Faults and Troubleshooting

General
The CAPTAIN-i possesses many operating parameters and options. Some of the system
operations depend on the manner of programming, and if one of the parameters is not
programmed correctly, the operation depending on it will not be executed. This chapter
describes the faults displayed on the keypad and their meanings, as well as various
problems that may be encountered due to improper programming, and options for
troubleshooting the faults that can occur due to incorrect installation and/or
programming.
