What to do if the Omron Light Fixture indicates a communication error on the primary sensor's receiver?
If the Omron Light Fixture's primary sensor receiver shows a communication error, it might be due to another F3SJ unit (emitter or secondary sensor) causing interference. Check that all connections are secure and that the internal connector pins are not bent.
How to resolve a lockout state on an Omron Light Fixture?
To resolve a lockout state in your Omron Light Fixture, first identify and eliminate the underlying cause of the problem. Then, reset the F3SJ by either turning the power off and on again or by providing a reset input.
