Loss of power
The power supply has failed or the main power source has been shut down or is
experiencing a brownout or blackout condition.
Diagnostic Check
 The 4-character display on the C300 Controller and LEDs on the
controller module and the IOTA are off.
 In the Monitoring tab, the C300 Controller icon turns red.
Cause 1
Main power source has been disconnected or shut down either manually
or temporarily by brownout or blackout condition.
Solution
Re-connect the main power source or turn it On or wait for temporary
brownout or blackout condition to pass.
Cause 2

or failed.
Solution
Replace the 24 Vdc power supply or re-connect/replace the power cable.

Power-On Self Test (POST) does not complete
A fault is detected during the Power-On Self Test (POST).
Diagnostic Check
A self test diagnostic code remains on display and the POST does not
continue.
Possible indications: Display shows test pattern, or Tnnn (nnn = a test
number which is executed during POST).
Note that if display shows 'T499' POST has completed.
Cause
The C300 Controller POST has detected a failure that does not allow
startup to continue or complete.
Solution
Short the reset pads on the IOTA to re-start the C300 Controller. If error
persists, replace the controller module. Refer to the section C300
