If fault is on zone remove and reseat the card
or replace the card.
If fault is on many zones check the supply to
the controller to ensure there is not a missing
phase.
If the fault is on all zones check the power and
communication cable to the operator
interface to ensure they are connected
properly or change the operator interface
computer.
Consult the mold electrical prints and use an
ohmmeter or insulation resistance meter to
inspect the cables and mold.
This is unlikely to be a controller issue but the
connectors on the back of the controller
should be inspected as well.
Confirm that the Alarm window is set to an
appropriate range and not too small.
Recommended: +/-10°F (6°C).
Re-ART (Tune) the zone under typical molding
