Has the machine worked for you previously or did you just get the machine and are trying to make it work? I am just speculating, but since the display is reporting multiple sensor issues, I'd guess there is a failure of a power supply to them or the analog input board they report to. Whatever it is, it is something common to all the sensors. I would try to contact the manufacturer as suggested.

My first truing stand. I think I paid $17.50 for it in 1973. I wasn't too sure about it at first, so I used it to check a pair of wheels the shop owner had just built--Fiamme Red labels on Record hubs. Yes, this was something I could use to build better wheels than he did, and I used it for 45 years.

At first this device worked very well, for about 4-5 months it worked well, then it started to have problems, sometimes it could see the sensors, sometimes it couldn't. a few days ago when I turned it on again, it could see the axial and radial sensors, but not the hub sensor, and if it doesn't see the hub sensor, it's as if it doesn't see the wheel as if it were on the device. If anyone is interested, this device is for sale, because I haven't been able to use it for a long time, and I'm tired of looking for solutions to repair it. the price is 2300 euros. thanks

What specifically was the manufacturer’s reply? They do still sell these, or at least claim to, so manuals should be available.
50% off sounds like a high asking price for a machine that doesn’t work.

At the time, a $35 wheel for a flip bike made much more sense then building a new wheel.
