Section 9: Engineer 2

Option 61 – Diagnostics
This option allows several diagnostic tests to be run on the system, providing valuable information on the
operational status of the Galaxy and connected modules. The Galaxy polls each module and reports the
successful communications during this period as a percentage. Typical figures are:
• 70% and above - satisfactory communication level
• 50 – 69% - module requires monitoring
• 49% and below - remedial action required
NOTE: The Galaxy gives greater priority to modules that are active, therefore this can affect the
communication percentages on other modules on the system as they are being polled less frequently
due to their zone inactivity.
The Diagnostic options are:
1. MEMORY TEST - This is an option used during development. It serves no purpose in the field.
2. KEYPAD COMMS - the communication level between the Galaxy panel and the keypads.
3. RIO COMMS - the voltage at each RIO as well as the communication level between the Galaxy panel
and the RIO.
4. PSU COMMS - the voltage at each Smart Power Supply Unit and the communication level between the
Galaxy panel and the SPSUs. It is identical to the RIO COMMS diagnostic with the exception that it
also indicates the current output from the SPSU, fuse status and battery status.
A number to the right of the current indicates a blown fuse:
2 = Battery fuse (F2)
3 = +12V Auxilliary fuse (F3)
4 = +12V Auxilliary fuse (F4)
A indication means Low Battery
95% 2 13.6V 1.9A.
Pressing the # key indicates how long the stand-by battery will power the load connected to the SPSU in
the event of an a.c. mains failure as well as the battery recharge time.
5. MAX COMMS - the communication level between the Galaxy panel and the MAX, MicroMAX or
MAX readers.
