Potain IGO T85 Hydraulic Pump not working

Went to start to tower up and moved toggle switch on remote to the right.  Didn’t hear the normal “whine” of the hyraulic pump.  It ended up tripping the breaker Q940M.  Flipped the toggle back and forth a couple times to get it to work and it didn’t.  Motor was VERY HOT

Took motor off from pump with the 4 allen screws.  Flipped the toggle a couple times and it broke free and ran

Re mounted motor and it worked like a champ

High Powered Antenna Channel Change

Had a customer that was loosing remote function while on the job and had full battery and full signal.  It would lose signal and go to the Potain Screen

We tried lots of different things and eventually ended up changing the channel on the remote.  If you change the channel on the remote you must also change the dip switches on the high powered antenna.  See post about that.

Please note that it is possible to just switch groups and still be on the same channel which does nothing.  Changing the group does not necessarily mean that you change the channel.  For example channel 3 is both apart of group 1 and group 3.

To change the group on the remote

Remote off

Estop down

Hold ENTER button next to screen Turn on remote

Potain MA 13 with V1 processor and remote

 

Had to verify where the jumpers were at on the processor and then match that up with the chart attached and change the dip switches in the remote to get it to work.

This will just get the remote to talk to the crane but doesn’t mean the display will work.  In this case they didn’t match and I had to order new card for processor which is easier to change out then the remote card.

Liebherr 81k.1 Radio Remote Receiver

The cord for the antenna got cut and we could not get the receiver to send out a signal.  It has power but on the front of the receiver, there are LED lights.  We had power but not the second light down.  It is red until it hooks up with the remote then it goes green.  We called HBC and they had us remove the cover and check all the fuses there is a very small 1 AMP fuse shown in the picture.  It had a red led next to it which meant it was blown.  We soldered a jumper with a 5 amp fuse around it and it all worked.
It doesn’t matter what length the antenna cable is for connecting to the remote.
