communication Failure:
Possible Causes /Solutions
1. The built-in programming
interface’s battery is low or out of
power or the rechargeable battery
in the Handheld Programmer
is low or out of power; replace
battery in interface and keep
rechargeable battery fully
charged.
2. There might be a problem with a
connection or solenoid. Perform
an electrical system check of
wiring and solenoid.
NOTE: The built-in interface’s
internal memory lasts only 3
minutes. Any time the battery
within the Programming interface
fully discharges, it is necessary
to plug the Handheld Programmer
directly into the interface and
reprogram the Unit. While
repeating the programming steps
is only a minor inconvenience, a
proactive approach to battery
maintenance will serve to alleviate
the frequency with which these
steps must be completed.
