Why my Axion 40 Series EDSS does not turn on?
The EDSS might not be turning on due to several reasons: a disconnected or damaged power cable between the battery and EDSS (connect or repair the cable), low or no power supply voltage (check the battery or bus circuit breaker), a disconnected ignition power source (connect the power cable or repair the connector), or blown Front Sign Junction board fuses (replace the fuses).
What to do if there is no power to the Axion Control Unit sign?
If there's no power to the sign, check the EDSS connection and connect the power cable or repair any faulty connectors. Also, inspect the sign connector wiring and rewire if necessary. Finally, examine the Front Sign Junction board Sign fuse; replace it or the entire Junction board if blown.
How to fix Axion 40 Series Control Unit that does not turn on?
If the control unit doesn't turn on, check the Control Unit connection and connect the unit cable or repair any damaged connectors. Also, inspect the Control Unit connector wiring and rewire if necessary. Finally, examine the Control Unit fuse and replace it if it's blown.
Why does my Axion 40 Series sign display incoherent messages?
Incoherent messages on the sign may be due to faulty sign connectors and internal cables (replace them as per the Parts Manual instructions), defective LED-DRIVER-PS boards (replace them as per the Parts Manual instructions), or a faulty Sign LED-DRVR-PS-CPU board (replace it as per the Parts Manual instructions).
How to troubleshoot light intensity not changing with ambient light variations on Axion Control Unit?
If the light intensity doesn't change with ambient light variations, the sign photosensor or window might be blocked or dirty. Clean the sign photosensor or window to resolve this issue.
What does flashing ''Junction Box Relay Defective'' mean on my Axion 40 Series LCD?
A flashing 'Junction Box Relay Defective' message on the LCD indicates a defective relay on the Front Sign Junction board. Replace the Junction board. Alternatively, if the Control Console functionality matches that of Table "Console does not turn on" in Section 5.1.2, replace the Control Console.
What to do if Axion Control Unit shows ''Config Differs From Active Database''?
To resolve this, download the database corresponding to the sign network configuration or reconfigure the Control Console.
What should I do if the LCD seems OK, but the LED remains unlit (or vice versa) on my Axion 40 Series Control Unit?
Replace the Control Unit.
What to do if LCD of Axion 40 Series displays incoherent messages?
