1 Electrical operation
This chapter discusses the electrical operating principle of the AC reach truck. The standard model and its electrical schematic diagram are used as an example. Please use the correct schematic diagram for the specific model. The latest schematic diagrams are available from the manufacturers Web site. This chapter will not address every detail of the electrical operation of the truck. To troubleshoot a particular component, you will need to locate the component on the appropriate page of the schematic diagram and check the circuitry associated with it. You will need to have the schematic diagram at hand for reference while reading the explanation. Make sure that you have the correct schematic diagram with regard to the model and its age.
Note the numbers below the wire identifier 1L1. These (4/12) direct you to the page and zone where the wire is connected. This procedure is used to follow circuits throughout the schematic diagram. If the numbers are given without the slash (/), the connection is on the same page of the schematics. All references marked with L are positive (+) All references marked with M are negative (-)
As the next exercise, please locate the connection to which the previous exercise referred. Page 4/24, zone 12, wire 1L1:
Once again, note the numbers below the wire identifier 1L1. These (1/13) direct you back to the page (and zone) of the first exercise.
B- is connected to several fuses and motor controllers, the horn, the working lights, the steering feedback sensors, and to optional features.
The B- feed is connected to: Page 1/24 1/24 1/24 1/24 1/24 1/24 Zone 13 17 19 24 25 26 Component(s) Connection Connection Connection 10F2 Fuse 11F2 Fuse 12F2 Fuse
B+ also flows to control fuses 10F1 and 11F1, which feed B+ to the other controllers. The individual controllers (display unit controller, traction motor controller, pump motor controller, electric power steering controller and hydraulic valve controller) begin their internal checks to verify that all hardware is functioning properly. If all internal checks pass, the controllers engage their respective safety circuits.
The trucks Controller Area Network (see section 1.5) is now operational and the controllers can communicate their status and possible fault conditions. If all internal checks pass, the traction motor controller activates the K12 contactor coil and the K12 contactor tips feed B+ to the power fuses for the motor controllers. Should an error occur that causes the K12 contactor to become de-energised, all power is cut from the three AC motors (traction motor, pump motor and electric power steering motor). B+ also flows from the traction motor controller to the electric power steering controller at XA3B:7 (see page 4/24, zone 18). The electric power steering controller allows B+ to exit the controller at XA3B:1 to feed B+ to the brake pedal switch (S22). The internal switch has been designed to remove or supply power to the electric brake coil depending on the status of the system.
The contacts exit the electrical power steering controller at connector XA3B:1. The internal relay is in series with the brake pedal switch (S22) and cuts power to the electric brake if an internal error occurs. If the brake pedal switch is activated, the display unit controller (SICOS) sends a message over the CAN bus, which notifies all controllers attached to the bus that the brake pedal switch is activated. The electrical power steering controller then gathers information from the steering wheel sensors. Please refer to page 6/24 (zones 2329) of the electrical schematic diagram. When the steering wheel is turned, the steering wheel motor generates a sinusoidal wave through connector X11, pins 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The signals from the steering wheel motor terminate at connector XA3B, pins 3, 4, 7, 9, 10 and 20 of the electrical power steering controller. The amplitude and frequency of these signals increases the faster the steering wheel is turned. See Figure 1.4. Steering Motor

and 13 on the display unit controller (SICOS). Please refer to page 6/24 (zones 23, 26 and 29) of the electrical schematic diagram. The state information of these proximity switches is sent over the CAN bus to the electrical power steering controller. B+ and B- supply these proximity switches. The signal entering the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4B, pins 1, 2 and 13 is B+ when the LED on the proximity switch is illuminated. The signal is 0 volts when the proximity switch leaves the metal surface and the LED turns off. There are no mechanical limitations for steering the truck; the operator has a full 360 degrees available. The position of the drive wheel is indicated to the operator through the display unit (SICOS). The six direction arrows on the display are normally not highlighted until travel is requested with the directional controller. Once travel has been requested, one of the six arrows will darken in colour to indicate the travel direction and approximate drive wheel position. See Figure 1.5.
The display unit controller (SICOS) gathers the data from the accelerator pedal sensor several times per second. As the voltage from the sensor varies above the nominal neutral value of 0.2 V, the display unit controller (SICOS) distributes this information as a message over the CAN bus. All controllers that are connected to the bus decode the message. When the traction motor controller receives a travel request message from the display unit controller (SICOS), it first checks the above inputs and that there are no internal errors in the controller. Before engaging the drive motor, the traction motor controller must release the electric brake. The brake is powered by the traction motor controller through the electric power steering controller and the brake pedal switch S22. When the brake is released, the traction motor controller begins to pulse the traction motor through the three phases (U, V and W). Since the truck is powered by a DC battery, the traction motor controller must convert DC to AC for the AC motor. This is accomplished in the traction motor controller via a process known as inverting. By applying three inputs out of phase, a voltage drop is created between the three phases. Depending on the lead and lag of the phases, the motor rotates in a certain direction. The speed of the motor is relational to the width and frequency of the pulse being sent to the motor. The greater the width of the pulse, the longer the current flows through the motor. The width of the pulse increases or decreases depending on the feedback from the traction speed encoder (BM1). If the motor revolves too rapidly, the width will decrease and vice versa. This feedback allows the control system to maintain an exact speed regardless of whether the truck is empty or loaded. Travel speed is indicated to the operator through the display unit (SICOS). Please refer to Chapter 4 for a description of the information provided by the display unit. This process continues until the operator releases the accelerator pedal or an alarm occurs that forces the traction motor controller to cease operation and apply the brakes. If there are no alarms, the traction motor controller reverses the phasing to slow down the motor (by attempting to reverse its direction). The brake is applied once the traction motor controller senses no movement from the traction speed encoder. After the travel request has been accepted, the traction motor controller begins to pulse the three separate inputs (U, V and W) of the AC drive motor. Depending on the frequency and duty cycle, the traction motor controller can vary the speed of the drive motor (see Figure 1.6). The outputs (U, V and W) from the traction motor controller are pulsed with both a positive and negative voltage. Figure 1.6 shows the varying duty cycle along with the positive and negative values. The actual current passing through the motor is more sinusoidal than pulsed due to the characteristics of an inductor.

