Added power and gauge only reads 70 plugged into either terminal. Am I missing something here?

For some reason, they wired the power plug backwards. Be sure you have black to positive and red to negative. Mine worked fine after I powered it correctly. Hope that helps.

Google the sensor and display to find the instructions. I seem to recall that there's a jumper on the circuit board that you need to set for one or two temp sensors. So I'd take a look at the docs before I gave up.

Sounds like you have a bad sending unit or can be the receiver readout it self. I'm trying to remember it's been about a year or when I installed mine. I seem to remember the unit read out would be 70 at times, I think it was when no sending unit was connected to the unit. I would check to make sure the pins on the unit that the sending unit plugs in to are straight and inside the female end make sure the metal receiver hole is nice and tight to the male pin. You also might try bending the mail pin different directions slightly might do the job for you. "G O O D L U C K"

I had the same problem, I went to the manufactures site I was only interested in voltage.They instructed hook together the two red wires for the positive and hook together the larger black with the yellow for the negative leaving the thin 20 gauge black loose. It will show the voltage only and illuminate both windows. Sorry can not help on amps.Richard

hi, could be due to problems of energy. Check the feed if using PoE , could have a poor voltage. My happened to me something!

I have this same problem. Do I need to replace the main circuit board or the display board. I can get all readings, just no lighted buttons such as power, generating etc.

The voltage is not specified in the operator instructions. The 2.1 indicators apparently refer to amperage, according to the information I discovered.

Use a multi meter to measure the voltage at the output terminal while you are adjusting the voltage. The input voltage just need to in the range of the specifications.

Honestly I would just give up and run to an airport or train station and buy a new one from another company. As I said in my review, even when mine was in converter mode, if didn't limit the power like it should. It fried one device, but luckily everything else was dual voltage. If your things are dual voltage, my next question would be are you using it worn an extension cord or power strip, because it doesn't like those. Just make SURE your stuff is rated for the higher volts and plug them straight in.

Check if the power LED lights. Then check if all cables and the 11 pin adapter are good.

If the previous answer does not solve the problem, imo you must return it. But also try something else in the outlet you are using to ensure there is voltage.

Hi Jeff. Did you double check your connections at the sensor? A typical setup should be --1. Constant (+) power wire goes to the 'L' terminal. 2. 'Both' (-) wires from your power source and your device go to the 'N' terminal. 3. Finally, the (+) wire from your device goes to the 'LOAD' terminal. Also, try to adjust the sensitivity/light adjustment on the device while it's powered off. Then apply power. Hope this helps. Dave

I had to provide my own power source. Power is not wired to these points on the circuit board. Start with a simple continuity test using an ohm meter.

With three failures in a row I would (from 30 years of being an industrial electrician) I would inspect your wall sockets. Sometimes these are just connected with the "push" in cheapo deal(It's common in cheaply built homes) instead of the much better wire wrapped and secured by the screw terminal type. I've dealt with situations, even though I would get 120 volts on the meter, things wouldn't run (in this case a forced air furnace). It was an old home and by installing new receptacles and securing the wires properly to the terminals I cured the problem. Good luck.

I will have to check. Only one end needs to be powered. We were using them for sending POS DATA back to a pc, ended up pulling them out and installing a serial over cat5 instead to clear up some intermittent issues we were having. You may not have any trouble with them we had kind of a special setup I think is why we had issues.

Check terminals and check voltage across terminals and also check how many amps it is drawing.

I have not tested it w/power, but it is a straight through connector and should connect anything straight through, if there is not a resistance or current special requirement for POE. It should be easy to check.

Its also been a long while since i installed this but i did just replace my battery terminals and the power wire was all copper. I didnt use the ground because i had an old 0ga ground from awhile back. I also would not recommend trying to put 2k watts through this. Maybe 1k max.... MAYBE

Try connect to the terminal . Not the battery post u want it to feed off the terminal or something that connect after post that way if need to check for power lose it something that doesn't come in to play at that point
