Troubleshooting

Contact block not detected by control system

Verify that the contact block is securely clipped to the power base. Ensure wiring to the OF and SD terminals is correct and tight. Check the corresponding input channels on your PLC or control system.

Inconsistent status signaling (OF or SD)

Inspect the wiring for any loose connections or breaks. Ensure the TeSys U starter itself is functioning correctly. Clean the contacts on the power base and the auxiliary block if there is visible contamination.

Difficulty mounting the block

Ensure you are using a compatible TeSys U power base. Make sure no obstructions are preventing the block from seating properly. Apply firm, even pressure during mounting.
