Super Major It is a catastrophic error. The unit is either unable to come online or process a
transaction. Component cause must be remedied before the unit can be restored to
functionality. All grades on both sides are disabled.
Major It is a catastrophic error. The unit senses that the required equipment is not present or
startup programming has not been completed. The error is not cleared until the issue is
resolved or the programming is completed. All grades on one side are disabled.
Medium It is a non-catastrophic error. It ends the transaction in progress. The error is typically
cleared on a warmstart or the unit attempts to recover at the start of the next transaction.
Minor It is a non-catastrophic error. It is a component-level error. It is cleared on a warmstart or
the unit attempts to recover at the start of the next transaction.
Informational/Undefined It is a non-catastrophic error. It is shown in the event logs for notification. It is not usually
indicative of an actual problem.

before this error will clear. To check blend ratios, press ENTER on the manager keypad when
the unit is in an idle state or through viewing the CC 72 (blend ratios).
If an improper calibration factor has been set (usually when calibrating with an incorrect
CC 82 value) the calibration can be cleared by changing the volume unit type in CC 71.
Warmstart the unit, and then set CC 71 back to the proper value.
If you are unable to enter the calibration mode, check the following:
• CC 90 – Verify that the unit is configured for the proper grades/products.
• CC 72 – Verify that all straight grades are calibrated. If you have a non-standard blend, for
example, 100/50/5, the last grade will have to be changed to a 0 in order to
perform the calibration procedure.
• CC 75 – Verify that the fuel density is configured.
• CC 92 – Verify that the unit is configured for the appropriate number of sides.
• Event logs through the NGD Laptop Tool.
Troubleshooting
To rectify this medium error, proceed as follows:

Encore 300/500/500 S/700 S and Eclipse Units. The instructions will vary depending upon the
version of software that has been installed on the PCN.
Note: In calibration mode, only products that show 8888 in the PPU display can be
calibrated. Calibrated grades will show the number of days since the last calibration
was performed.
2 Validate blend ratio programming.
3 Pull meter information using the Encore Laptop Tool. If the pulses per unit of measure are less
than 150, then clear the calibration through the procedure mentioned above and recalibrate the
unit properly using the correct test measure size.
Error Code 29 – Valve Stuck or Initial/Dispenser Timeout
Error Code 29 – Valve Stuck or Initial/Dispenser Timeout

This medium error code is generated when the PCN detects that a transaction is authorized but
no flow is detected.
Non-blending units display this error on the PPU display for the pulser on which no flow is
detected. Blending units displays this error on the PPU display for any product using the pulser
on which no flow is detected.
This error code is displayed when no flow is detected inside of the values programmed into
CC 53 Functions 3 (Dispenser Timeout) or CC 53 Function 4 (Initial Timeout). The default
mode for these values is 0 (No Timeout). If these values have been changed, it might be
necessary to increase the timeout value to avoid erroneous errors. These values can be
programmed from 0-999 seconds. If these values are left at default, then the cause of error is
likely to be related to the hardware.

• Timeout value programmed through CC 53 was exceeded.

• Stuck valve
• Damaged/improper valve connection
Note: This may be a result of transactions not starting within the time allotted in unit
programming or a hardware issue. Verify programming prior to troubleshooting
hardware.

Error Code 5047 – Reverse Flow Detected

This medium error code is generated when the PCN detects reverse pulses from a connected
pulser.
Note: This error is applicable primarily to multi-product, single-hose units, though it can
occur on single product units such as the Ultra-Hi.
Non-blending units display this error on the PPU display for the pulser on which the reverse
flow was detected. Blending units display this error on the PPU display for any product using
the pulser on which the reverse flow is detected.
The quadrature and higher pulsers detect the correct rotational direction by monitoring the first
20 pulses every time the dispenser is power cycled. In case the pulser replaces an existing
pulser and it turns (or is turned) in the wrong direction for the first 20 pulses or more after
power cycling the unit, it will establish the rotational direction as being correct. The
subsequent delivery will result in an EC 5047. To avoid this, do not assemble or rotate a “live”
pulser in the wrong direction just after replacement or power cycle. If the pulser is
inadvertently rotated incorrectly, you can correct the condition by powering the unit down and
taking a backup, and ensuring that the pulser turns in the proper direction for the first 20
pulses.
Possible Causes – All Encore Pulser Types except Ultra-Hi and Coriolis
(DEF) Meter
• The dispenser is not programmed for encrypted pulsers (if equipped or installed).
• Leaking meter check valve
• Air in the product line or line hydraulics is causing pulser jitter
• Damaged PCN

