The pump is not running – Check if the pump is waiting for a remote start/stop signal. Or make sure the Start arrow is pressed and the pump is Ready. If the pump is in 4-20ma mode or Frequency input mode, check the incoming signals at the pump to make sure pump is receiving the proper signal, and ensure the cables are connected to the correct inputs at the rear of the pump.
Electricals

The Remote Start/Stop is turning on/off or chattering – Check M12 cables integrity and proper connection to pump. Check that all signal cables are shielded and properly grounded. Ensure signal wiring is not located or run next to high voltage power or equipment generating EMI. Ensure power wiring to the pump is clean/conditioned.
The 4-20mA signal is dropping or incorrect – Check M12 cables integrity and proper connection to pump. Ensure 4-20mA signal is powered via 15-24VDC. Check that all signal cables are shielded and properly grounded. Ensure signal wiring is not located or run next to high voltage power or equipment generating EMI. Ensure power wiring to the pump is clean/conditioned.
The Display reads error code – Follow instructions on the pump and contact factory for assistance. Some error codes may be corrected with a current Firmware Update. See System section for details on firmware updates.
