The first digit identifies each type of device:
The digits after refer to that devices address, for example:
DEVICE FAIL 401 = Means that the Remote Input Expander
addressed as 01 has a problem. Check the connections
DEVICE FAIL 202 = Means that the LCD keypad addressed
as 02 has a problem. Check the connections.
DIGI COM FAIL 100: Call to ARC failed. Check all ARC call
details and signalling formats.
MODEM FAULT: System unable to communicate with digi
modem card. Check that it is installed properly (power
system down before removing it/installing it).
