Operation Guide, Rev. R

Troubleshooting

Alarm Issues

Alarm, (False) Fan Fail

• Check configuration. Be sure the Fan Status

option is not selected when there is no sensor/

switch for it.

• Check that the IN2 (fan status) input pull-up

resistor switches are fully latched in the correct

positions. Any passive, dry contact should use

the 10K Ohm setting. (See the Connections and

Wiring section of the relevant FlexStat Installa-

tion Guide.)

• Check IN2 (fan status) input wiring.
• Check the connected fan status sensor/switch.
• Using BACstage or TotalControl, check that AI2

(fan status) is not configured as “Out Of Service.”

Alarm, (False) Low Limit (Freeze Stat)

• Check the Low Limit Alarm setting—see

Damper

Setup on page 7

.

• Check configuration. Be sure the Economizer

option is not selected when there is no mixed air

temperature sensor.

• Check that the IN3 (mixed air temp.) input

pull-up resistor switches are fully latched in the

correct positions (see the Connections and Wir-

ing section of the relevant FlexStat Installation

Guide).

• Check IN3 (mixed air temperature) input wiring.
• Check the connected mixed air temperature sensor.
• Using BACstage or TotalControl, check that AI3

(mixed air temp.) is not configured as “Out Of

Service.”

NOTE: After a low limit alarm is generated, the

fan will not run until after the FlexStat is

restarted. (See

Resetting the FlexStat on

page 26

.)

Alarm, (False) Space Temp. or Humidity

• See

Alarms on page 23

.

• See

Temperature Reading Is Incorrect on page 34

.

• See

Temperature Setpoint Is Not Maintained on

page 35

.

• Using TotalControl, adjust the limits or time

delay.

Back-Up Issues

NOTE: Backing up the existing settings and

firmware image before or during the

upgrade process (using the Firmware

Upgrade Tool, TotalControl, or BACstage)

is recommended practice.

• See the documentation for the program used to

back-up the FlexStat.

• See service bulletin SB1111A Back-up and

Restore Issues, concerning unconfigured event

enrollment objects and checksum errors on NIC

cards.

• For HTO-1103 FlexStat Firmware Upgrade Kits

received prior to Feb. 7, 2012 that have Rev. D

(on the silver label) of the programming pod, see

service bulletin SB0212A FlexStat Programming

Pod Jumper Position.

Firmware Upgrade Failures on page 37

.

Communication Issues

NOTE: For a “COMM ERROR” on the display, see

(Advanced) CO2 Sensor (and DCV) on page 11

.

Ethernet/IP Network Communication Issues

Check communication settings—see

(Advanced)

Communications (BACnet) on page 14

KMD-5576 (Data Port) Communication Issues

• For Ethernet-enabled models, a FlexStat in one of

the Ethernet or IP modes must (temporarily) be

set for MS/TP mode (and restarted) to commu-

nicate through the data port at the bottom of the

cover. See

(Advanced) Communications (BACnet)

on page 14

and

Resetting the FlexStat on page 26

.

• Upgrade to the latest version of BACstage (ver.

2.4.0.25 or later required).

• Check the settings for the USB port on the com-

puter (Device Manager > Ports) and the MS/TP port

in BACstage (Access > Connection Parameters).
