VIII. Common Faults and Troubleshooting

Some channels have no output

Reason: Loose wiring, short circuit of load, trigger of overcurrent protection

Troubleshooting: Measure terminal voltage, disconnect load for testing, check wiring

ALM red light alarm

Reason: Total current exceeds limit, internal module failure, bus abnormality

Troubleshooting: Reduce total load ≤ 12A, test by changing slot position, replace module

Unstable output / Large voltage drop

Reason: Power supply fluctuation, heavy load, SSR aging

Troubleshooting: Confirm 115V AC stable, single channel ≤ 2A, replace module

Hot-swappable (R type) failure

Reason: Rack does not support, module not plugged in tightly, poor bus contact

Troubleshooting: Confirm rack model, power off and reinstall, clean bus interface
