What does A-17 mean?

This alarm is displayed on the remote terminal when a button has been held down for an extended period (more than 10 seconds), or if the keypad is disconnected. It suggests a physical issue with the terminal's buttons, or a faulty connection of the keypad itself, which can prevent proper input.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Inspect all buttons on the remote display terminal for any that may be physically stuck in the pressed position.

  2. 2

    Verify the secure connection of the keypad module to the remote display terminal.

  3. 3

    Clean the keypad surface and buttons to ensure no foreign material is causing interference.

  4. 4

    If the issue persists after checking buttons and connections, replace the remote display terminal.
