Troubleshooting

  • The Digi Modem line status LED doesn't flash but stays red — The Digi Modem is trying to make a call but has yet to detect a dial tone. Go to the "Dial Tone Options" in the "Phone Options Menu" and select NO beside the appropriate number.

  • The Digi Modem line status LED changes from red to orange — The Digi Modem is communicating with the Central Station, SmartLink 7 or the Text Messaging server. No action is required.

  • The Digi Modem line status LED changes to green for 1 second — The transmission has been successful. Apart from possibly contacting the Central Station for confirmation, no action is required.

  • If the Digi Modem line status LED changes to red for 1 second — The transmission has not been successful. Try again or contact your Central Station Company.

  • 3 red flashes on the Digi Modem line status LED — The Digi Modem assumes that the phone line is dead. Check the voltage across the A & B terminal. It should be between 40 and 58Vdc. Ensure that the in-coming phone line is wired to terminals A & B.

  • 2 red flashes on the Digi Modem line status LED — The Digi Modem assumes that the telephone handset wired into terminals C & D is off-hook. The customer is probably making a phone call on their handset in which case no action is required.

  • 1 red flash on the Digi Modem line status LED — The phone line to the Digi Modem is ok. No action is required.
