Introduction—ASC and N2 Bus Networking and Troubleshooting Guide 23
Troubleshooting N2 Bus
Installation
You need to troubleshoot the N2 Bus if the Companion system is not
properly communicating with the ASCs. This section first presents a
troubleshooting table. The table covers many ASC or N2 communication
problems and suggests which actions to take.
Second, specific troubleshooting tests are given. Before trying one of
these tests, you may be able to determine the cause of the problem by
asking yourself the following questions:
●
Are the N2 Bus wires securely terminated to each ASC?
●
Is the N2 polarity correct?
●
Is the ASC powered and ready to respond?
●
Are the end-of-line device settings correct?
●
Have you cycled power on an ASC after changing its address?
●
Is the W3 loopback jumper on the Companion Panel/LTD fully
pushed down on pins 1 and 2?
●
Are the ASCs configured properly with the correct number of points?
The tests are designed to find opens, shorts, ground loops, or crossed wires
on the N2. Third, this section describes the diagnostic LEDs on the AHU.
!
CAUTION: To avoid electrical shocks when troubleshooting,
always measure the REF to earth ground voltage with
a 100K ohm resistor installed at the DMM. If line-
voltage is measured, have a qualified electrician
locate the fault.
The tests covered in this section require the use of these components:
●
Digital Multimeter (DMM)
●
100K ohm resistor
●
9-volt battery
●
red LED test light
●
470 ohm resistor
●
oscilloscope