Sinusoidal Voltage
The traction motor controller determines the speed and direction of the motor through the pulses sent from the traction speed encoder (BM1) mounted in the motor assembly. Note: The console can be used to adjust the trucks top travel speeds. The encoder is connected to the traction motor controller at connector XA1D, pins 1, 2, 3 and 5. Refer to page 10/24 of the electrical schematic diagram. Pin 1 is the 12 V supply, pin 2 is the negative connection, pin 3 is channel A and pin 5 is channel B. Figure 1.7 shows the pulses from channel A and B, and their phase relative to each other.
Channel A Channel B
Figure 1.7 Traction encoder pulses (channels A and B)
The traction motor controller determines the speed of the motor by counting the number of pulses from a single channel over a certain time. The faster the motor turns, the more pulses will be generated in that period. Determining the direction of the drive motor is accomplished by comparing the signals in channels A and B. The direction in which the motor is turning will determine which channel leads and which channel lags. In the example given in Figure 1.7, the channel A signal is leading and the channel B signal is lagging. The signal that rises first is the leading signal. The two channels are 90 degrees out of phase, which allows them to be easily compared. When the motor rotates in the opposite direction, the channel B signal rises before the channel A signal. Note: The operation of the encoder can be tested with the console. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information. A temperature sensor is located in the drive motor. The sensor for the drive motor is connected to the traction motor controller at connector XA1F, pins 6 and 12. The nominal resistance of the temperature sensor at room temperature is 600 ohm.

The varying voltage produced by the control unit is connected to the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:2. In the neutral position, the voltage produced by the fingertip control is approximately 2.5 V. As the control is moved to request lifting, the voltage output increases gradually to a nominal value of 4.5 V (full-speed lifting). As the control is moved to request lowering, the voltage output decreases gradually to a nominal value of 0.5 V (full-speed lowering). Note: If the fingertip control requires replacement, the output values might have to be learned through the console. Refer to Chapter 2 for more information. The display unit controller (SICOS) receives information from the control module potentiometer several times per second. As the voltage from the potentiometer varies above the neutral value of approximately 2.5 V, the display unit controller (SICOS) distributes this information as a message over the CAN bus. The message includes information on whether the request was for lifting or lowering and the speed at which the action should be taken. All controllers connected to the bus receive and decode the message.
hydraulic valve controller activates the proportional lowering valve (M1) at pin XA5A:3 and causes the lifting/lowering spool to move to the lowering position. The amount of time that the valve is open determines the amount of fluid allowed to exit the lifting cylinders, which controls the lowering speed. There are mechanical adjustments in the hydraulic manifold to control the maximum lowering speed (see Chapter 6). The lowering function can also be adjusted electrically via the console (see Chapters 2 and 3). Please refer to Chapter 6 for information on the operation of the lifting cylinder.

