    • C
      Christopher BallardAug 27, 2025
      If the TX LED on your GE Controller isn't lighting up, it means the unit isn't transmitting data. Check the cabling to your modems. If you're connected to a modem or converter, make sure RTS, CTS, and DCD are enabled. If you're using a direct serial connection, try disabling RTS, CTS, and DCD.

    • H
      Henry HayesSep 13, 2025

    • C
      Cindy JamesSep 14, 2025
      If your GE Controller is only allowing diagnostic input, it means no configuration is detected in either NVRAM or EPROM on start-up. Download a configuration remotely via the system monitor and reboot.

    Why is GE iBox Controller rejecting digital output requests?
    • D
      Dillon KimSep 5, 2025
      If your GE Controller is rejecting digital output requests, it could be because the Controls Jumper is in the Local position (JP2 is removed) or the iBox Plant I/O Subsystem monitoring detects a conflict between desired and actual coil status. Move the Controls Jumper to the Remote position (Install JP2) and verify coil status.
