Troubleshooting
If operational difficulties are encountered, first obtain as much information as
possible regarding the problem. Failures and malfunctions often may be traced to
simple causes such as loose connections, low battery power, or improper setup.
Additional troubleshooting is best performed by substitution. A PCB or load cell believed
to be defective may be checked by replacing the suspect part with known good part and
then observing whether the problem is corrected.
Error Codes
The following table lists the WILDCAT scale’s error messages.
Error Message Description Probable Action
E1
ROM error Check Power Supply Voltages. Replace Controller PCB.
E2
Internal RAM error Check Power Supply Voltages. Replace Controller PCB.
E7
EEPROM data incorrect. Check Power Supply Voltages. Replace Controller Logic PCB.
E30
Scale in motion during calibration Press PRINT to return to [E SCAL] or [ ADD LD].
E32
Insufficient calibration test weight
or insufficient signal from load cell
Press PRINT, then add additional test weight. Recalibrate using more
test weight.
E34
Calibration Test Weight too large Press PRINT
.
Use test weight less than 100% of scale capacity.
E E E
Scale not zeroed at power up Auto Zero on power-up (F2.9) is enabled and the weight is greater
than zero. Zero the scale or remove the weight until zero is captured.
Re-calibrate the scale.
-E E E
Scale not zeroed at power up.
Auto Zero on power-up (F2.9) is enabled and the weight is on the
platform. Add weight until zero is captured. (Put platform on). Re-
calibrate the scale.
