Dsc Power series and IT-100 no communication from either direction

[email protected]
 

Hey Yall. I have a client that has an mc3 talking to a dsc power series panel through an it-100.


the system was working fine up until about a year ago when the link between the processor and the panel just didnt work any more.?


As of this moment, i get no serial data out of the crestron module using keypad button presses or the init function. I also get no data from the security panel using the crestron processor or with pc interface.?


Cabling has been verified a dozen times and im dead in the water,?

Has anyone had an issue with this module not functioning and is there a secret handshake between the it-100 and its 232 companion that starts comm.?


I am not a security installer, so be gentle with that judgement.?

Have you tried a new IT-100? ?This is our setup of choice and the few times this has happened to us, it's been the it-100?

Thank you,

Thank you for your reply Trey, I will try another it100 on my next visit. But I am still very curious as to why i cannot get any output on the TX signal of the power series module. Even with the module running in an otherwise empty program, i cannot make it output. Does it really wait for input from the IT100 to init?

Sorry missed that part, are you using version 1.1 of the module? The TX should always work, the response is what I read you didn't have
