The AX300-I unit is
equipped with an
electronic "watch dog,"
which analyzers the
circuitry within the unit
for potential faults and
renders the unit
inoperable until the
condition is corrected.
(See Watch dog
section below)
Several conditions can
activate the "watch
dog." Dropping the
unit, poor battery
connections, and radio
frequency interference
are the most common
causes. See the watch
dog section for
additional information
A) Disconnect the batteries and
inspect the contacts for
corrosion. Reconnect the
batteries. If the unit functions
properly, calibrate the unit
and reset the alarm values.
B) Try a new set of batteries.
C) Increase the distance
between the unit and any
source of radio frequency
interference. The sensor
cable is a prime source of
pickup as it can act like an
antenna. Relocate the
sensor cable and if possible
change its coiled length to
“de-tune” its antenna effect.
Placing the cable in a
different position may also
help.
