TROUBLESHOOTING

If you encounter problems, review each of the following items and take corrective action as described. If problems persist, contact Xantech Technical Support.

1.The Waterpad does not have RESTORE or CLEAR MEMORY buttons as does the SmartPad2 or 3. How do I perform these functions on the Waterpad, if needed?

a)To perform the RESTORE function, simply remove the 12 VDC power from the unit for 10-15 seconds, then reapply. Programmed contents in the memory will not be disturbed.

b)To CLEAR MEMORY, remove power as above, but hold down any button on the keypad continuously while reapplying power. Bear in mind that this process will erase all keypad contents.

2.The Waterpad has problems with the transfer of data from Dragon Drop IRTM or execution of IR commands after data transfer.

A corrupted or incorrectly learned IR code has been transferred to the Waterpad or a corrupted code preexists in the Waterpad learning module.

a)Perform the RESTORE or CLEAR MEMORY function on the Waterpad, then repeat the transfer procedure from the Dragon Drop IRTM.

b)If the problem persists, test all IR commands per item 1 in the TROUBLESHOOTING section of Dragon Drop IRTM, replacing any defective commands. Then repeat step a) above.

For additional details on troubleshooting IR programming problems, refer to the TROUBLESHOOT- ING section of Dragon Drop IRTM "Installation and Programming Instructions"

3.The screws that attach the decorator style cover plate over the Waterpad do not screw in fully, preventing the cover plate from being tightened down.

The wall surface is interfering with the ends of the screws, preventing full tightening.

Clearance holes must be drilled in the wall surface to allow full travel of these screws. Follow the procedure in step 2, under Mounting Procedure - Retrofit J-Box.
