    I'd recommend looking at your UnIop settings. Do the labels on the back match version/firmware. Is the same software loaded on both? Are the wash settings complete? I don't know...you've not confirmed nor denied any of your HMI settings? By complete: if/when you switched the UniOp, it is...

    Apologize, I don't recall the exact name of the cable... CA05, CA10, CA20 something like that. It was custom made per the GE/UniOp specification. And the company created the cable with incorrect resistors (99 ohm instead of the 1k ohm), and the incorrect resistance also caused Communications...

    Verify carriage is at its home position. Verify your acw sends a signal to the plc (one of the relays in your acw will activate), Verify the plc receives the signal at either a1 a2 a3 or a4 (depending on wash selected) which will momentarily light. -if good, then your plc to acw connections...

    You should be good on the cable then...'if it worked before'. Follow Bricks advice, mount your phone to record the PLC lights as you trigger the ACW to send a wash signal (ensures that part of the system is functioning). I don't recall which PLC inputs/outputs are to be On/Off as the default...

    The incorrect cable will cause that exact error....along with other things. Recommend you take the pages I sent, print them out and use them as you scroll thru the UniOp settings, write down your current settings directly on the paper (modify the pages to fit your version). So you have a...

    Post a pict of UniOp label from the back, version and firmware number. Someone may have a matching machine. You obviosly need to get your PLC communicating with your UniOp, and we always assume you have the correct cable connecting the PLC to the UniOp (it is a custom made non-standard...

    Lava bath sheet is more of a drip than a sheet.

    Haven't seen discussion on the main factor. Sheet Foamers use a lot of product, yes; but they also use a lot of water flow. Consider the total gpm going to the sheet foamer. Search the mfg site, or call them, and make sure your pump gpm is sufficient; injector gpm is sufficient; and lines are...

    eCatcher for Washworld - For those who use Apple phones

    Turn off your phone WiFi so it is only using the cell towers. No Wifi, that way your phone is acting like it is not at the wash location, and is relying only on Cellular. If you want to use only WiFi, then put it on airplane mode, and only enable WiFi on your phone. Then you phone will connect...

    Word is that Omaha Nebraska is the testing grounds for new products to market. Omaha apparently is considered the 'average' market and the location that companies go to get products tested on 'average' Americans. If a product fails in Omaha, generally it gets shelved, or modified and retested...