1.15.2 Reaching/retracting operation After the request for reaching or retracting is accepted, the pump motor controller begins to pulse the three separate inputs (U, V and W) of the AC pump motor. The pump motor controller varies the speed of the pump motor by altering the control frequency and duty cycle (see Figure 1.6). The outputs (U, V and W) of the pump motor controller are pulsed with both a positive and negative voltage. Figure 1.6 shows the varying duty cycle along with the positive and negative values. The actual current passing through the motor is more sinusoidal than pulsed due to the characteristics of an inductor. The directional valve in the main hydraulic manifold is used to control between reaching and retracting. These magnetic valves are controlled by the hydraulic valve controller (MHYRIO) via connectors XA5A:16 M3 (reaching) and XA5A:34 M4 (retracting). 1.15.3 Tilting request The tilting request is initiated by the fingertip control module (R13), which is located on the trucks control panel. Please refer to page 7/27 (zone 19) of the electrical schematic diagram. The control module functions like a potentiometer, i.e. the system senses the neutral position and is able to determine movement from it. This position information is output from the module through connector XR13:3 and is input into the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:8. The control module outputs at connectors XR13:1, XR13:2, XR13:3 and XR13:4. The control module receives its 5 V supply from the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:7. The negative connection is supplied through the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:9. The varying voltage produced by the control unit potentiometer is connected to the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:8. In the neutral position, the voltage produced by the fingertip control is approximately 2.5 V. As the control is moved to request tilting up, the voltage output increases gradually to a nominal value of 4.5 V (full tilting up rate). As the control is moved to request tilting down, the voltage output decreases gradually to a nominal value of 0.5 V (full tilting down rate). 1.15.4 Tilting operation After the request for tilting is accepted, the pump motor controller begins to pulse the three separate inputs (U, V and W) of the AC pump motor. The pump motor controller varies the speed of the pump motor by altering the control frequency and duty cycle (see Figure 1.6). The outputs (U, V and W) of the pump motor controller are pulsed with both a positive and negative voltage. Figure 1.6 shows the varying duty cycle along with the positive and negative values. The actual current passing through the motor is more sinusoidal than pulsed due to the characteristics of an inductor. The directional valve in the main hydraulic manifold is used to control between tilting up and down. These magnetic valves are controlled by the hydraulic valve controller (MHYRIO) via connectors XA5A:30 M5 (tilt up) and XA5A:4 M6 (tilt down).
15
1.15.5 Side-shifting request The side-shifting request is initiated by the fingertip control module (R14), which is located on the trucks control panel. Please refer to page 7/27 (zone 22) of the electrical schematics. The control module functions like a potentiometer, i.e. the system senses the neutral position and is able to determine movement from the neutral position. This position information is output from the module through connector XR14:3 and is input into the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D11. The control module outputs at connectors XR14:1, XR14:2, XR14:3 and XR14:4. The control module receives its 5 V supply from the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:10. The negative connection is supplied through the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D:12. The varying voltage produced by the control unit potentiometer is connected to the display unit controller (SICOS) at connector XA4D11. In the neutral position, the voltage produced by the fingertip control is approximately 2.5 V. As the control is moved to request shifting to the right, the voltage output increases gradually to a nominal value of 4.5 V (full-speed shifting to the right). As the control is moved to request shifting to the left, the voltage output decreases gradually to a nominal value of 0.5 V (full-speed shifting to the left). 1.15.6 Side-shifting operation After the request for shifting is accepted, the pump motor controller begins to pulse the three separate inputs (U, V and W) of the AC pump motor. The pump motor controller varies the speed of the pump motor by altering the control frequency and duty cycle (see Figure 1.6). The outputs (U, V and W) of the pump motor controller are pulsed with both a positive and negative voltage. Figure 1.6 shows the varying duty cycle along with the positive and negative values. The actual current passing through the motor is more sinusoidal than pulsed due to the characteristics of an inductor. The directional valve in the main hydraulic manifold is used to control between shifting left and right. These magnetic valves are controlled by the hydraulic valve controller (MHYRIO) via connectors XA5A:15 M7 (shift left) and XA5A:20 M8 (shift right).

(Except that the forks must be below the maximum free-lifting height.) When OFF is selected, the long PRE-HEIGHT SEL cycle is selected. This means that the operator must initiate the cycle with the mast in the retracted position and the forks below the maximum free-lifting height. After the operation, the mast returns to the same retracted mast position.
3.1.3.13 AUX.FUNCTION #2
When this parameter is set to ON, height programming is enabled for the operator via the display unit (SICOS). When set to OFF, programming is locked and no changes by the operator are possible. 3.1.4 Config Menu: Adjustments

The traction motor controller supplies truck speed information to the electric power steering controller via the CAN bus. The EPS can reduce the steering motor speed as the trucks speed increases. This parameter makes it possible to alter the amount of steering speed reduction with increasing truck speed. Level 0: No effect Level 9: Maximum steering speed reduction

Provides an increased torque when the steering wheel is turned slowly. It is used to compensate for the drop in V/f (flux) when the frequency applied to the motor is low. Level 0: No torque compensation Level 9: Strong torque compensation Intermediate levels gradually increase the torque compensation. This parameter is useful in two ways. First, it provides strong torque when the steering wheel is turned very slowly. Second, the strong torque neutralises the effect of elastic tyres on steering.
3.4.1.6 COMPENSATION
This parameter controls stator flux compensation. The ideal motor control provides a constant flux value for each working frequency. While CREEP SPEED provides low frequency feed forward flux compensation, COMPENSATION produces a feedback flux compensation effect. This is a very important setting for an application without the shaft encoder for the steering motor (such as the current application). Because by turning compensation to a value other than zero makes motor flux (and torque) independent from the battery voltage. Torque is provided even when the battery charge is low. Level 0: No compensation, but flux degradation when the current is too high. Level 1: Compensates for the drop on power MOSFETs and cables
41
Level 2: Compensates for the drop on power MOSFETs, cables and stator resistance Level 3: No compensation
3.4.1.7 AUXILIARY TIME

OVERSAT FREQ.
This parameter sets the maximum frequency for oversaturation. In an open loop system, the OVERSAT FREQ. should be set to 1.

