Introduction This Service Manual provides handling of wire processing defects. It is intended that even those who are new to the service work related to this machine can understand it, but the main parts names and operations are described as already understood. (We assume that you understand the contents of the instruction manual.) The maintenance of individual mechanisms will be edited in separate sheets.
Page 7
Differences between old C 551 Series and SSA Series ⚫ The power source and board systems are almost newly designed. Those of old models cannot be used. MDU for height motors (E2P-MDU) is common. ⚫ The power supply is switched from transformer specifications to switching power source. The body weight has been reduced.

Isolation of cause <<unit or board?>> While troubleshooting for each trouble will be explained later, relatively common error messages include [… motor error]. If [… motor error] does not resolve, isolate the cause before disassembling the unit or replacing the board. [How to Check] A: The unit moves (even slightly), but an error message is displayed.

Writing programs This is the procedure for writing programs to CTGM3 (main board), CTGP (crimper board), CTGL (operation panel board), and CTGCTR (sub power source board) by using FM-ONE (writing machine). (1) Plug the FM-ONE connector into the OBW connector of the board to which a program is written while the machine is ON and standby.
Page 126
Program writing starts. When writing is finished, “Complete. Again? Y/N” is displayed. (5) Disconnect the FM-ONE harness connector from the board. (6) Touch [Origin reset] from the [E] button on the operation panel to perform origin reset. Always perform origin reset after writing a program.
