Please read the final page of “U-WAVEPAK User’s Manual“ in “PDF_Manual” folder of   the CD supplied as a standard accessory about Mitutoyo service center.  1) Confirmation of U-WAVE-R (1) The green LED will not light up (or start blinking). •  Is the power to the personal computer turned on? •  Is the USB cable connected between the U-WAVE-R and personal computer? The U-WAVE-R is supplied with power from the personal computer, and thereby no power   will be supplied to the U-WAVE-R unless the personal computer is turned on. Check the   USB cable for proper connection. •  Is the USB driver installed?  (2) The red LED is blinking with the green LED being lit. •  Is any undue force applied to the USB cable? Check the connecting condition of the USB cable. Also, the USB cable might be broken internally. Check it out by using a new USB cable.  (3) The green LED and red LED keep blinking alternately. •  Has setup been completed? Referring to the U-WAVEPAK User’s Manual, set up the system correctly. •  Does any U-WAVE-R with the same group ID and band ID exist near the U-WAVE-R?   Set different information for each ID in the U-WAVE-R.      2) Confirmation of U-WAVE-T (1) Data transmission always fails and the red LED lights up. •  Is the LCD of the Measuring tool put in the count display state? Communication is not possible if the LCD on the connected Measuring tool is turned off or in the data entry state. Put the Measuring tool LCD in the count display state. •  Has the battery voltage come down? If the battery is consumed to a low voltage, the red LED is blinking and data transmission is disabled. Replace the battery with a new one. •  Is the U-WAVE-T installed correctly on the Measuring tool? Recheck that the U-WAVE-T and the Measuring tool are properly mated using the supplied connecting cable. Also, when using the specific connecting cable (02AZD791A, B), be sure to mate the black-marked side of the connecting cable with the U-WAVE-T. •  Is the device ID described in the label on the U-WAVE-T set in the connecting state on the U-WAVEPAK? Unless it is in the connecting state, communication is not implemented. Referring to read the “U-WAVE Quick manual “ and “U-WAVEPAK User’s Manual“ in   “PDF_Manual” folder of the CD supplied as a standard accessory, set up the system correctly.  (2) The U-WAVE-R search cannot be executed, blinking orange color LED disappears, and red LED blinks. •  Is the U-WAVE-T installed correctly on the Measuring tool? Recheck that the U-WAVE-T and the Measuring tool are properly mated using the supplied connecting cable.       If U-WAVE-T is installed correctly on the Measuring tool correctly, initialize the setting   information and then retry communication after referring “section 6 (2) in U-WAVE-T manual”  3) Confirmation of Wireless Communication Environments Data communication is not stabilized, causing an error frequently. •  Is the U-WAVE-R separated too far from the U-WAVE-T? •  Is there any obstacle between the U-WAVE-R and the U-WAVE-T? First, bring these instruments close to each other, and then try communication between them. If an obstacle such as a wall or a metallic partition exists between the U-WAVE-R and U-WAVE-T, communication may be affected adversely. Also, the communication condition may be improved by changing the U-WAVE-R location and orientation. •  Is any microwave oven, wireless LAN, or Bluetooth used nearby? A wireless communication device or electric household appliance using a frequency of 2.4 GHz, which is close to the frequency used in the U-WAVE-R, might be affected adversely. Particularly, medical equipment could cause a threat to life due to electromagnetic interference. Carefully use the U-WAVE-R while separating sufficiently from such equipment. Also, check the situation of used bands at the periphery with the U-WAVEPAK and change the current band to that with better communication quality. It may be possible to stabilize communication. Make an attempt on this, referring to “U-WAVEPAK User’s Manual“ in “PDF_Manual” folder of the CD supplied as a standard accessory.