• Incorrect initial pulser rotation

• Damaged PCN
Note: Ultra-Hi units with the liquid controls meter do not have a meter check valve. Any
reverse pulses detected are likely to be caused due to fluctuations in line pressure.
Possible Causes – Coriolis (DEF) meter

• Air in the unit or line hydraulics causing pulser jitter

Note:To move the pulser on a Coriolis meter, the Coriolis electronics must be moved. The
purple meter programming chip must match with the meter hydraulics.

• Damaged PCN
Troubleshooting
1 Using the laptop tool, identify the affected meter in the event log.
2 Check whether the unit hydraulics have been recently serviced. If yes, ensure that it has been
properly purged after the servicing.
3 Warmstart the unit and test the affected product.
4 Authorize another product on the affected side. If the pulser/meter is a type where the linkage
is visible, look for the pulser/meter turning backwards.
5 Replace the meter check valve for the affected meter.
Error Code 5049 – Unauthorized Flow Detected
Error Code 5049 – Unauthorized Flow Detected

PCN V2.8.60 and Earlier:
This medium error is logged when the PCN detects forward pulses and the unit is not
authorized to dispense.
PCN V2.9.42 and Later:

This minor error is logged only when the PCN detects forward pulses with a flow rate of 
5 gpm or higher and the unit is not authorized to dispense.
Notes: 1) This error is applicable to all unit types with Sandpiper electronics of any
generation.
2) This error may display on the PPU displays or be logged only, depending upon the
configuration of CC 91 FC 31.

• Air in the unit or line hydraulics

• Fluctuations in the line pressure causing pulser rocking (Ultra-Hi only)
• Damaged/malfunctioning valve allowing flow when the unit is not authorized
• Debris in the valve
• Damaged/malfunctioning Valve Interface PCA (varies dependent upon valve type)
Further Information
When troubleshooting this issue, ensure that the Submersible Turbine Pump (STP) for the
product being investigated is running during the process. While starting up a unit or site,
ensure that the product line has been properly purged. To test this issue without the unit being
authorized, it may be necessary to authorize the opposite side or another unit. The STP should
remain ON during the troubleshooting process. Verify first if the product being investigated
will flow without authorization.
Troubleshooting
If the flow continues with the unit powered down, repair/replace the affected valve.
If the flow stops when the unit is powered down, proceed as follows:
1 Unplug the cable connection from P1102 (valve control) from the valve interface PCA.
3 If the flow stops, inspect the valve control cable for damage. If no damage is present, proceed
to step 4.
4 Cold start the PCN.
5 Swap the PCN.
6 Swap the valve control board.

Error Code 5050 – Invalid Pulser Pattern

This medium error is generated when the PCN detects an erratic pulse pattern from a
connected pulser.
Note: This error applies to all unit and pulser types, though the causes may vary.
Non-blending units display this error on the PPU display for the pulser on which the erratic
pulse pattern was detected. Blending units display this error on the PPU display for any
product using the pulser on which the erratic pulse pattern was detected.
Possible Causes – Standard (Non Ultra-Hi) Pulser and Ecometer

Note: Ecometer pulsers are not independently serviceable. Moving the pulser requires
moving the entire Ecometer assembly.
• Air in the unit or line hydraulics causing pulser jitter.
• Incorrect calibration factor. For example, CC 82 (calibration measure capacity)
programmed to 50 gallons and the unit was calibrated with a 5-gallon test measure. To
clear the calibration factor, change the volume unit type in CC 71 to 0 for unprogrammed,
and then exit programming. After the unit reboots, reenter programming and change
CC 71 back to the proper value; verify CC 81 and recalibrate.
• Flow control error. For example, CC 80 (maximum flow rate) programmed to a value of
10, but the unit can not properly throttle the flow due to a hydraulic or electronic failure.

