Quick Help — Before You Call Maintenance
-
⚠
Check all E-stops — Walk the entire machine and twist/pull every E-stop button before calling maintenance. Most "machine won't run" calls are a bumped E-stop.
-
⏻
Power cycle the PLC if comms are down — Turn the PLC off, wait 10 seconds, turn it back on. This clears most communication faults with remote I/O and drives.
-
💡
Verify sensor LEDs before replacing — A sensor with its LED on but not triggering the PLC usually means a wiring or input card issue, not a bad sensor.
-
🔧
Check air pressure first — Low plant air causes random pneumatic faults across the whole machine. Check the FRL gauge before troubleshooting individual cylinders.

📜
Note the exact fault code — Write down the fault code from the HMI or VFD display before resetting. The code disappears after reset and maintenance needs it.
