5.0 Troubleshooting

5.1 General

It is highly recommended that a spare sensor be on hand at all times. Sensor failure
tends to be one of the potential causes of downtime. A full complement of other General
Monitors recommended spare parts should also be on hand. (Please refer to Section
7.4.3).
It is recommended that defective controllers be returned to the factory for repair, even if
the warranty has expired.

5.2 Troubleshooting Table

The information presented in the following table is designed to correct the more common
problems, which appear during system startup and operation. Should the various actions
suggested in the table fail to restore normal operation, we recommend that the factory be
consulted and, if necessary, that the system be returned to the factory for repair.
This section is intended to be a guide in correcting problems that may arise in the field.
This section is not all-inclusive, and General Monitors should be contacted for assistance,
if the corrective actions listed do not eliminate the problem. If equipment or qualified
personnel required for various tests is not available, it is recommended that the defective
unit be returned to General Monitors for repair. A complete written description of the
problem should be included.
NOTE: If the equipment is under warranty, any repairs performed by persons other than
General Monitors' authorized personnel, may void the warranty. Please read the
warranty statement carefully.
