ST-Z - Soft Touch™ version Z

Software Update for HALO B

Features

Z Code has a new jam detection circuit that allows the HALO to determine when an internal jam occurs (out-of-round paint for example). It then initiates a jam clearing sequence which attempts to clear the jam (three times) before changing to a fail safe mode which protects the motor and circuitry for being damaged.

This new technology has allowed us to increase the rotational force/speed of the HALO without risk of damage. Z Code still includes all of the features of past software updates.

When in fail-safe mode, the HALO will rapidly flash the LED red and green to let the user know of the jam. The user can then clear the jam and turn the HALO off and back on normally. When battery levels are too low, the same flashing will occur to alert the user.

Mfg. Release Date: August 15, 2003. If your HALO was manufactured before August 15, 2003 it does NOT have the newest Z code.

How to check if your HALO has Z code: While your HALO is running without paint in it, reach down with your fingers and stop the drive cone from spinning. If you hold it down and the motor pulses you have Z code. If the HALO just keeps "humming" and presses without pulsing you do not have Z code.

To have your HALO B UPDATED:

  1. You do not need an RMA number or return authorization
  2. Package your HALO so that it will not be damaged in shipping (the original box works well without extra packaging). Please note that cardboard is very abrasive; we recommend that you put your loader in a plastic bag so that it does not get scratched.
