How do I troubleshoot the KBDE Display on a Picanol loom?

To troubleshoot the KBDE Display (BE151817) on a Picanol Omniplus 800 loom, follow these steps:

1. Check for Display Issues

• Blank Screen: If the display is completely blank, verify that the loom is receiving power. Check the power supply to the display and ensure all connections are secure.
• Flickering or Dim Display: This could indicate a loose connection, an aging backlight, or issues with the power supply. Inspect the power cables and connectors for any signs of wear or damage.

2. Inspect Physical Connections

• Cable Connections: Ensure that all cables connecting the KBDE display to the loom’s control unit are firmly plugged in. Look for any signs of corrosion or loose connections, which could cause intermittent issues.
• Damaged Cables: Check for any cuts, kinks, or abrasions on the cables. Replace damaged cables if necessary.

3. Reboot the Loom

• Power Cycle: Turn off the loom completely, wait for a few minutes, and then power it back on. This simple step can sometimes resolve temporary display glitches.

4. Check for Error Messages

• On-Screen Errors: If the display shows an error message, refer to the loom’s manual for specific troubleshooting steps related to that error code.
• No Response: If the display is on but unresponsive, it could be a software issue. Proceed with checking the software and firmware.

5. Software and Firmware Updates

6. Calibrate the Display

• Touch Screen Calibration: If the display is a touch screen and not responding correctly, access the calibration settings and follow the instructions to recalibrate the screen.

7. Test with a Replacement Display

• Swap Displays: If possible, test the loom with a different KBDE display to see if the issue persists. This will help determine if the problem is with the display unit itself or another component.

8. Check the Control Unit

• Control Unit Functionality: If the display is not receiving commands or showing incorrect information, the issue might lie with the loom’s control unit. Inspect the control unit for any signs of malfunction.

9. Consult the Manual
