What to do if Advanced Control Panel displays 'ACTUATOR CIRCUIT' 'SHORT CIRCUIT' or 'OPEN CIRCUIT'?
If the Advanced Control Panel displays an “ACTUATOR CIRCUIT” with a “SHORT CIRCUIT” or “OPEN CIRCUIT” message, it indicates a wiring fault on the actuator circuit. Check the wiring. It can also mean that the wiring or actuator has been changed or modified. In this case, re-learn the new actuator characteristics.
Why is my Advanced Control Panel stuck in Manual Only Mode after commissioning?
If your Advanced Control Panel is stuck in Manual Only Mode after commissioning, it might be due to the factory settings defaulting to this mode. To change this, navigate to Level 2 Menu->EXTINGUISHIN MODES->TRIGGER and select ‘AUTO+MANUAL’. Keep in mind that restoring factory settings will reinstate Manual Only Mode.
How to fix 'ACTUATOR CIRCUIT' 'NOT READY' on Advanced ExGo Ex-3001 Control Panel?
If the Advanced Control Panel display shows the condition “ACTUATOR CIRCUIT” “ NOT READY”, it means that the actuator type has not been ‘learnt’ or a wiring fault caused the learn process to be aborted. The control panel must determine the exact characteristics of the actuator and wiring connected to the Actuator terminals. This can be done from the commissioning menu: COMMISSIONING->EXTINGUISHING->OUTPUT SET_UP.