4.1 Testing the truck directly via the trucks display unit (SICOS)
The following primary display is shown to the operator during normal operation:
The main components of the primary display are explained below. 4.1.1 Direction indicator The direction indicated by this component depends on the selected driving direction (forward or backward) and on the status of the three inputs that indicate the position of the steering wheel. The direction indicator has six outlined arrow symbols. When the operator selects the driving direction, one of the six arrows becomes filled to indicate the approximate direction of movement.
4.1.2 Battery charge level indicator The battery charge level indicator displays the battery charge level (information from the traction motor controller) to the operator in both percentage and with a battery symbol that has a level bar for every 20% of charge. When the battery has discharged to a level below 20%, a battery symbol with an exclamation mark will also appear in the upper part of the
50
display. The battery charge level indicator is displayed immediately after the main key switch is turned on and every time the truck is in standby mode.
4.1.3 Operating time indicator The operating time indicator is an hourglass symbol next to which is the operating time in hours. This indicator is displayed every time the truck is switched on and when returning from the menu to the primary display. The indicator is displayed for a short period after which it is replaced by the battery charge level indicator.
4.1.4 Truck speed indicator The truck speed indicator displays the speed (information from the traction motor controller) of the truck to the operator. The speed indicator can be set to display the speed in either km/h or mph. If a speed reduction is active, a turtle symbol is shown after the speed.
4.1.5 Lifting height indicator The lifting height indicator is displayed whenever the lifting or lowering function is executed. It shows the lifting height to the operator in either metres or feet (depending on the settings). A programmable offset is also taken into account in the displayed height value, which is the height at which the encoder zero sensor is located. If the display unit controller (SICOS) receives a height value higher than zero without receiving the zero encoder signal the display shows 22.22 m + offset.
51
4.1.6 Alarm indication When an alarm is triggered in the truck, the bottom of the display shows the controller in which the alarm occurred (e.g. ALARM ON MOD # 1) followed by the name of the alarm.

