Programmable Skipline Controller
PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION
Controller not turning on Fuse, battery, or wiring
1. Check fuse located next to 12V
RoadLazer battery.
2. Check battery voltage. Replace if
necessary.
3. Inspect wiring at battery for corro-
sion. Inspect control cable for dam-
age.
Controller shutting down or cutting out
during striping
Battery or wiring
1. Check battery voltage. A weak bat-
tery can drop voltage low enough to
cause intermittent shut down.
2. Check wiring.
3. Ground control box to vehicle chas-
sis.
System Delay not turning on System not configured for striping or is
shut off
1. Remove gun arm from stowed posi-
tion, and start up engine. System
delay will not turn on unless you are
ready to stripe.
2. System Delay must be turned back
on after engine is turned off.
Controller not displaying MPH (KM/H),
or readout is erratic
Gun arm sensor or sensor wiring
1. Check sensor (524) located on gun
arm wheel assembly. Set sensor
approximately 1/8 in. (3 mm) from
target plate.
2. Check sensor head for damage.
Replace if damaged.
3. Check sensor wiring by removing
solenoid valve cover (519).
System Delay actual distance not pre-
cisely matching programmed distance
Programmed distance needs fine tuning
1. This is usually true. Get it as close as
possible, then spray one additional
test line and try to hit the start point.
2. Measure difference between start
point and where paint guns turn on. If
paint guns turn on before start point,
add measured difference to current
system delay distance. If paint guns
turn on after start point, subtract
measured difference.
