Scantronic 808

[Wooly-bobs]

I've got an old 808 with a fault that will not clear.

 

The LCD star burst display reads:

 

PAS B H

or 

PA5 B H

as it's a star burst display its difficult to read.

 

Any ideas as all ccts are ok... It fails test on existing eng mode.

Wow, an 808 on starburst

 

Unfortunately I only ever used the starburst as an arming station.

 

Do you have the eng manual though?

Got the manual from the SRI disc but the starburst descriptors dont list this particular fault code... it's a wierd one..

[datadiffusion]

Yeah sorry I didn't notice you were trade.

 

I too checked the manual and like you say it's not in there!

 

Do you deffo get the 'Cant exit faults = 1' type text when you try and exit, but before this, then?

[MrHappy]

some sort of panic prob ?

 

either a button on a circuit or something to do with key 1+3 ?

 

check wiring, power cycle, default reprogram

 

or rip it off the wall & stamp on it....

Yeah I'd have to say even as a scanny fan this is never a panel I've wanted to support.

 

Actually I've only ever fitted an 816. Does the 808 only support starbrust then?

[Wooly-bobs]

I've never been a fan of this particular panel mainly because its mounted in a right awkward place that requires contortion skills to work on..

 

I've checked the wiring, nothing a miss, did power cycle the unit but still a fault. 

I did tell customer that a new unit wasnt out of the question, this thing is old, the clock memory fails on it after being set.

i presume all parts of the starburst function? Its not that bits are missing?

[Wooly-bobs]

Display is ok James. I dont know why a proper keypad wasnt fitted on install. The original company was well known for corner cutting...