5.1.7 CHECK UP NEEDED Not used in this application, the parameter is not activated. (Programmed maintenance request.) 5.1.8 EEPROM KO EEPROM parameter managing error. 5.1.9 CLEARING EEPROM This warning appears by pressing the UP, DOWN and ENTER buttons for at least 10 seconds when turning the key switch on. When displayed, the EEPROM is being reprogrammed. Turn off the key switch before the 10 seconds has passed to cancel the procedure. 5.1.10 BATTERY LOW This alarm is triggered when the battery has discharged to below 20% of full charge. The information originates from the traction motor controller. 5.1.11 FORW + BACK This alarm indicates that the direction control is set simultaneously to both the forward and backward directions. 5.1.12 INCORRECT START This alarm appears if a pump or traction motor request is made when the key switch is turned on, or if the correct starting sequence is not followed. 5.1.13 POWER FAILURE #1 This alarm indicates a short circuit in one of the digital outputs (three auxiliary outputs) of the display unit controller. 5.1.14 STEER SENSOR KO This alarm indicates erroneous configuration of the steering switches in the steering wheel.
72
5.2.3 LOGIC FAILURE #1 This alarm indicates that an undervoltage/overvoltage protection operation has occurred. Two possible reasons for this alarm: An actual undervoltage/overvoltage situation has occurred. There is a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the overvoltage protection. In this case, the controller must be replaced.
5.2.4 LOGIC FAILURE #2 This alarm indicates a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the voltage feedback of the phases. The controller must be replaced. 5.2.5 LOGIC FAILURE #3 This alarm indicates a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the hardware current protection. The controller must be replaced. 5.2.6 CHECK UP NEEDED Not used in this application. This is a notification to the user that the programmed time for maintenance has elapsed. 5.2.7 INCORRECT START This alarm signals an incorrect starting sequence. Possible causes include: Microswitch failure Incorrect starting sequence by the operator Incorrect wiring
If the alarm persists, the controller must be replaced. 5.2.8 FORW + BACK This test is carried out continuously. An alarm is signalled if the forward and backward travel requests are made simultaneously. Possible causes include: Defective wiring Microswitch failure Incorrect operation
If the alarm persists, the controller must be replaced. 5.2.9 HANDBRAKE This alarm indicates that the truck cannot start because the handbrake switch is not closing. Possible causes include: Defective wiring Microswitch failure Incorrect operation
73
When the key switch is turned on, the controller attempts to charge the power capacitor through a power resistor, and to check that the capacitor is charged in a certain time. If there is a problem, an alarm is signalled and the main contactor is not closed. Possible causes: The charging resistor is opened There is a failure in the charging circuit There is a problem in the power modules. In this case, the controller must be replaced.
5.2.11 VMN LOW, VMN HIGH This test is carried out during the start-up sequence and in standby mode. Possible causes: There is a problem with the motor connections or the motor power circuit. Check that the three phases are correctly connected and whether there is a dispersion of the motor towards ground, or There is a failure in the controller and it must be replaced.
5.2.12 VACC NOT OK This alarm cannot occur in the traction motor controller, as the function is programmed in the display unit controller (SICOS). 5.2.13 PEDAL WIRE KO This alarm is signalled if a fault is detected in the accelerator unit wiring (XA4B:10 or XAB4:9). 5.2.14 STBY I HIGH This test carried out in standby mode. It checks that the current is 0. If not, an alarm is signalled, which inhibits machine operation. Possible causes: Current sensor failure (the controller must be replaced), or Logic failure (the controller must be replaced).
74
When the key switched is turned on, the microprocessor checks the main contactor driver (FF SR). If it does not react correctly, this alarm is triggered. The driver (FF SR) monitors the current in the main contactor coil through hardware. If the current is too high, it opens the main contactor and the alarm is signalled. Check for external short circuits and whether the resistance of the main contactor is correct. If these checks do not reveal a fault, the controller must be replaced.
5.2.15.2 DRIVER SHORTED
When the key switched is turned on, the microprocessor checks that the main contactor coil driver is not short-circuited. If it is, this alarm is signalled. The controller must be replaced.
5.2.15.3 CONTACTOR DRIVER
After the start-up sequence, the traction motor controller closes the main contactor and checks the voltage drain of the driver. If the drain is to high, this alarm is triggered. The controller must be replaced.
5.2.15.4 CONTACTOR OPEN
This alarm indicates that the logic board has driven the main contactor coil, but the contactor does not close. Two possible reasons for this:
The wires to the coil are interrupted or not well connected The tips of the contactor are not working properly
5.2.16 AUX OUTPUT KO The microprocessor checks the electromechanical brake driver. If the driver output does not correspond to the signal from the microprocessor, this alarm is signalled. The controller must be replaced. 5.2.17 HIGH TEMPERATURE This alarm indicates that the chopper temperature is over 75C. The maximum current is reduced proportionally to the temperature increase. The chopper stops when 100C is reached. If this alarm is signalled when the chopper is cold:
There is a fault in the thermal sensors wiring, There is a failure in the thermal sensor, or There is a failure in the logic.
