What to do if my Comelit PAC GDX shows 'Not connected'?
If your Comelit Intercom System displays a 'Not connected' message, it means that while a handset was called from a door, the Line Card couldn't find a corresponding handset. Inspect the connection between the door and the Line Card to resolve this.
Why does my Comelit Intercom System display 'Comms problem'?
A 'Comms problem' error on your Comelit Intercom System indicates that the door didn't receive a reply from the Line Card. To fix this, check the Line Card address and CAN data connections.
How to fix Code CA error on Comelit PAC GDX Intercom System?
Code CA on a Comelit Intercom System indicates a problem with the CAN databus. To resolve this, check the wiring and termination headers, specifically PLG7. Note that two PLG7s are fitted per system.
What causes a 'No Lock Supply' issue in a Comelit PAC GDX Intercom System?
A 'No Lock Supply' issue in your Comelit Intercom System means there's no Lock Supply voltage from the Line Card to the door Entrance Panel, PTE Switch, or Fire Switch. Check the cabling and fuse to restore the voltage.
What does Code SS mean on my Comelit Intercom System and how to fix it?
Code SS on your Comelit Intercom System means the programming menu security link is in the wrong setting. Check PLG10 to correct this.
How to troubleshoot Code EE or WEE on Comelit Intercom System?
