Software Troubleshooting and Error Messages

e.   Check the serial port on your computer. Test the serial port by trying to communicate 

with a modem or other serial device. 

 

NOTE: If you used a 2-wire, ungrounded extension cord to power the computer (or 
the switch control during lab testing), you may have damaged the serial port on your 
computer.

“Program in the control: XXXX... not configured for this program”

Reinstall the IntelliLINK software on your computer. Make sure that you are installing 
the correct IntelliLINK software for this switch control. For details, see 

To Install the 

IntelliLINK Software

 in the 

Setup

 Instruction Sheet 1041-530.

“Software in control incompatible with open screenset... cannot be established”

The IntelliLINK software uses a different screenset (.wmn file) for each type of control 
and normally selects the screenset for you. This message appears when you have a 
screenset selected (displayed) and try to connect to a switch control that requires a dif-
ferent screenset.

Use the correct screenset. To close the open screenset, click 

File > Close Screenset

. Then 

click 

File > Open Screenset

 and choose the correct screenset for this switch control. 

Once the screenset opens, click 

Connection > Connect to Device

.

“Software in control is XXXX... not properly configured for this product”

Reinstall the Setup software on your computer. There may be a problem with one of the 
files. For details, see 

To Install the IntelliLINK Software

 in the 

Setup

 Instruction Sheet 

1041-530.

“Times New Roman font is not on your system. The project requires it.”

Click OK to close the dialog box. If the program cannot find the desired font, it warns you 
and then uses a different font.

“Cabinet Door” on OPERATION screen shows wrong door status

Check the door magnet. Make sure the magnet is present on the top inside of the enclosure 
door (S&C 5801) or on the compartment door (S&C 5802/5803). Make sure that the wiring 
to the magnet is connected.

“Battery Low” on TROUBLESHOOTING: Event Status screen

a.   Test the battery. Briefly hold the 

BATTERY TEST/LAMP TEST

 switch in the 

BATTERY TEST

 position to start a battery test. If the 

BATTERY LOW

 LED remains 

ON after it stops blinking (when the battery test has finished), you need to replace the 
battery. When the new battery is installed, run the test again to update battery status.

b.   Restart the switch control. If the 

Battery Low

 message is still 

Active

, or the 

BATTERY LOW

 LED is still on after you replace the battery, remove the 

AC LINE

 

fuse, and then disconnect the battery cable. Also disconnect the external signal cable(s) 
for sensor-powered controls. Then reconnect the battery cable, replace the 

AC LINE

 

fuse and reconnect the signal cable(s).

“Battery Charger Bad” on TROUBLESHOOTING: Event Status screen

The battery is being charged at an abnormally high voltage. The PS/IO module may need 
to be replaced. This message also reports when the load resistors are disconnected from 
the PS/IO board at J11. Contact S&C.
