Does the " " flash (Totalflow Remote Protocol only) in the A8
annunciator position on the display (default position)? If no,
1) The Protocol needs to be selected in the Entry Mode using
PCCU32.
2) The communication's module in Comm 1 or Comm 2 is missing or
bad or the module is the wrong type (RS232 or RS485).
Note: Comm 1 and Comm 2 are in opposite locations when compared
to older electronics boards (2015333) generation 2 and older.
3) Inadequate 12 VDC battery voltage.
•
Insure base radio is working for other locations.
•
Verify Station ID and Device ID matches with WinCCU and is the
only Totalflow device with that ID.
•
Verify Baud rate, Stop Bits, Security Code, and Link Establishment
time are same as CCU.
•
Verify WinCCU is using Packet Protocol. XSeries
only DB2 Packet Protocol.
•
Verify wiring to antenna, to UCI, UCI to Radio for RS485 installation
or to Radio/Modem for RS232 installation.
TIP: To check for wiring shorts or opens with two or more wire
connections, use a multimeter set on continuity (resistance). Check
two wires at a time from one unit to another. If black and white
wires are to be tested, disconnect both wires at both ends, set one
probe on black, the other on white. The meter should read OL or
OFL (over range) if no shorts. Jumper the two wires at the other
end. The meter should read a low resistance if no opens. This
method requires only one end of wiring to be tested, no matter how
far the units are apart.
•
If a radio is used, verify directional antenna with correct
frequency range is pointed toward base (± 6°). The antenna
should be mounted vertically, with the vanes perpendicular to
the ground. Verify radio is good, with the same frequencies
used.
•
If a modem is used, verify dial tone on line at the telephone
company's termination box by checking Tip and Ring. Check
wiring from phone company's box to dial-up modem. If cellular,
also check for proper Tip & Ring voltage. Insure that the phone
number is correct in the unit and WinCCU.
NOTE: Telephone companies in the United States typically use a 48 volt
power supply so the on-hook voltage between the Tip and Ring
wires should be something less than 48 volts. Measuring another
way, Tip to ground is approx. zero volts and Ring to ground is
approx. –48 volts.
