START

Verify Power LED is on

Check switch and incoming 

power at 120VAC.

Turn off wire path  

slide switch and cycle power.

Check field LED for 

alternating GREEN/RED colors 

every 0.5 seconds.

Start 50/60Hz test in Decoder 

Diagnostic section of central 

control software.

Verify output voltage on each 

wire path is 33± VAC.

Check incoming 24VAC.

Replace LDI/SDI

Confirm System Status is OK 

in central control software.

Troubleshoot as 

Necessary

Proceed to Field 

Troubleshooting

Replace LDI/SDI

Replace LDI or SDI

Turn on one field 

wire path at a 

time to find wire 

path with short 

condition. LED 

will be solid when 
shorted wire path 

is activated.

Disconnect 

field wires and 

recheck voltage.

Reconnect field wire. Compare 

expected and actual “at rest” current 

draw in Decoder Diagnostic section of 

central control software.

Run ON/OFF Test in Decoder