If any of the above cases indicate faults, the controller must be replaced. 5.2.18 MOTOR TEMPERATURE This warning is signalled if in the motor temperature control, the analogue signal passes the cut-off level. The resistance of the thermal sensor is 580 ohm at 20C. If it the alarm is activated when the motor is cold, check the wiring. If the wiring is intact, the controller must be replaced. 75
5.2.19 THERMIC SENSOR KO The range of the controllers temperature sensor is always checked and a warning is signalled if it is out of range. If this alarm is triggered, check the connections of the sensor. If the sensor connections are intact, the controller must be replaced. 5.2.20 WAITING PUMP This alarm is can occur in combined systems (traction/pump). The pump motor controller has detected a failure and the traction motor controller cannot close the main contactor because of the alarm (which the traction motor controller receives over the CAN bus). Search for a failure in the pump motor controller. 5.2.21 CAN BUS KO The self-diagnostics are active when the controller is connected to the CAN bus (as in this case). This alarm is triggered if the controller does not receive any data over the CAN bus. Begin by checking the wiring. If it is intact, the problem is controller-based. Please refer to the tables at the beginning of this chapter. 5.2.22 ENCODER ERROR The encoder signals are important for system operation. If this alarm is indicated, the controller is not receiving data from the encoder. When the motor is being used, this alarm can occur only if the encoder signals disappear suddenly during running. If the fault is present when you start the motor, it will go into DC mode: the motor turns very slowly and jerkily while it draws a very high current (approximately 300 A 350 A). The encoder reading in the Tester submenu cannot cross 20 Hz. The slowly and jerkily turning motor is a sign of the same fault even without the alarm being triggered. Do not use the truck in this state. Doing so can harm the motor cables! In both cases check: For a bad contact at connector X35 at the traction motor or connector XA1D at the traction motor controller, The cables between the mentioned plugs, and For a faulty encoder in the traction motor.
Replacing the encoder will void the manufacturers warranty. To conform to warranty restrictions, the entire traction motor assembly must be replaced. 5.2.23 BATTERY LOW If battery monitoring is active, a battery discharge algorithm is carried out. When the charge level decreases to 10%, this alarm is triggered and the current is reduced to the half of the programmed value.
5.3.2 EEPROM KO This alarm indicates a fault in the area of memory in which adjustment parameters are stored. This alarm inhibits machine operation. If the defect persists after the key switch is turned off and then on, the controller must be replaced. If the alarm is not activated after restarting the truck, the previously stored parameters have been replaced with the default values. 5.3.3 LOGIC FAILURE #1 This alarm indicates that an undervoltage/overvoltage protection operation has occurred. Two possible reasons for this alarm: An actual undervoltage/overvoltage situation has occurred, or There is a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the overvoltage protection. In this case, the controller must be replaced.
5.3.4 LOGIC FAILURE #2 This alarm indicates a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the voltage feedback of the phases. The controller must be replaced. 5.3.5 LOGIC FAILURE #3 This alarm indicates a fault in the hardware section of the logic board, which manages the hardware current protection. The controller must be replaced. 5.3.6 INCORRECT START This alarm signals an incorrect starting sequence. Possible causes include: Micro switch failure Incorrect starting sequence by the operator Incorrect wiring
If the alarm persists, the controller must be replaced. 5.3.7 CAPACITOR CHARGE When the key switch is turned on, the controller attempts to charge the power capacitor through a power resistor, and to check that the capacitor is charged in a certain time. If there is a problem, an alarm is signalled and the main contactor is not closed. (See Figure 5.1) Possible causes: The charging resistor is opened There is a failure is the charging circuit There is a problem in the power modules. In this case, the controller must be replaced.
77
5.3.8 VMN LOW, VMN HIGH This test is carried out during the start-up sequence and in standby mode. Possible causes: There is a problem with the motor connections or the motor power circuit. Check that the three phases are correctly connected and whether there is a dispersion of the motor towards ground, and There is a failure in the controller and it must be replaced.
5.3.9 VACC NOT OK This alarm cannot occur in the pump motor controller, as the function is programmed in the display unit controller (SICOS). 5.3.10 PEDAL WIRE KO This alarm is signalled if a fault is detected in the wiring of the fingertip control unit (XA4D:1 or XAD4:3; XA4D:4 or XA4D:6; XA4D:7 or XA4D:9; XA4D:10 or XA4D:12). 5.3.11 STBY I HIGH This test carried out in standby mode. It checks that the current is 0. If not, an alarm is signalled, which inhibits machine operations. Possible causes: Current sensor failure (the controller must be replaced) Logic failure (the controller must be replaced)
COIL SHORTED
When the key switched is turned on, the microprocessor checks the main contactor driver (FF SR). If it does not react correctly, this alarm is triggered. The driver (FF SR) monitors the current in the main contactor coil through hardware. If the current is too high, it opens the main contactor and the alarm is signalled. Check for external short circuits and whether the resistance of the main contactor is correct. If these checks do not reveal a fault, the controller must be replaced.
5.3.12.2 DRIVER SHORTED
When the key switched is turned on, the microprocessor checks that the main contactor coil driver is not short-circuited. If it is, this alarm is signalled. The controller must be replaced.
5.3.12.3 CONTACTOR DRIVER