• Damaged or defective Intrinsically Safe Barrier PCA
• Unstable pulser voltage through the Intrinsically Safe Barrier PCA F1 fuse
• Incorrect calibration factor. For example, CC 82 (Calibration measure capacity)
programmed to 50 gallons and the unit was calibrated with a 5-gallon test measure.
Possible Causes – Coriolis (DEF) Meter


Note: To move the pulser on a Coriolis meter, the Coriolis electronics must be moved. 
The purple meter programming chip must remain matched with the meter hydraulics.
• Incorrect calibration factor. For example, CC 82 (Calibration measure capacity)
programmed to 50 gallons and the unit calibrated with a 5-gallon test measure.
Special Consideration Regarding Coriolis (DEF) Meters

Error Code 5050 may be displayed while purging the unit on a startup, or due to hydraulic
service, or air introduced into the system in another area. It is necessary to plug a standard
pulser into the PCN and spin the pulser manually to purge the system. Once the system is
properly purged, reconnect the Coriolis meter and proceed.
Troubleshooting
1 Using the NGD Laptop Tool, identify the affected pulser in the event log.
2 Verify for proper unit programming.
3 Verify whether the unit hydraulics have been recently serviced. If yes, ensure that it has been
properly purged and calibrated after the servicing.
4 Check the pulser wiring and connections for proper termination. Reseat, if necessary.
5 Verify that no corrosion exists on the pulser wiring connections. Clean, if necessary.
6 Warmstart the unit, and verify that the error condition is rectified.
7 Test the pulser to check if the issue persists. If yes, swap the pulser from one position to
another.
8 If the issue still persists, replace the pulser.
9 If the issue does not persist, troubleshoot the associated PCAs (PCN, Coriolis Interface, 
and so on).
Additional Information Regarding the Combined Pulser
Troubleshooting Steps
To troubleshoot the combined pulser, proceed as follows:
1 Visually observe the pulser and the connection to the PCN. Check for any wire that may be
pinched, cut, or otherwise not seated correctly in the electronics cabinet, and verify that no
corrosion exists on the pulser wiring connections.
Figure 4: Pulser Wiring
2 Using the laptop tool, verify the affected pulser. Pull the pump logs from the PCN and verify
the error code (EC 5050) in the events logs. If the logs do not show errors for multiple days
straight, install the Pulser Plate Kit (M14794K001) only. If the log shows four or more EC
5050 errors in a row for multiple days straight, replace the pulser and install the Pulser Plate
Kit for the pulser pair for the pulser that is showing this error.
Figure 5: Pump Log
Note: The example in Figure 5 does not show multiple days of errors as explained in 
step 2.
3 When installing the Pulser Plate Kit, ensure that the alignment of the pulser is correct. For
proper alignment, use the Pulser Gauge (M14437B001) (see Figure 6).
The example in Figure 6 shows the difference between proper and improper meter shaft
alignment.
Figure 6: Proper and Improper Alignment
(i) (ii)
Pulser Gauge indicating an acceptable Pulser Gauge indicating an
meter shaft alignment. acceptable meter shaft alignment.
Meter and/or meter manifold must
be repositioned.
Note: Do not discard the pulser gauge. This is a service tool that can be used for
future maintenance repairs of pulsers or meters.
Do not confuse EC 5050 at power cycle with an EC 5050 on units that have been
running for some time, as air in the line or incorrectly calibrating a unit can cause this
error, especially at power cycle.
Identifying the Correct Pulser

It is crucial that the correct pulser be identified during troubleshooting. Figure 7 explains
where and how the pulsers are assigned and mounted within the electronics cabinet. For
example, if ePulser_ 7 is referenced in an error in the event log, the referenced pulsers is the
Product 3 side B pulser (see Figure 7).
