While we expect it to work if put into service within the two year period the customer may have it in storage for an additional time which could result in the AP4 not be- ing able to power the ST95. The customer should leave the Satellite system installed and wait to see if it starts after sufficient time has passed to recharge the Battery. -

Troubleshooting Power Supply 1. Identify the power supply of the 4-20mA loop, which can be either an external supply or the internal supply within the ST90 (+24V). 2. If using an external power supply, use a multi-meter to measure the voltage at its output terminals. Ensure that the required voltage is present. - Page 35 5. Note the measured value of the current flowing in the loop. It should be between 4 and 20 mA. If the value of the current is zero, there may be an open circuit and the wiring should be checked. If the wiring is verified to be correct and the value is outside of the 4–20 mA range, there is likely a problem with the sensor.
