In this display the Novo verifies there is a wired
connection to the host controller.
1. Pressing the NEXT / OK button will show
the following in Figure 15-3.
2. Pressing the Down “-“ button will select
the lower submenu.
Note: Any row displayed with a “+” is “On”
even if the decoder has failed to operate.
This is useful in determining whether a
non-operating station is actually receiving
information from the host controller
(through the Novo or an external Sender(s).
3. When the host controller turns on a station,
the corresponding station position will be
displayed as an “+” symbol.
4. Other stations not turned “On” will be
displayed as a “-“.
Note: Station 64, although displayed is not usable
and will always be a “.” Or “-“ even if Sender #8 is
connected to a host controller.
5. If a station is displaying a “+” symbol and the
corresponding decoder has not come on,
then refer to the Troubleshooting Section.
If a “–“ or “.” is displayed, then it is not being
asked to turn “On”. Verify the Novo station
wiring or Sender (if installed) wiring on
the host controller. A row of “.” indicates the
Sender is not connected to the 2Wire path or is
programmed incorrectly or is faulty.
Figure 15-1 shows the top level of the
Diagnostics Menu. Pressing the “Next
/ OK” button will display the screen
below.
Figure 15-2 displays two Diagnostic
menus. Pressing the “Next / Ok”
button will display the “View Sender
Commands” screen while pressing
the “-“ button will select the lower
menu, “Edit Decoder Setup”
Figure 15-3 displays stations 1-32 are
available and stations 33-64 do not
have Senders currently connected
