Possible Causes

  • Let-off drive motor or controller fault
  • Back rest or tension sensor calibration drift
  • Warp beam diameter calculation error

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Step 1: Verify the let-off motor and controller operation
    System maintains correct tension
  2. Step 2: Check the tension sensor calibration
    Sensor reads accurately
  3. Step 3: Verify the warp beam diameter setting
    Diameter matches the actual beam

How to Reset

To reset: Restore correct let-off tension, then clear the alarm.
