Intermittent off-line occurrences
The problems described above are the most common problems encountered with
ACS550 serial communication. Intermittent problems might also be caused by:
• marginally loose connections
• wear on wires caused by equipment vibrations
• insufficient grounding and shielding on both the devices and on the
communication cables.
