Solution
• Cycle power manually to the panel and check the Battery Base page
after startup.
• Verify that you are using the most current v2.XX Modero firmware.
• If downloading the firmware to the panel via a COM port, try using an
IP Address and retry the download of the firmware to the panel.
• Verify that the System number is the same on both the NetLinx
Workspace window and the System Settings page on the Modero
panel.
• Verify you have entered the proper NetLinx Master IP and connection
methods into the Master Connection section of the System Settings
page.
In requesting a DHCP Address, the DHCP Server can take up to a few
minutes to provide the address.
• Verify there is an active Ethernet connection attached to the rear of
the Modero before beginning these procedures.
• Select Diagnostics > Network Address, from the Main menu and
verify the System number.
• If the IP Address field is still empty, give the Modero a few minutes to
negotiate a DHCP Address and try again.
• A blinking battery life LED indicates that there is less than 10% power
charge remaining on the battery.
• It is recommended that you fully charge the battery either in the
NXA-BASE/1 battery base or in the NXT-CHG battery charger.
• Refer to the NXA-BASE/1 Battery Base Kit (FG2255-05K) section on
page 24 and NXT-CHG Battery Charger Kit (FG2255-50K) section
on page 28 for more information.
If you a Virtual Master has already connected to the target panel, the
G4 device retains the information of the previous Virtual Master System
number.
• Reboot the panel without the USB cable plugged into the panel.
• Configure NetLinx Studio for a Virtual Master connection. Note the
System Number used in the Edit Settings window.
• Stop communication on the Virtual Master by going to Settings >
Stop Communications.
• Click Yes to stop communication.
• Select the System Number (from the Online Tree tab) and use a right
mouse click to select Refresh System. This re-establishes
communication with the Virtual Master.
• Plug-in the mini-USB cable into the corresponding port on the panel.
• Wait a few seconds and refresh the system. This re-establishes
communication with the Virtual Master. The panel should now appear
in the list of available devices.