78
5.3.12.4
CONTACTOR OPEN
This alarm indicates that the logic board has driven the main contactor coil, but the contactor does not close. Two possible reasons for this:
The wires to the coil are interrupted or not well connected The tips of the contactor are not working properly
5.3.13 AUX OUTPUT KO The microprocessor checks the electromechanical brake driver. If the driver output does not correspond to the signal from the microprocessor, this alarm is signalled. The controller must be replaced. 5.3.14 HIGH TEMPERATURE This alarm indicates that the chopper temperature is over 75C. The maximum current is reduced proportionally to the temperature increase. The chopper stops when 100C is reached. If this alarm is signalled when the chopper is cold:
There is a fault in the thermal sensors wiring, There is a failure in the thermal sensor, or There is a failure in the logic.
If any of the above cases indicate faults, the controller must be replaced. 5.3.15 MOTOR TEMPERATURE This warning is signalled if in the motor temperature control, the analogue signal passes the cut-off level. The resistance of the thermal sensor is 580 ohm at 20C. If it the alarm is activated when the motor is cold, check the wiring. If the wiring is intact, the controller must be replaced. 5.3.16 THERMIC SENSOR KO The range of the controllers temperature sensor is always checked and a warning is signalled if it is out of range. If this alarm is triggered, check the connections of the sensor. If the sensor connections are intact, the controller must be replaced. 5.3.17 WAITING TRACTION This alarm is can occur in combined systems (traction/pump). The pump motor controller has detected a failure and the traction motor controller cannot close the main contactor because of the alarm (which the traction motor controller receives over the CAN bus). Search for a failure in the traction motor controller. 5.3.18 CAN BUS KO The self-diagnostics are active when the controller is connected to the CAN bus (as in this case). This alarm is triggered if the controller does not receive any data over the CAN bus. Begin by checking the wiring. If it is intact, the problem is controller-based. Please refer to the tables at the beginning of this chapter.
79
5.3.19 ENCODER ERROR The encoder signals are important for system operation. If this alarm is indicated, the controller is not receiving data from the encoder. When the motor is being used, this alarm can occur only if the encoder signals disappear suddenly during running. If the fault is present when you start the motor, it will go into DC mode: the motor turns very slowly and jerkily while it draws a very high current (approximately 300 A 350 A). The encoder reading in the Tester submenu cannot cross 20 Hz. The slowly and jerkily turning motor is a sign of the same fault even without the alarm being triggered. Do not use the truck in this state. Doing so can harm the motor cables! In both cases check: For a bad contact at plug X36 at the traction motor or plug XA2D at the pump motor controller, The cables between the mentioned plugs, and For a faulty encoder in the pump motor.
Replacing the encoder will void the manufacturers warranty. To conform to warranty restrictions, the entire pump motor assembly must be replaced. 5.3.20 BATTERY LOW In this application, the pump motor controller does not activate this alarm. The traction motor controller handles battery monitoring.
80
5.4.4 MICRO SLAVE #3 This alarm indicates that the supervisor microprocessor (SM) has detected an analogue status signal originating from the master microprocessor (MM) indicating that the SP POT is frozen while the signal from the potentiometer is changing. Not used in this application. 5.4.5 MICRO SLAVE #4 This alarm indicates that the supervisor microprocessor (SM) has detected that the motor is turning opposite to the active command. Not used in this application. (Only for two potentiometer-based steering and automatic centring.)
5.4.6
MICRO SLAVE #5
This alarm indicates that the supervisor microprocessor (SM) has detected that the motor is stationary when the command to run is active. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.7 MICRO SLAVE #6 This alarm indicates that the supervisor microprocessor (SM) has detected that the motor is turning opposite to the stepper motor command. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.8 MICRO SLAVE #7 This alarm indicates that the supervisor microprocessor (SM) has opened its safety contact, but has not specified the reason on the local status bus. For example, this alarm is triggered when the SM is absent or broken. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.9 KM CLOSED This alarm indicates that the Master Microprocessor (MM) has detected that its safety contact is closed before the command has been issued. The alarm can be due to incorrect installation. Two cascaded safety switches are internally connected (see Figure 5.2). They have three diagnostic points (low voltage, mid point and high voltage), which are read by software. When the switches are open, the three diagnostic points expect to be at different potential values due to the resistances. If the outside interface connected on pin #1 and pin #7 of connector CNB is equal to the midpoint at one end, it looks like the switch is closed before it is driven, which triggers the alarm. Therefore, the safety switch should be connected directly to the supply source (positive or negative pole of the battery), without intervening switches.
81
If the alarm occurs even though wiring has been checked, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.10 KS CLOSED This alarm indicates that the master microprocessor (MM) has detected that the supervisor microprocessors (SM) safety contact is closed before the command has been issued. The alarm can be due to incorrect installation. Two cascaded safety switches are internally connected (see Figure 5.2). They have three diagnostic points (low voltage, mid point and high voltage), which are read by software. When the switches are open, the three diagnostic points expect to be at different potential values due to the resistances. If the outside interface connected on pin #1 and pin #7 of connector CNB is equal to the midpoint at one end, it looks like the switch is closed before it is driven, which triggers the alarm. Therefore, the safety switch should be directly connected directly to the supply source (positive or negative pole of the battery), without intervening switches. If the alarm occurs even though wiring has been checked to be correct, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.11 KM OPEN This alarm indicates that the master microprocessor (MM) has detected that its safety contact is open after the command to close has been issued. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.12 KS OPEN This alarm indicates that the master microprocessor (MM) has detected that the supervisor microprocessors safety contact is open after the command to close has been issued. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.13 DATA ACQUISITION This alarm occurs if ADJUSTMENT #1 is set to level 1. Turning the key switch off and then on will clear the alarm. ADJUSTMENT #1 must stay at level 0 according the parameter table.
82
5.4.14 POWER FAILURE #1, #2 and #3 These alarms are triggered if a motor phase is missing. The alarm is activated when at least one phase current is less than 6 Aac while the applied frequency differs from zero. Verify the continuity of the motor cables and motor windings. 5.4.15 LOGIC FAILURE #1 This alarm is activated when the actual voltage between phases U and V differs from the desired value. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.16 LOGIC FAILURE #2 This alarm is activated when the actual voltage between phases U and W differs from the desired value. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.17 HIGH CURRENT This alarm indicates that the output current amplifier has been over the Imax current level (not adjustable) for longer than about one second. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.18 MAIN CONT. OPEN This alarms indicates that the traction motor controller is not closing the main contactor (K12) after the key switch is turned on. The fault is not in the electrical power steering controller (EPS). Troubleshoot the traction motor controller for the fault. 5.4.19 KEY OFF This alarm indicates that the display unit controller (SICOS) has given a key off command over the CAN bus. This alarm is removed only when the display unit controller revokes the command. 5.4.20 CAN BUS KO The self-diagnostics are active when the controller is connected to the CAN bus (as in this case). This alarm is triggered if the controller does not receive any data over the CAN bus. Begin by checking the wiring. If it is intact, the problem is controller-based. Please refer to the tables at the beginning of this chapter. 5.4.21 STEER SENSOR KO Not used in this application. (A stepper motor is in use.) This alarm indicates that the tacho generator in the steering wheel is open or short-circuited.
83
5.4.22 D LINE SENSOR KO This alarm can occur when the stepper motor channel on XA3A:3 is open. Check the stepper motor wires and measure the stepper motor line Q resistance (should be close to 30 ohm between XA3A:3 and XA3A:7). If the problem is not due to wiring, the stepper motor must be replaced. 5.4.23 Q LINE SENSOR KO This alarm can occur when the stepper motor channel on XA3B:9 is open. Check the stepper motor wires and measure the stepper motor line D resistance (should be close to 30 ohm between XA3B:9 and XA3B:4). If the problem is not due to wiring, the stepper motor must be replaced. 5.4.24 F.B OUT OF RANGE Not used in this application. This alarm is triggered if the wiper voltage of the steering angle feedback potentiometer is below 0.3 Vdc or above 4.7 Vdc (indicating a broken connection). 5.4.25 SP OUT OF RANGE Not used in this application.

