Receipt & Inspection

Upon receipt of register shipment, be sure to inspect the packaging and the register assembly for any damage be-

fore signing the receipt of the shipment. Notify the delivery company about possible damage and refuse receipt of

the shipment.

Registers are individually boxed and are protected with static resistant packing material. Each package is identified

with the register assembly part number, description, serial number. Verify the register model is the correct model,

size, and configuration as ordered. Contact your distributor if there is any discrepancy or question.

clothing and shoes need to be utilized. Transport the register package to the installation site with appropriate trans-

portation methods, careful not to damage the register.

Be careful of any loose or protruding staples from the packaging, as they can be very sharp and may potentially

cause injury.

If foam has been used to protect register, carefully remove top foam layer before attempting to remove register as-

sembly from box. Foam packaging maybe formed around the register assembly making it difficult to remove. Do

not lift the register assembly by wires or anything other than the metal body of the register. Do not insert objects or

cables into the register unless stated. Removing register assembly from packaging without adhering these warn-

ings may cause serious injury to you and/or the register.

Appropriate precautions should be taken regarding any personal, environmental and material compatibility with the

end use system.

Introduction

The TCS 3000 register is a fully integrated custody transfer flow computer that will control all vehicle delivery operations.

The Open Software Architecture provides the option of a simple “Pump & Print” delivery or a custom measurement solu-

tion. The TCS 3000 features a 4.5”x 3.5” full color VGA display screen, multiple delivery screens and a flexible mounting

with backlit alpha-numeric keypad for the user interface. Available in flexible mounting configurations of 75 or 90 degree

displays for meter mounting, and a remote mounting.

As an flow computer with open software architecture, there will always be a need to add features to the register as the

industry applications evolve. Therefore please be reminded to contact the factory for periodic updates.

The TCS 3000 electronic register is a fully integrated flow computer that will control all delivery operations. The modular

design and open software architecture provide you with a tailored system that is expandable for future needs. The TCS

3000 features a large easy view VGA screen, alpha-numeric keypad and open printer interface for simple “Pump and

Print” deliveries. Software features offer complete flexibility of delivery screen information and view, preset, price/tax,

ticket format and password protection.

Optional GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Cellular capability enables the TCS 3000 to improve your product security and ease

access to your delivery data to reduce your operation costs. Many additional features are available (multiple product

delivery, additive injection, density/temperature correction, multiple valve & pump control, etc.) to enhance your measure-

ment solution.

TCS 3000 - This manual will help guide you with the setup confirmation and calibration of the register. Additional infor-

mation will be provided for wiring instruction and auxiliary devices to integrate into the register.

Trouble Shooting

NOTICE DANGER

It may be necessary to break Weights & Measure seals to

perform certain troubleshooting steps in this guide. Con-

tact your supervisor or local Weights & Measures authori-

ties for information before breaking any seals.

Serious Injury or Death may Result – Fire, Explosion, and

Electrical Shock Hazard.

Only trained and authorized personnel should perform

troubleshooting. Use extreme caution when troubleshoot-

ing and taking all electrical measurements. Be sure that

equipment is in a well ventilated area and that hazardous

or flammable vapors are not and will not be present dur-

ing testing. If equipment is located in a hazardous envi-

ronment, it may be necessary to remove the equipment

and perform troubleshooting in a safe area.

Trouble Shooting

To comply with Weights & Measures requirements, it is necessary to start and stop each delivery with a fully packed

hose. Normally, this will be the case. However, there are times where the hose is not fully packed (e.g. after a preset

delivery). As such, the hose must be packed and the register zeroed prior to making the next deliver.

NOTE: This procedure will not work for an empty or dry hose. If more than 1 gallon or 5

Liters of liquid is required to pack the hose, a delivery ticket must be printed.

To pack the hose at the start of a delivery:

Press the Start Button, this energizes the solenoids. Allow the pump to pack the hose.

TCS 3000 Trouble Shooting Guide

The TCS3000 troubleshooting guide covers most common problem situations. Call your Total Controls Service Center

for any problems that are not covered in this guide.

Trouble Shooting Guidelines:

1) Before attempting to troubleshoot the TCS 3000 system, become familiar with the operation and set-up of the specific

installation.

2) Make sure all electrical connections are secure and tight.

3) Make sure all terminal blocks are firmly connected.

4) ALWAYS use a good digital multimeter. Voltage levels are critical to proper system operation. Use an accurate,

reliable multimeter to test for proper voltages at the start of any service procedure. Voltage requirements are listed

under each component.

NOTE: Check for proper operating voltages before changing the circuit board. If the circuit board needs to be

changed, be sure to remove all power to the TCS 3000.

