* If the bell seems to be fighting itself to get started, change Polarity to - (negative). You can reverse two of the motor wires instead of changing polarity in the program if you want the bell to initially swing the other direction. | * If the bell seems to be fighting itself to get started, change Polarity to - (negative).

* If you get ''ErrBlo'' (blocked bell), double check the sensor hookup and operation. Double check all motor current connections for integrity (the most common point of failure). | * If you get ''ErrBlo'' (blocked bell), double check the sensor hookup and operation.

If you would like the bell to swing higher or lower, try other values for Angle and MaxAmpli. It will recalculate the ideal impulse based on changes you make at this time. | ||

Wait for the bell to come to a full stop. | * When you like the angle and the display again says ''Swing'' you can press '''ON''' to stop the bell swinging.
