Event Message
Reason
Rperi4:main receiver saturated
failure
Measurement Unit receiver saturated due
to reflections of an obstacle or wrong
Measurement Unit orientation
Rperi8:main receiver signal offset
drift failure
Measurement Unit: receiver, CPU or
internal cable failure
RwinCon1:backscatter high

Table 17 Interface Unit Event Messages
Event Message
Reason
Conf0:VIS measurement only
The interface unit is configured to handle a
measurement unit sensor but no
background luminance sensor.
Conf1:ALS measurement only
The interface unit is configured to handle a
background luminance sensor but no
measurement unit.
Conf2:VIS+ALS measurement
The interface unit is configured to handle a
measurement unit and a background
luminance sensor.
Conf8:configuration failure
The interface unit is configured to handle
neither a measurement unit nor a
background luminance sensor.
InCo1:VIS sensor not responding
Measurement unit is not responding.
InCo2:ALS sensor not
responding
Background luminance sensor is not
responding.
Batt1:Battery Mode
No mains input voltage available, working
on battery.
Batt2:Battery Low
No mains input voltage available, working
on battery.
Battery voltage is low, system will shut
down soon.
CPU1:+12V output disconnected
A short circuit has been detected at the
+12 V output. The output has been shut
down.
Check connected device for short circuit.
To bring the +12 V output back into
operation, the interface unit needs a reset.
CPU2:memory failure
Interface unit CPU detected a memory
failure.
If the failure persists after power-resets of
