Troublshooting Information Page 1
Problem Possible Cause Solution
~ Temperature reads –327.7 ~ Open Circuit ~ Check wiring from sensor to input
~ Temperature reads +372.7 ~ Short Circuit ~ Check wiring from sensor to input
~ Humidity reads full scale (or any other 4-20 mamp input reads full scale.) ~ Loss of DC voltage to transducer ~ Check DC Power supply for proper input power (24 vac for a DCP 1.5W
~ Verify 24 vdc output from power supply
~ Check wiring from DCP to transducer
~ Verify (-) lead is connected to any return of the controller inputs
~ Any 4-20 mamp input reads 0 ~ Resistor is disconnected ~ Verify that the shunt resistor is connected (250 ohm for any TCX or LCX800, 500 ohm for any SCX920 or LCX810)
~ Input reads 999.9 ~ Over voltage on an output ~ Disconnect inputs one at a time until the problem input is found.
~ Digital output not responding to command ~ HOA switch is not in the “Auto” position. ~ Verify HOA switch position on controller and at local disconnect.
~ Control power (24 vac) not connected or fuse blown. ~ Check for control power at output common connection. Replace blown fuse. Check wiring from transformer to controller output and controlled device.
~ AC256 series output jumper not installed on universal output. ~ Verify/replace jumper between I and +20.
~ Belimo actuators (0-10vdc) not responding to command. ~ Improper ground ~ Verify common of the three wire connection (usually #1) is connected to the same ground as the controller.
~ Improper power connection ~ Verify 24 vac between #1 and #2 and that #1 is grounded.
~ Blown 1/8 amp output fuse ~ Disconnect voltage lead to device. Turn output to On. Vary the potentiometer and measure the volts dc between the output and ground. Volts should vary from 0-20 vdc. Replace fuse if necessary.
~ Improper wiring ~ Check wiring from transformer to controller output and controlled device.
~ Output transducer (4-20 mamp) ~ Improper ground ~ End device must be floating or connected to the same ground as the controller.
~ Blown 1/8 amp output fuse ~ Disconnect lead to device. Connect volt-amp meter between current output and ground. Turn output On. Vary the potentioemeter and measure the current. Current should vary from 0-20 mamp. Replace fuse if necessary.
