6. Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your ZL-7918C controller, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Ingen strøm/skærm slukket:
- Check the main power supply to the controller.
- Verify AC-L and AC-N wiring connections (Terminals 13-14).
- Ensure the power source is within the 100-240Vac range.
- Forkerte temperatur-/fugtighedsmålinger:
- Check if the temperature and humidity sensors are correctly connected to terminals 1-4.
- Ensure sensors are not damaged or obstructed.
- Verify sensor placement within the incubator for accurate readings.
- Consider calibrating the sensors through the advanced settings if readings are consistently off.
- Heater/Fan/Motor Not Activating:
- Check the wiring for the specific output device (e.g., HEAT1, HUMI, CIR. FAN).
- Ensure the set temperature/humidity is outside the current measured value to trigger the output.
- Verify the output device itself is functional (e.g., heater element, fan motor).
- Check the load capacity of the output; exceeding max wattage/amperage can prevent operation.
- Egg Turning Malfunction:
- Verify connections to RIGHT and LEFT egg turning motor terminals.
- Check the egg turning period and driving time settings in the controller.
- Ensure the egg turning motor is functional.
- Alarm Triggering Frequently:
- Review the alarm threshold settings in the advanced menu.
- Check for stable temperature and humidity conditions within the incubator.
- Ensure sensors are providing accurate readings.
For persistent issues, refer to the full product manual or contact LILYTECH customer support.
7. Brugertips
- Sensorplacering: Position temperature and humidity sensors away from direct heat sources or water to get the most accurate readings of the general incubator environment.
- Indledende kalibrering: It is recommended to verify the accuracy of the temperature and humidity sensors against a known good reference thermometer/hygrometer upon initial setup. Adjust calibration settings if necessary.
- Stabilt miljø: For optimal performance, ensure the incubator is placed in a stable environment, free from significant temperature fluctuations or drafts.
- Regelmæssig overvågning: Even with automatic control, regularly monitor the incubator's conditions and the controller's display to ensure everything is operating as expected.
- Power Outage Gendannelse: Familiarize yourself with how the controller behaves after a power outage, especially regarding saved settings.
