Common Alarms and Warnings

IO Communication Error

This alarm will appear if a controller or one of its IO is not communicating. The alarm will only specify which

controller has an issue. It will not show which module.

Solution:

Determine if the controller or if an IO module is not communicating by following through the communication

problems section.

Appliance Communication Error

An appliance communication error can occur if there is a loss of communication to a controller in the appliance

or if there is an incorrect network map across controllers.

Solution:

If it appears that all controllers are communicating but this alarm still appears it could be that one or more

controllers has the incorrect network map. This can happen if a controller has been swapped and not fully

commissioned. Re-run the Appliance manager to push out an identical map to all controllers.

Pilot or main flame detected while off

The ignition module is detecting flame when it shouldn't be. This can occur if flame is detected before the

system tries to start.

Solution:

This may be that there is flame in the chamber before the system tries to start.

Proof of closure contact open

The BMS has a proof of closure contact enabled in the settings and it is open when it should be closed.

Solution:

Check that the POC valves used are wired correctly. The valve contacts should be in series with the POC

terminal.
