BFT Thalia “bAr” error. - Joel23M - 16-01-2025

Hi, my BFT Phobos arms, Thalia unit won’t open or close. I have looked on the control board and the LCD screen reads “bAr”.

I’ve checked the wiring by eye of the safety bars and they seem connected as they have been with no breaks. Furthermore, I can’t see any obstructions.

I really can’t afford to get an engineer out at the moment. Are there some things I can try to fix it?

Thank you

Hi,

Are the safety edges wired directly into the board? If so have you checked for resistance on the safety edge. You should be getting roughly 8.2 Ohms.
