Display Area
The Display Area lists controllers that respond to the ICU broadcast. The ICU
displays the following information for each controller.
Comm Fail
The controller is in a Communication Failure state, and
the ICU is unable to communicate with the controller.
This can be a transient state when you refresh the ICU
display, and is replaced by one of the other states when
the ICU receives a response from the
controller.
