Operation Manual

Problem: 

Green Preset indicator is flashing, or is not flashing.

Possible cause: 

This is not a problem. This indicator signals the 

number of the current preset, if active, by flashing a series of flashes 
equal to the current preset number. A preset is considered “active” if 
the USP/CN settings match those in the selected preset. If a change is 
made to any setting then the preset is considered “inactive,” and the 
indicator stops flashing.

Problem: 

Both right indicators flash yellow in unison to report a fatal 

error.

Possible cause:

 

An unexpected condition within the CobraNet 

inter face has been detected. 

NOTE: Actual product artwork may vary slightly.

5 Troubleshooting

 (continued)

Problem: 

Data indicator is not flashing, even though a valid 

com mand was sent.

Possible causes: 

• Command was not addressed to the USP/CN.
• Network cable is disconnected or broken.

To assist with troubleshooting, System Architect can set an option for 
force the data indicator on.

Problem: 

Green LINK/ACTIVITY indicator in network connector does 

not illuminate or flash.

Possible cause:

 Ethernet link is broken, or network connection is 10 

Mbps. Check Ethernet connections to the network switch.

Problem:

 

Computer does not communicate with the network 

devices.   

Possible cause:

 Incorrect wiring. See Section 2.10 on network 

wiring.
