7.2.6 Error Messages

There may be occasion when an invalid configuration error might display because the configuration between the Centurion controller and its devices are out of synch--that is to say the checksums do not match. In fact, the invalid configuration screen will appear briefly after downloading configurations until comparisons are made.

Field testers may decide to ignore the message, if the user knows that the changes are not critical. The user may direct the error message to be ignored through a setting at the super user (password protected) menu. At CONFIG FAIL DISABLE, the user would select Yes to ignore the data mismatch.

The setting is temporary as once power is cycled on the Display, the error message will continue until comparisons between the devices yield no configuration mismatch.

However, if the user knows of changes that might have resulted from changes made fine tuning in the field and wants to synchronize the data, he may choose to do so and there are a couple of options available.

A super user could choose to also download the configuration from the super user menu on C3-3 Display.

A user who without access to the super user menu could activate the download through the Special Jump Code 35.

Note that this error message does not always indicate a prob- lem, but may only signify that initial comparisons between devices do not match. This screen will appear briefly after configuration downloads and may appear briefly after initial communication is established until comparisons are com- plete.

The fault can be resolved by downloading the proper configu- ration to one or both devices.