5) If an error occurs during a delivery, the message will appear on the Display and print on the delivery ticket. The

delivery ticket will print an error message that can be useful in troubleshooting. This ticket will automatically print.

Examine the prover ticket to make sure all set-up fields are accurate, e.g. pulses per unit volume, temperature

coefficient, and base temperature.

6) NEVER remove a terminal block or jumper with the power on.

7) NEVER install a terminal block or jumper with the power on.

Trouble Shooting

8) NEVER force a terminal block into its location.

9) NEVER exchange or reposition terminal blocks on the circuit board.

10) In case of a major problem such as a burned or water-damaged circuit board, evaluate possible causes before

replacing it and turn the power back on.

11) Isolate the problem before changing the circuit board.

12) Return faulty circuit boards with the proper forms, concisely completed.

There may be several probable causes for a system malfunction. Listed on the next 3 pages are several probable caus-

es to aid in returning the system to operation as quickly as possible. The list is not all-inclusive and should only be used

as a guide.

1. With the key in the accessory position, check the battery voltage to the circuit

board. Use the negative terminal as DC ground. While the TCS 3000 will

power-up at +9VDC, it is recommended that the input be at least +12.6VDC.

2. Check the 7.5A, in-line fuse for continuity. It is located in the accessory power

line. Replace if necessary.

3. If the green light blinks fast it is doing what it is supposed to, but then it will go

to a slow blink. If you see red, then you do not have enough power on the

4. If the red light comes on and the unit doesn’t power-up. Check the voltage if

the voltage is OK but the temperature is -20 this will indicate that the heater is

warming the display to prevent any damage to the VGA display and should

come-up shortly

1. For safety reasons, remove the 7.5A, in-line fuse from the accessory power

cable.

2. Unscrew the 3 pin power connector. Inspect for stray wire strands and

visible shorts.

3. Inspect the full length of the power cable. Look for damaged insulation, which

may cause shorting between the cable and ground potential (e.g. truck frame

or chassis). If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced.

4. Replace the 7.5A fuse and re-install the wires into the terminal connector.

5. If the 7.5A blows again, then replace the power cable.

6. If the 7.5A fuse blows after replacing the power cable, then replace the TCS

3000 terminal circuit board.

2. Turn on all truck accessories (headlamps, 2 way radio, heater, etc.). Engage

the hose reel and monitor the DV voltage at ## using terminal ## as positive

and terminal ## as ground. If the voltage drops below +10VDC, the truck

electrical system may not be adequate to handle the current load for the TCS

3000. It may be necessary to upgrade the electrical system to accommodate

the 3-amp TCS 3000 current requirements.

3. Verify proper grounding of the TCS 3000. Refer to the TCS 3000 Installation

Manual for proper grounding procedures.

ronment. TCS is not

responsible for puls-

er failures caused by

excessive vibration.

1. Check the pulser output.

2. Open the TCS 3000 cover by loosening the two bolts that hold the cover

closed. Using a reliable multimeter, measure the following DC voltages on

terminal block is connected to the circuit board. Use terminal as ground refer-

ence.

1. Insert a delivery ticket into the Epson printer and start a delivery.

2. Start a delivery and listen for the audible clicking sound from the solenoids.

3. If there is NO audible click form the solenoid, check the voltage to Pin +

and 0 V of terminal block Solenoid 1. While the TCS 3000 is still in deliv-

ery, use a reliable multimeter to measure the following DC voltages on the

circuit board. Use 0 pin as a ground or frame ground.

4. If there is an audible click from the solenoid (but still no flow), this may be

an indication of a mechanical problem with the main valve or its associate

components. Contact your TCS3000 Service Center.

printed.

The delivery ticket must be printed when the printer is communicating with the

TCS 3000. To move on without the printer, either disable the printer or have

the Select Printer changed to None under Printer Settings. You will be able to

Re-print Tickets under the Select Function.

“Must Know” & How To

Start Up “Must Knows” for Setup Configuration & Calibration

1) Each Product must be thoroughly configured and calibrated in W&M Settings. There are many parameters that need

to be configured to ensure your system operates properly. Failure to complete the Product Configuration may result

in the TCS3000 to not function correctly.

2) Products that have been calibrated may appear either as an Active or Inactive Product. The TCS 3000 must have at

least 1 Active Product in order to Begin a Shift and Start a Delivery. Products may only be Activated or Deactivated

after a Shift has Ended.

3) The Calibration Screw must be threaded completely into the Calibration setting, or you will not be able to begin a

shift or start a delivery.
