Meter does not 
stop dispensing.
Meter valve is blocked with debris - 
flow bars DO NOT show on the meter 
display when the trigger IS NOT actu-
ated.
Flush the valve with mineral spirits at high pressure and 
flow. Warning: Do not exceed the maximum working 
pressure of the meter (1500 psi - 103 bar).
 If flushing 
does not resolve the problem, the meter should be 
replaced.
Trigger or trigger membrane switch is 
damaged - flow bars DO show on the 
meter display when the trigger IS 
NOT actuated.
Replace the trigger and trigger membrane using the 
Trigger Repair Kit (246439 N. A., 249883 Australia). See 
page 33. Do not use clamps or wire ties to hold trigger 
during dispense, doing so voids the warranty.
Dynamic System Pressure (while dis-
pensing) exceeds the recommended 
600 psi (4.1 MPa, 41.4 bar).
Reduce system pressure. A lower ratio pump may be 
required to reduce pressure and maintain sufficient flow.
A hydraulic quick disconnect was 
used to connect the meter to the dis-
pense hose, allowing debris to block 
meter.
Do not use quick disconnects with Matrix product. Use 
of quick disconnects voids the warranty.
Displayed dis-
pensed amount is 
not accurate.
Meter is not programmed for the cor-

Reposition transceiver or add a transceiver.
Two meters may be programmed as 
the same meter.
Ensure each meter is programmed individually.
PC or transceiver is off.
Turn PC on, open Matrix application, and check power

Meter will not pro-
gram.
Incorrect COM port selected for 
transceiver connection.
Change to correct COM port at the PC in Matrix trans-
