Extra Block (Category 17)

The fault category Extra Block applies only to Genius I/O devices. There are no fault types or fault
descriptions associated with this category.
Action: Diagnostic.
The GBC generates this error when it detects a Genius device on the bus at a serial bus address
where the configuration file does not have a block.
Correction
1) Remove or reconfigure the block. (It may be at the wrong serial bus address.)
2) Update and restore the configuration file to include the extra block.

IOC Hardware Failure (Category 18)

The fault category IOC Hardware Failure has no fault types or fault descriptions.
Action: Diagnostic.
The Genius operating software generates this error when it detects a hardware failure in the bus
communication hardware or a baud rate mismatch.
Correction
1) Verify that the baud rate set in the configuration file for the GBC agrees with the baud rate
programmed in every block on the bus.
2) Change the configuration file and restore it, if necessary.
3) Replace the GBC.
4) Selectively remove each block from the bus until the offending block is isolated then replace it.

GBC Stopped Reporting Faults (Category 19)

GBC detected a high error count on the Genius I/O bus and dropped off the bus for at least 1.5
seconds.
Correction
Check for incorrect wiring, interference from other equipment, a loose connection, or a failed device
on the Genius bus.
