RDCM Addr CONFIGURATION FAULT On The RDCM has failed its check
of configuration memory. The
configuration settings are set to default
values when this happens.
• Re-initialize the control unit by first
removing, and then re-applying,
primary and secondary power
sources
• Reconfigure the module using PC
configuration software or the control
unit menu
• Functionally test the system.

LAM
Addr COMMUNICATION FAULT On A communications fault between the
Main Controller Board and the LAM at
address Addr.
• Check the RS-485 wiring from Main
Controller Board J8 to LAM Board
J8. Refer to Figure 2-41.
• Check for a discontinuity in the
RS485 field wiring to LAM.
• Troubleshoot wiring to LAM J8 by
breaking-up the circuits to isolate
short circuit to specific leg or legs.
• Check for 24 Vdc power at LAM J6.
• Ensure that the LAM's RS485
Termination Jumper W2 is set
correctly.
• Check for duplicate addressed LAMs.
LAM
Addr NOT REGISTERED On The control unit has not been set up to
expect the LAM at LAM RS485 circuit
address Addr.
• Register the LAM if part of system
configuration.
• De-register the LAM if not part of
system configuration.
• Check the 24 Vdc power (J4) and
RS485 communications (J8) wiring
from the control unit to the LAM.

A problem with the 24 Vdc power at J6
or an open circuit in the LAM's
monitoring circuit from J5 to the
normally-closed trouble contacts of its
associated remote power supply
• Check for 24 Vdc power at LAM
Board J6.
• Look for discontinuity in wiring from
Terminals 3 and 4 to remote power
supply trouble contacts.
• Check for trouble with third-party
remote power supply.
LAM
Addr PSU DETECTED FAULT On The module is configured to not
supervise a Remote Power Supply but a
short circuit is detected on the PSU
Supervision input terminals.
• Reconfigure the module to supervise a
remote power supply –or-
• Disconnect any input on the Remote
Power Supply terminals of the LAM
