E. Function button: Press to choose the function you are setting: speed or tilt.
F. Speed indicator light: Illuminates when the speed is displayed.
G. Tilt indicator light: Illuminates when the tilt angel is displayed.
H. Time display: Displays accumulated time (continuous mode) or how much time is remaining (timed mode). The display range is from 0 to 9,999 minutes in one (1) second increments. The display will indicate minutes and seconds until the timer reaches 99 minutes and 59 seconds (99:59), then the display will automatically display minutes up to 9,999.
I. Up/down arrows for set-point control. On/off button starts/stops the time function
The Rocking/Waving Shakers have been designed for the speed/tilt angle and time functions to work independently of one another. The speed/tilt angle can be reset without resetting the timer and the timer can be stopped and started without interrupting the rocking/waving function.

1. Getting ready:
   a. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded outlet. The standby indicator light will illuminate, verifying power to the unit. Manually move the tray to a near horizontal “home” position before powering unit.
   b. Press the standby button to move the unit from standby mode. The standby indicator light will turn off and the speed/tilt angle and time displays will illuminate, displaying the previously used settings.

2. Setting tilt angle: Electronic tilt enables the user to adjust the angle of tray movement while the unit is rocking/waving or while the unit is stopped.
   a. Press the function button below the speed/tilt angle display until the tilt indicator light illuminates. You are now ready to set the tilt angle.
   b. Press the up/down arrows below the speed/tilt angle display until you reach the desired angle. When you release the button, the display will blink off and then on indicating the new set angle has been accepted. The unit will complete one rotation at the previously set angle, then smoothly change to the newly programmed angle. The tilt indicator light will flash until the transition to the new tilt angle is complete.

3. Setting speed:
   a. Press the function button below the speed/tilt angle display until the speed indicator light illuminates. You are now ready to set the speed.
   b. Press the up/down arrows below the speed/tilt angle display until you reach the desired speed. When you release the button, the display will blink off and then on indicating the new set speed has been accepted.
   c. Press the on/off button to start the rocking/waving function. The indicator light below the speed/tilt angle display will illuminate and blink until the set-point is reached. Once the set-point is reached the light will stop blinking and remain lit until rocking/waving has ceased.
   d. To stop the rocking/waving function, press the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display. The unit will complete one full rotation then stop in the horizontal “home” position. The speed indicator light will flash until the rotation is complete.
   When the cycle is complete, the unit will automatically move to standby mode and the standby indicator light will illuminate.

OPERATING TIPS
When the unit is running at slow speeds or high angles, making large changes to the tilt angle or speed may take several minutes to complete. The quickest way to make large changes is to stop the unit, change the speed or tilt angle, then restart by pressing the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display.

1. Setting time to zero (0: 00) and continuous mode: Accumulated time.
   a. Press and hold the on/off button below the time display. After three (3) seconds the display will indicate the previous set time.
   b. Simultaneously press both the up and down arrows, the display will indicate zero (0:00). The unit time is now set to zero (0:00) minutes. Alternately, you can use the up/down arrows to get to zero (0:00).
   c. Press the on/off button below the time display. The display will indicate accumulated time. The up/down arrows will become inactive. To stop timer, press the on/off button again. IMPORTANT: This will NOT interrupt the rocking/ waving function. Press the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display to interrupt the rocking/waving function.
   d. To reset, press and hold the on/off button below the time display. After three (3) seconds the display will indicate the previous set time, which was zero (0:00).

2. Setting timed mode: Programmed time.
   a. Press the up/down arrows below the time display until you reach the desired time.
   b. Start this function by pressing the on/off button below the time display. The unit will run for the selected time, the up/down arrows will become inactive while the timer is running. The unit will stop rocking/waving when the time display reaches zero (0:00). Four (4) audible beeps will indicate the count down function is complete. The time display will default back to the set time. To repeat for the same time, simply press the on/off button again.
   c. To interrupt an automatic timing cycle before it is completed, press the on/off button below the time display. The time display will flash off and on to indicate the time function is on “hold”. IMPORTANT: This will NOT interrupt the rocking/ waving function. Press the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display to interrupt the rocking/waving function. Restart the timer by pressing the on/off button below the time display. Unit will continue counting down to zero (0:00).
   When the display reaches zero (0:00), you will hear the four (4) audible beeps that indicate the count down function is complete and the rocking/waving function will cease.

3. Turning unit off:
   a. To turn the unit off, press the standby button. The speed/tilt angle and time displays will be blank, the standby indicator light will illuminate. The Rocking/ Waving Shaker should be kept in standby mode when not in use. To completely cut off power to the unit, disconnect the power cord from the unit or unplug from the wall outlet.

Troubleshooting Analog ROCKER/WAVER

If the tray motion is obstructed or the unit is mechanically overloaded, the unit will beep and attempt to restore controlled rocking motion. If unit can not recover on its own, disconnect power cord, reduce load, speed or tilt setting and repeat run.

Troubleshooting DIGITAL ROCKER/WAVER

addressed by the user. Press the standby button to clear this error. If the E03 error persists, along with grinding, knocking or rubbing noises,un-plug the unit and contact your Oahu’s representative for repairs. IN the event of an errant E03 error, such as someone inadvertently touching the platform tray while the unit is running, the unit will automatically go to the horizontal “home” position and restart. In the event of an obstruction left under the tray, which would cause the unit to continually restart, the unit will attempt to autosome and restart four (4) times and then stop running, displaying an E03 error. This error can be cleared by the user by pressing the standby button.
E04| Maximum load exceeded| The E04 error can be addressed by the user. Press the standby button to clear this error. Be sure the load is within the maximum load specification before restarting the unit. If the E04 code persists, un- plug the unit and contact your Oahu’s representative for repairs.
