If malfunctions occur
12 If malfunctions occur
Proceed as follows for troubleshooting:
Even if you are in a rush, proceed systematically and in
a targeted manner.
In the worst case, arbitrary, indiscriminate disassembly and
modifications to the settings may mean that you are no
longer able to determine the original cause of the error.
Get an overview of the function of the product as related to
the overall system.
Try to clarify whether the product fulfilled the required
function in the overall system before the error occurred.
Try to record all changes to the overall system in which the
product is installed:
– Have the conditions or application for the product
changed?
– Have changes (e.g. conversions) or repairs been made to
the overall system (machine/system, electrical system,
controller) or the product? If yes, which ones?
– Has the product or machine been operated as intended?
– What kind of malfunction has occurred?
Try to get a clear picture of the cause of the error.
If necessary, ask the immediate machine operator
or foreman.
