Description
: The canister position counts did not reach the empty canistercheck counts before the Color Change Timeout expired. If thisoccurs during a Scale Calibration, then the can was not empty before the Scale Cal Step Time expired. This condition can exist from no paint exiting the can or a loss of canister position feedback from the linear potentiometer. The Color ChangeTimeout needs to be increased. The Empty Can counts have not been properly calculated. Remed y: Establish of timeout. Verify canister position feedback operating properly. Feedback can be verified by checking the analog input (AIN[1, DISP]). Check color change valve operation. Check the dump valvein the case of the paint not exiting the canister. Increase the Color Change Timeout. If the gun has been changed then a scale calibration may be required. Reset, and attempt to continue if this occur during automatic mode. If the robot is stuck in the docking station then, switch to manual mode and run a de-dock move to take the robot home. If this alarm occurs during a scalecalibration then increase the Scale Cal Step Time (40 seconds by default). It could require more time depending on the material used to scale calibrate.
