How to troubleshoot Magnetek inteleSmart2 when it will not power up?
If the Magnetek Receiver won't power up and LED2 is off, check that the power source to the receiver is turned on. Also, check the receiver power connection wiring. Finally, check the receiver fuse F1 and replace it if it's blown. If the fuse blows again after replacement, consult factory.
Why does the MC Relay on my Magnetek Receiver turn off during normal operation?
If the MC Relay turns off during normal operation of the Magnetek receiver, consider the following: * Extend the inactivity timeout setting for the transmitter, because the transmitter may have powered down due to inactivity. * Replace the transmitter's batteries, because the transmitter may have powered down due to low batteries. * If the COM LED stops blinking for more than 3 seconds, change the system's channel setting due to radio interference. * If the COM LED stopped and the MC Relay turned off together within 1 sec, install snubbers across the coils of all contactors to reduce transient voltages and ensure that the power module has a stable power source, because the CPU module may be resetting.
What to do if Magnetek Receiver has intermittent communication?
If the Magnetek Receiver experiences intermittent communication (communication LED3 not lighting up), check for the following: 1. RF Interference: Ensure no other transmitters or communication devices are using the same frequency channel. 2. Transmitter Range: Move the transmitter closer to the receiver. 3. Receiver Antenna: Verify the receiver antenna is attached and properly connected.
Why is my Magnetek inteleSmart2 Receiver not communicating, and the LED displays 0?
If your Magnetek Receiver isn't communicating with the transmitter (LED displaying 0), ensure the RF Channel and Access Code settings are correct using RCP or the receiver seven segment LED. Also, using RCP, check that the receiver and transmitter have the same RF modules.
What causes no outputs when LED1 is blinking on Magnetek inteleSmart2 Receiver?
If the Magnetek receiver is communicating but no outputs are functioning (LED1 is blinking), and the dot on the seven segment LED is not flashing, a firmware download via RCP might be needed, or return for service. Also, using RCP, verify the relay connections and change as necessary if there is an incorrect relay configuration in receiver.
Why is there no response from digital input on my Magnetek Receiver?
If there is no response from a digital input on the Magnetek receiver, using RCP, verify that the digital input is configured for the system. Also, verify that digital input is correct voltage level (either 5 volts or 36 volts), and that RCP has also defined them properly.
What does it mean when Magnetek inteleSmart2 Receiver displays 6 and doesn't communicate?
If the Magnetek Receiver displays '6' on the seven-segment LED and isn't communicating, use RCP to ensure the receiver and transmitter have the same access code.
Why does my Magnetek inteleSmart2 display 7 and not communicate?
If the Magnetek Receiver displays '7' on the seven-segment LED and isn't communicating, use RCP to ensure the receiver and transmitter have the same Project ID number.
What to do if USB connection on Magnetek inteleSmart2 is not responding?
If there is no response from the USB connection on the Magnetek receiver, replace the USB cable. Also, verify you have the latest version of RCP.
Why is there no response from analog input on my Magnetek Receiver?
If there is no response from the analog input on the Magnetek receiver, verify that the jumper (J17) has pins 1 and 2 connected if detecting analog voltage or verify that the jumper (J17) has pins 2 and 3 connected if detecting analog current.
