•
Ensure 5 V is supplied at the readhead
•
For cable variants check the correct wiring of the connector
•
If using the analogue variant of QUANTiC with the ADTi ensure the appropriate adaptor cables are connected
•
Check the readhead optical window and scale are clean and free from contamination
•
Restore factory defaults (see page 25) and check the alignment of the readhead. In particular:
•
Rideheight
•
Yaw
•
Offset
•
Ensure the correct scale and readhead combination
•
Use a DTi gauge and check the run-out is within specifications
•
Restore factory defaults (see page 25)
•
Realign the readhead to obtain a green flashing LED at the mid-point of the run-out
•
Recalibrate the system (see page 24)
•
Realign the readhead to obtain a green flashing LED
