Mistake
Remedy
A terminator is not connected.
Connect a terminator (connector or terminal-block) at the
end of the cable farthest from the Master.
The terminator is not connected at the end of the cable far-
thest from the Master.
Connect the terminator at the end of the cable farthest from
the Master.
The master is not connected at one end of the main line in a
system in which the main line must be distinguished from
the branch lines.
Connect the Master at one end of the main line.
The length of the main line, a branch line, or the total length
of the branch lines of the system in which the main line must
be distinguished from the branch lines is not within specifi-
cations.
Make sure that the lengths of the cables in the system are
within the specifications listed in
, or change the communications mode to Long-dis-
tance Communications Mode so that the length of the
cables in the system will be within specifications.
The total communications cable in the system in which the
main line does not need to be distinguished from the branch
lines is not within specifications.
figuration so that the length of the total communications
cable length will be within specifications.
2-conductor VCTF cable, 4-conductor VCTF cable, and
Special Flat Cable are used together in the same system.
Use just one kind of cable in the system.
There is a break in the communications cable.
Reconnect or replace the communications cable.
When 4-conductor VCTF cable or Special Flat Cable is
being used, a connector is not attached securely to the
cable.
Make sure that the connectors are crimped correctly on the
cable.
A connector is faulty.
Replace the faulty connector.
