Troubleshooting Tips 

Symptom 

Check/Action 

No display at all 

Check power at power connector 

Not able to change setup or 

programming, 

Locd

 is displayed 

Controller is password-protected, enter correct six-digit password 

to unlock 

Controller displays error 

message during calibration 

(

Error

Check: 

1.  Signal connections 

2.  Input selected in 

Setup

 menu 

3.  Minimum input span requirements 

Controller displays 

999999

 

-99999

 

Check: 

1.  Input selected in 

Setup

 menu 

2.  Corresponding signal at Signal connector 

Display is unstable 

Check: 

1.  Input signal stability and value 

2.  Display scaling vs. input signal 

3.  Filter and bypass values (increase) 

Display response is too slow 

Check filter and bypass values 

Display reading is not accurate 

1.  Signal input conditioning selected: Linear, square root, etc. 

2.  Scaling or calibration 

Display does not respond to 

input changes, reading a fixed 

number 

Check: 

Display assignment, it might be displaying max, min, or set 

point. 

Display alternates between 

1. 

Hi

 and a number  

2. 

Lo

 and a number 

Press Menu to exit max/min display readings.  

Relay operation is reversed 

Check: 

1.  Fail-safe in Setup menu 

2.  Wiring of relay contacts 

Relay and status LED do not  

respond to signal 

Check: 

1.  Relay action in 

Setup

 menu 

2.  Set and reset points 

Flashing relay status LEDs 

Relays in manual control mode or relay interlock switches opened.  

Controller not communicating 

with application programs 

Check: 

1.  Serial adapter and cable 

2.  Serial settings 

3.  Controller address and baud rate 

If the display locks up or the 

controller does not respond at all  

Cycle the power to reboot the  

microprocessor. 

Other symptoms not described 

above 

Call Technical Support for  

assistance. 

Note: Certain sequences of events can cause unexpected results. To solve these issues, it is best to start 

fresh from factory defaults and map changes ahead of time, rather than at random.
