10.7 Troubleshooting Stuck Transfer Button
The Transfer Button is a normally open, momentary switch. The only time the switch should close is when it
is depressed to take command or when entering or departing various other functions. In the event that the
Transfer Button became stuck in the closed position, the following will occur:
• The Transfer Button would have to be closed for 15 seconds or more.
• The throttle and clutch are not affected.
• A solid tone is heard from all remote stations, until the button’s contact opens or transfer to another
remote station has taken place.
If a Control Head that is not in command has a stuck transfer button, the following will happen:
• If Control Head levers are positioned at Neutral/Idle, a solid tone is heard from all remote stations.
• If Control Head levers are positioned other than Neutral/Idle, a three (3) second tone is heard from all
remote stations.
• Error Code 33 - 42, depending on which remote station, will be shown on the Processor Display.
• Command can be taken at any other operational remote station.
• After one (1) second command can be regained at the remote station with the stuck button as long as
the problem has been corrected by depressing the transfer button.
If a stuck Transfer Button is suspected, this can be verified by looking at the Station Select status (1 or 0) as
outlined in Section 10.6.3: Remote Station Select.
• An Error Code 33 - 42 will be shown on the Display, depending on which Station is experiencing the
problem.
