Troubleshooting

The troubleshooting guide describes symptoms, probable causes, and recommended action for 
problems you may encounter with the H

S transmitter.

NOTE:

This troubleshooting guide describes transmitter problems only. See the controller 
operator’s manual for problems you may encounter with the controller.

Condition

Symptom(s)

Probable Causes

Recommended Action

Fail 
Condition

• Controller indicates 

a fail condition.

• The transmitter 

wiring to the 

controller is 

disconnected or 

misconnected.

• The plug-in sensor 

is not properly 

plugged into the 

sockets in the 

detector housing 

body.

• The wiring from the 

detector to the 

amplifier is 

disconnected or 

misconnected.

• The transmitter’s 

zero reading is low 

enough to cause a 

fail condition.

• The transmitter is 

malfunctioning.

1. Verify that the transmitter wiring to 

the controller is correct and secure.

2. Confirm that the plug-in sensor is 

installed properly.

3. Verify that the wiring from the 

detector to the amplifier is correct 

and secure.

4. Perform a fresh air adjustment. A full 

calibration is recommended.

5. If the fail condition continues, 

replace the plug-in sensor as 

described later in this section.

6. If the fail condition continues, 

contact RKI for further instruction.
