Question/Problem
 
Conveyor is not working automatically. Motor runs when forcing output, but no Motor running input received.
Overload Alarm

 
Environment

 BOSS III

Opto 22 I/O System

Motor runs when output forced ON

 

Answer/Solution

Overload alarm means the corresponding input does not come on when the output is energized for a motor. When the output is forced on, the contactor engages and the motor turns on. A continuing overload alarm condition indicates a problem with the input circuit. There are 4 main possibilities for this: failed fuse on the input board, failed input module, failed contact or wiring failure.

Use the troubleshooting chart below to resolve:

Symptom

Cause

Resolution

With output forced, voltage present at motor contactor AUX, voltage present at input terminal, module indicator OFF. Adjacent input also not responding to input voltage

Failed pico fuse

Replace pico fuse

With output forced, voltage present at motor contactor AUX, voltage present at input terminal, module indicator OFF. Adjacent input responds to input voltage

Failed input point

Replace Opto quad pack

With output forced, voltage present at motor contactor AUX, voltage not present at input terminal.

Wiring error

Re-terminate signal wire

With output forced, voltage not present at motor contactor AUX,

Aux contact failure

Replace contactor or Aux contact
