Outback Power Systems MATE2 - Manual (Page 31)


Advancing errors (the count is increasing on the DEBUG screen) mean the HUB is not finding
a device that was previously there. In order, try the following:
1. Check that the device’s DC breaker is on and operating correctly, that the device itself is on,
and that the CAT5 cable connecting the device to the HUB is plugged in at both ends. Then
re-poll the system (SETUP MATE PG2 COMM REPOLL, see page 29)
2. Check the DEBUG screen to confirm the problem is solved.
3. Swap HUB ports with another device, each using its own CAT5 cable. Re-poll the system
and check for errors on each port. If the error moved, the problem is with the device or
the cable between the Port and the device. If the error remains on the same Port, then the
problem is with the HUB.
4. Try connecting the MATE directly to the device. If the MATE recognizes the device, the
problem could lie with the cable connecting the device to the HUB or with the HUB port
itself. An unrecognized device could itself be damaged.
