System Testing

Testing the LED Flashers

The OBUI has a test function (tESt, see previous 

section) that activates the flashers independently of 

a physical push button test. Activating this function 
through the OBUI, as described in the previous 

section, will operate the flashers for the set period of 

time. If this activates the flashers properly, and the 

flashers will not operate with the pedestrian push 

button, then there may be a fault with the push button 
or the wiring to the button.

Built-in System Test

The OBUI has a built-in system test function (bISt, 
see previous section). Activating this function through 
the OBUI, as described in the previous section, 
performs the system test. After the test completes, 
it will display any errors or 'PASS' if no error is 
detected.

Possible errors include:

Code

Error

0002

Severe temperature detected

0004

Onboard processor has failed

0008

Battery issue detected

0010

There is a problem with the supply voltage

0020

Keypad failure detected

0040

Internal communication failure

0080

There is a problem with the ambient brightness sensor

0100

There is a problem with the charging circuit

0200

There is a problem with the flashing light bars

LED Fault Message

The EMS performs an internal test during start up 

to check for any shorts or open circuits in the LED 

flashers and the associated wiring. This message is 

displayed on the OBUI before any other menu item. 
Use the tESt function or press the pedestrian push 
button to clear the alert once the problem has been 
resolved.

Setting the Radio Channel

In order for the entire crosswalk set to operate when 

a pedestrian push button is activated, the SC315 
utilizes an on board radio to communicate to the 

other units that make up the crosswalk set. The radio 

channel for all of the units must be set to the same 
radio channel. Adverse behavior will result if the 
same radio channel is not set on all of the units in a 

crosswalk set.

WARNING

If there are two crosswalks set 

in close proximity to each other, 
but are intended to operate 
independently, then a different 
radio channel for each set will be 
required. The factory default for the 
radio channel is 5.

Radio Network Settings

Some of the EMS settings are synchronized across 

the units in a crosswalk set on the same channel.

Once the networked setting is changed on one 

system, the networked settings will be transmitted 

and synchronized with the system that was just 
updated.

WARNING

If there are two crosswalks sets 

in close proximity to each other 
and on the same radio channel, 

the networked settings may be 

transmitted and synchronized with 
the system that was just updated.

These settings are synchronized across the 

crosswalk set: dUrA, nItE, AAA. See the Functions 

and Settings section for an explanation on these 
settings.

NOTE

Changes to the networked settings 

can be made from any one of the 

units in a crosswalk set.
