ed.Inadequateinsulationofloopwires.
Temporarily switch detector to be sure
theloopisatfault,andthenrepairit.
LOOPOPEN ALERT9 2 chirps/s
every 15s
AnHY-5Avehicledetector:
Disconnectedloopalert.
Lackofcontinuityintheloopwirepossibly
causedbybrokenloopwireorwire
unpluggedfromdetector.
The loop and lead in wires should be
checkedforproblemsorreplaced.
I²CBUSERROR ALERT10 2 chirps/s
every 15s
AnHY-5Avehicledetector:
Communicationserroralert.
HY-5Ahasbeenremovedorthere’salack
ofintegrityofthesocketconnection.The
display indicates which detector the alert
appliesto:ExitLoop(ELD),InsideArm-
ingLoop(IALD),OutsideArmingLoop
(OALD),CenterLoop(CLD).
Removeandre-installtheHY-5Aand
pressRESET.ReplacetheHY-5A,if
necessary.
Ifcommunicationisnotre-established
within 30 seconds, the controller will
reset and the message changes to
ERROR3.
DETECTORFAULT ALERT11 2 chirps/s
every 15s
AnHY-5Avehicledetector:Malfunction
alertCausedbyafaultwithintheHY-5A.
The display indicates which detector the
alertappliesto:ExitLoop(ELD),Inside
ArmingLoop(IALD),OutsideArmingLoop
(OALD),CenterLoop(CLD).
Removeandre-installtheHY-5Aand
pressRESET.ReplacetheHY-5A,if
necessary.
ONTOOLONG ALERT12 2 chirps/s
every 15s
The Smart DC Controller has an active
loopinput(HY-5Aorboxdetectoroutput)
formorethan5minutes.TheSDC“sees”
anactiveloopformorethan5minutes.
The“active”loopcanbeactualorfalse.
The display indicates which detector the
alertappliesto:ExitLoop(ELD),Inside
ArmingLoop(IALD),OutsideArmingLoop
(OALD),CenterLoop(CLD).
1.Checktrafcpatternsatthesite
andmakesurethatavehicleisnot
parkedontheloop.
2.Determineiftheloopisstable.An
unstable loop can hold the detector
inatriggeredstate.
3.The loop and lead in wires should
becheckedforproblemsand
replaced,ifnecessary.
4.Checksensitivitysettingonthe
detector.
STIFFGATE ALERT13 2 chirps/s
every 15s
The SDC detects a gate that, over time, is
requiringmorepowertomoveit.Usually
caused by degrading gate hardware
ordebrisinaslidegatetrack,thisalert
appearsinthehistorylog.Itdoesnot
affectopeningorclosingthegate.
1.Checkandcorrectgatehardwareas
required.
2.Checkmotorbrushesforexcessive
wear.
STUCKGATE ALERT14
2 chirps/s
every 15s
The SDC detects that it cannot move the
gateatallpossiblycausedbybrokengate
hardwareorice/snowbuildup.
1.Manuallymovethegate.Verifythat
it moves easily and is unobstructed
throughoutgatetravel.
2.Checkandcorrectgatehardware,as
required.
NOTARGET ALERT15 2 chirps/s
every 15s
Target magnet fell off or target sensor
wiresaredamaged.Thetargetmagneton
the chain (slide gate) is missing or has not
beendetected.
1.Makesuretargetisproperly
fastened.
2.Checkthetargetsensortomake
sureitisreadingthemagnet.
3.Change the sensor if it or its wires
aredamaged.
