After 2 1/2 months and $600, finally got my red lion back from Coleman. All the bill said was repaired. Red Lion still did not work. Sent it to my distributor and he tried the red lion on one of his machines and said it worked fine. On the face of the red lion, on the bottom right hand corner where it says PLC, all I get is dashes. Talked to Al at Coleman and he said the Red Lion isn't communicating with the PLC. I then replaced the cable that runs from the Red Lion to the PLC and the connector that the cable plugs into on the PLC. The orange "Comm" light on the PLC flashes when the cable is hooked up. I'm guessing "Comm" means communicating? The wash works fine, I just can't control anything w/the Red Lion and PLC. Therefore I get no alarms, nor does my paging system work. My next guess was the PLC itself. Spoke w/Al again at Coleman and he said that since the wash was running fine that it could not be the PLC. He said it has to be a connection somewhere. I'm at a loss as to what else to try, short of replacing the PLC. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Also, during this lightning storm, I had to replace the modem in my entry wizard as well. Could the modem for the paging system be the problem???
