How to Diagnose Assembly Faults
When the assembly is in an ADVANCE system that includes a vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), faults
may be automatically detected, transmitted to the MCU in data messages, and displayed or printed. Fault
messages and possible solutions for their causes are described in the table below.
Fault Message Cause and Effect Possible Solution
Watch-Dog timer
Processor has Reset
xd times
(Where x is the
decimal number of
times the watchdog
timer has reset the
processor.)
Cause—The watchdog timer has forced the
processor to reset. This occurs when the reset
pins (J2) on the Handset/FSK/
P PCBA are
temporarily shorted or when the watchdog
timer does not receive regular status pulses
from U4 on the Handset/FSK/
P PCBA.
Effect—The processor maintains a count of
the number of resets. If the station is powered
down, the count restarts at zero. The station
still amplifies incoming pages. For the fourth
and subsequent resets, the count is zero.
 Verify that the reset pins
2 and 3 (J2) on the
Handset/FSK/
P PCBA
are not shorted.
 Replace the
Handset/FSK/ P PCBA.
Stuck Contact on
Polled Device
Paging Pressbar
Depressed
Cause—The station has been in page mode
longer than the configured page limit.
Effect—Station page is cut off. When the
pressbar is released, a restore message is sent
to the MCU. The station then resumes normal
operation.
 Verify that neither the
handset pressbar nor the
headset page switch is
stuck.
 Replace the
Handset/FSK/ P PCBA.
 Replace the Speaker
Amp/Power Supply
PCBA.
Stuck Contact on
Polled Device
Handset Off-hook
Cause—The station has been in the off-hook
state longer than the configured time limit.
Effect—Station handset/headset operation is
cut off. When the station is returned to the
on-hook state, a restore message is sent to the
MCU. The station then resumes normal
operation.
 Verify that neither the
handset is off-hook nor
the headset is connected.
 Replace the
Handset/FSK/ P PCBA,
or cradle.
 Replace the Speaker
Amp/Power Supply
PCBA.
Supervised Audio
Path
Handset
Cause—The station failed its internal health
check of the Handset/FSK/
P PCBA.
Effect—The station disables the handset
amplifier health-check function after the first
failure.
 Replace the
Handset/FSK/ P PCBA.
 Replace the Speaker
Amp/Power Supply
PCBA.
