    Why won't my TFT Monitor operate from the Y4E-COMM communication interface box or Ladder/Platform version electronics enclosure?
    • J
      James Levine IIISep 10, 2025
      If your TFT Monitor will not operate from the Y4E-COMM communication interface box or Ladder/Platform version electronics enclosure, it could be due to incorrect wiring. Check the blue & white communication wiring. Another possibility is an incorrect INPUTS configuration. Verify that DIP switch #4 setting matches the system wiring (ON for voltage inputs, OFF for ground inputs).

    • R
      Ricky SchmidtAug 25, 2025
      If your TFT Monitor's power LED is on but the unit isn't operating, it may be due to low voltage caused by a wire gauge that is too small, a wire length that is too long, a poor connection, or an inadequate apparatus electrical system. Check the connections and wiring according to section 5.

    What causes one axis to fail on my TFT Monitor from any control station?
    • A
      Adam LongAug 26, 2025
      If one axis on your TFT Monitor fails to operate from any control station, it could be due to several reasons: a loose motor wiring connection (check the axis motor connection), a bad motor control board (interchange motor control boards to see if the problem persists; if not, replace the motor control board), a bad motor (interchange motor control boards; if the problem persists, replace the motor), or a bad membrane switch (replace the membrane switch/operator station).

    Why my TFT Monitor operates only from the monitor control station?
    • D
      Darrell JohnstonSep 12, 2025
      If your TFT Monitor operates only from the monitor control station, the communication board code version may be incompatible. Verify the code versions on the monitor and all operator stations.

    What should I do if my TFT Monitor will not operate from any station and the STOW & OSC LEDs on the monitor are on solid?
    • B
      bobbysanchezSep 8, 2025
      If your TFT Monitor will not operate from any station and the STOW & OSC LEDs on the monitor are solid, it is likely due to a bad communication board. Replace the communication board in the monitor.

    What to do if TFT Monitor only operates from the monitor operator station and STOW & OSC LEDs on the remote station blink slowly?
    • J
      Jeremiah AndersonSep 5, 2025
      If your TFT Monitor only operates from the monitor operator station, and the STOW & OSC LEDs on the remote station blink slowly when a button is pressed, it could be due to incorrect wiring. Check the blue/white communication wiring. Alternatively, it could be a bad communication board. Replace the communication board in the monitor. If the problem persists, replace the communication board in the remote operator station.
