UNIT WILL NOT POWER UP ON BATTERIES

Verify batteries (quantity 4, size AA) are fresh and that they are

placed in the battery holder in the correct direction, matching the

polarity shown on the battery holder, and that they are properly

seated. For Intrinsically Safe approved units the batteries are

required to be DURACELL MN1500 type.

If fresh batteries are installed and properly seated into the battery

holder and does not solve the problem, consult the factory.

To isolate the battery circuit, power the unit via the USB cable

powered from either the power supply or the port of a PC or

power supply. Continue on to the following section if the unit still

won’t power up:

UNIT WILL NOT POWER UP VIA USB CONNECTOR
WALL SUPPLY

Ensure that the wall supply is inserted all the way into the wall

socket

Verify that that the AC wall socket is of the proper AC voltage for

the wall supply

Verify that the wall supply is working properly by trying another

wall supply if available or power another USB device.

USB PORT

Plug the PTE-2 into the USB port of a PC. If the unit fails to power

up either the USB port is faulty, the cable is bad, or the HHC has

failed. Consult the factory.

UNIT WILL NOT COMMUNICATE TO A PC via USB cable

Ensure the connector being used to connect to the HHC is a

“Micro B” connector and that the connector used to connect to

the PC port is a standard USB “A” connector.

Ensure both connectors are firmly seated into their respective

female sockets at the HHC and the PC

When plugging the HHC into the PC listen for the “enumeration”

sound coming from the PC , if there isn’t an enumeration sound

either the PC port is faulty or there is a failure inside the HHC. Try

another USB port on the PC, if using a PC with both front and

rear USB ports try both the front and the rear ports

Look for the USB trident icon on the HHC display, if it is there

then the USB system has been properly enumerated

If communication to the PC is still faulty refer to the manual for

the proper set up of all drivers and software on the PC.

If issues still persist, consult the factory
