Chapter 8 Troubleshooting and Problem Solving
8 Troubleshooting 8.1. DataReader Troubleshooting 1. Power LED is red: reader malfunction. Replace reader 2. Power LED is off: verify power connection 3. Reader does not respond to host. 3.1 Verify power LED blinks at power on. LED should then remain steady green. 3.2 Verify cable connections are according to diagram 3.3 Verify reader address is correctly transmitted by host 3.4. Verify terminator present at end of the RS485 chain 4. Reader does not read seal 4.
Troubleshooting 8 3. Repeated "No Seals" failure when using the Verify command Possible reasons: a. Incompatible parameters between the Seal and the Reader. The parameters are: ADI, Department, Org ID. b. Low power transmission. c. Antenna disconnected. d. Seals are located too far away. e. Number of windows defined greater than 255. 4. Repeated "Seal Does Not Respond" reply using the Add Verify command. Possible reasons: a. Incompatible parameters between the Seal and the Reader.
8 Troubleshooting 7. Seal does not respond to Hard Wakeup command: Possible reasons: a. The Seal is not in Deep Sleep mode. 8. Set or Reset failure in Reset Status command: Check that the required bit can be changed. 9. Parameter cannot be changed in the Write Parameters command:. Possible reasons: a. The Parameter is not in the Parameter Change list. b. The number of bytes is not compatible with the parameter size. Hi-G-Tek Ltd.
