.
Motors and cables are behind the interior fascia board around the slideout opening.
Cables may stretch over time. Average stretch will be approximately 1/8" but it
will not affect the function and does not require adjustment.
Slideout runs off the DC power in the RV.
Rubber wipes prevent debris from entering the unit and actuation guides the bulb
seals to close tightly.
Self-locking motor freezes the room in any position of travel.
Slideout is supported by rollers or wear bars not the cables. Cables are used to
keep the slideout balanced on the rollers.
If the room will not activate, generally there is no 12V power to the drive motor. The mo-
tor is equipped with a hex drive override shaft.
This drive can be activated using an electric drill and the flexible shaft provided with each
unit (or use a ratchet to actuate the motor) to pull the room in or out. If the motor is func-
tioning, check the room for obstructions.
