OWNER’S MANUAL
Troubleshooting Guide
Issue: Wiring Fault LED is illuminated.
Possible Cause
: AC Mains outlet is wired incorrectly.
Action Needed
: Contact a certified electrician to inspect the building's wiring.
Issue
: No power to the AC outlets.
Possible Cause
: Circuit breaker has tripped due to excessive load.
Action Needed: Remove one piece of equipment from the ECS-3, and push the breaker re-set tab
located on the front panel.
Note: We suggest first locating the highest power-consumer such as a
power amplifier and disconnecting or turning down that unit.
IF the ECS-3 breaker continues to trip, relocating some of the gear may be required.
Issue: No power to the AC outlets, “Abnormal Voltage” indicator is illuminated, the Volt Meter is
Flashing and you hear a buzzer from the unit.
Possible Cause
: The AC Mains Voltage exceeded 132VAC or the voltage dropped below 101VAC
Action Needed: Measure the AC mains before the ECS-3. If the voltage is between 117VAC
and 123VAC you may proceed to reset the ECS-3 by restarting the start up sequence.
Note: It is
important to have all equipment that was connected to that AC Mains Line to be inspected for proper
operation. If the problem persists, contact your local power company for the cause of unstable AC
line conditions.
Issue: Abnormal LED Flashing and you have power to all outlets.
Possible Cause
: The AC Mains Voltage exceeded 128VAC or the voltage dropped below 107VAC
Action Needed: The ECS-3 must be re-sequenced to turn off the LED. Measure the AC mains before
the ECS-3. If the voltage is between 117VAC and 123VAC you may proceed to reset the ECS-3 by
restarting the start up sequence.
Note: It is important to have all equipment that was connected to
that AC Mains Line inspected for proper operation. If the problem persists, contact your local power
company for the cause of unstable AC line conditions.
Issue: AC Fault LED is Flashing, a buzzer is sounding and you have no power at any outlets.
Possible Cause
: Although the Dual Clamping Suppression (DCS) circuit virtually assures protection
from most transient voltage spikes and surges, nature has a way of occasionally creating electrical
forces that are beyond the capabilities of any device to absorb without some degree of damage. In
the rare instance that this occurs, the DCS circuit has been damaged during the suppression.
Action Needed: If this happens, the ECS-3 will shut off and the unit will need to be repaired or
replaced. It is important to have all equipment that was connected to that AC Mains Line inspected for
proper operation.