If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.27 GAIN EEPROM KO This alarm will occur at system start-up, if reserved EEPROM cells have been damaged. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.28 HIGH TEMPERATURE This alarm occurs if the temperature of the controllers base plate exceeds 76C. Let the controller cool down. If the alarm reoccurs with a cool controller, it must be replaced. 5.4.29 STBY I HIGH This alarm occurs if the rest state current signals (measured in phases U and W) are not in the 2.5 0.3 Vdc range immediately after the key switch is If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced.
turned on and in the 2.5 0.15 Vdc range when in the steady state.
84
5.4.30 VMN NOT OK This alarm occurs in the initial rest state when at least in one of the motor phases is high and not in the 2.5 0.3 Vdc range. If the alarm reoccurs, the controller must be replaced. 5.4.31 LOGIC FAILURE #3 This alarm occurs in rest state if the motor voltage between Vv Vu is high and not in the 0 0.25 Vdc range.

92
The lifting function of the truck operates as follows. The operator requests lifting by moving the lifting/lowering fingertip control towards the lifting position. The main hydraulic pump starts, draws hydraulic fluid from the tank and routes it to the P port in the hydraulic manifold. The lifting speed is controlled by the speed of the hydraulic pump motor. Pressurised hydraulic fluid is routed to main relief valve, the M2 valve, and to valves M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, and M8. The M2 magnetic valve is activated, which causes the lower envelope (on the hydraulic schematic diagram) to move up and open the port. Pressurised hydraulic fluid then enters the 93
lifting/lowering spool, which causes the lower envelope to move up and open the lifting port. Pressurised hydraulic fluid then flows to the proportional lowering valve to shift the bottom envelope up and close the valve. Finally, the pressurised hydraulic fluid flows through the check valve, to the AS port, and out through manifold port A to the velocity fuses and to the lifting cylinders.
The lowering function operates as follows. The operator requests lowering by moving the fingertip control towards the lowering position.
94
The M1 valve is pulsed according to the requested on time. The more on time, the more pressure is applied to the lifting/lowering spool, which moves the spool into the lowering position. Hydraulic fluid pressure is reduced on the left side of the proportional lowering valve, which causes the bottom envelope return to the upper or open position. Note: There still is enough pressure available for the M1 valve to activate the lifting/lowering spool. The hydraulic fluid returns to the tank at the requested rate, which is indicated by the position of the fingertip control.
95
The reaching function operates as follows. The operator requests reaching by moving the reaching/retracting fingertip control towards the reaching position. The main hydraulic pump starts. The M4 valve is activated, which moves the bottom envelope into the left position. Pilot fluid flows from the check valve to the top of the pilot-operated flow restrictor and shifts the envelope before the M4-M3 valve. Pressurised 96
hydraulic fluid then flows through the B1 port to the piston side of the reach cylinder. Ram side fluid is returned via port A1 through the filter to the tank.
The retracting function operates as follows. The operator requests retracting by moving the reaching/retracting fingertip control towards the retracting position. The main hydraulic pump starts. The M3 valve is activated, which moves the bottom envelope into the right position. Pilot fluid flows from the check valve to the top of the pilot-operated flow restrictor and shifts the envelope before the M4-M3 valve. Pressurised

1. Connect a calibrated pressure gauge (300 bar) to the lifting pressure test port (AS). 2. Loosen the relief valve locknut and unscrew the high-pressure relief valve screw. 3. Place a rated load on to the forks. 4. Reconnect the battery connector and turn the key switch on. 5. Start the lifting system and turn the pressure relief valve screw clockwise until the carriage starts to lift. Note the pressure required to elevate the carriage above the free lifting stage (carriage and telescopes elevated). 6. Adjust the pressure relief valve to a pressure of 5 to 10 bar greater than the values observed in step 5. This can be done by chaining the mast sections together or by adding more weight to the forks. 7. After the adjustment is complete, tighten the relief valve locknut. 8. Recheck the pressure. If the value has changed, repeat the procedure until the correct pressure is attained. 9. Turn the key switch off. Disconnect the battery connector. 10. Remove the pressure gauge from the lifting pressure test port and replace the cap screw. 11. Check the lifting system for proper operation.

7. Compare the lowering time with the original one. If the new lowering time is longer, continue from step 8. If the lowering time is not longer, repeat steps 5 and 6 until the result is longer than the original recorded lowering time. 8. Tighten the screw of the lowering speed valve two full turns and repeat step 4. Compare the lowering time with the original one. If the lowering time is longer, repeat step 8. If the new lowering time is equal to the original, you are close to the final result and need only to tighten the lowering valve locknut. 9. Check the lowering system for proper operation. This adjustment has now been carried out to make sure that the electrical and hydraulic functions are in balance and that the system is working properly.
