Guest advent750 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Hi again. I`ve changed the transformer to a 12v 50va ( the only one they had in stock) and I`ve also replaced the battery with a 7Ah one. The system still shows a message on the screen as TRBL Supply, but it can be set and used as normal. Any ideas on this one.
Brian c Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 I'm pretty sure that if your confident that, around 16-24Vac is getting to the Abacus PCB terminals, and you can't clear this message, then whichever component(s) control the power monitoring have packed in. I'm afraid it's a new panel!! If you don't know......ask.
Guest advent750 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Does it have to be 16-24v at the terminals. Will a 12v supply with a high va rating not do the same job.
Service Engineer Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 The 12 VAC TX once it`s gone through the rectifying circuitry and smoothing caps should produce around 18VDC at the regulator, so as far as I `m aware shouldn`t have caused any problems, especially with the TX being 50VA too. ........................................................

Service Engineer Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 What voltage DC are you getting at the AUX terminals..? ........................................................ Dave Partridge (Romec Service Engineer)
Brian c Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Does it still work without the battery connected? If so I reckon the monitoring circuitry must be looking for 18Vac (rated in manual) as the system operates but the message is still displayed. If you don't know......ask.
Guest advent750 Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 I`m getting 12.8vdc at the bettery terminals and 12.6vac at the ac terminals
Service Engineer Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 Are there any other tapping points on the transformer..? Whats the VDC with the battery disconnected..? ........................................................ Dave Partridge (Romec Service Engineer)
Brian c Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 and 12.6vac at the ac terminals 30785[/snapback] There's your problem, I reckon. If you don't know......ask.
Service Engineer Posted November 8, 2004 Posted November 8, 2004 I think you may be right Bri, the panel circuity is looking for a higher voltage and reporting a fault becuse its lower than expected. The panel will probably work ok, except for showing the fault. ........................................................ Dave Partridge (Romec Service Engineer)
