Hi, I'm using the 1-4a adjustable 4 channel circuit breaker with the PM S-R. I don't have any software diagnostic ability with this device, so am hoping you could help. I've looked over every page of the instruction manual, but don't see my issue mentioned. Everything appears to be working just fine, all devices on all four channels have power. I've set all channels to 2A. Programming mode appeared to exit just fine. However, every 4 seconds, all of the green leds on the circuit breakers momentarily become orange (yellow?) and pulse seemingly twice. Then immediately become green again. This repeats forever. No issues otherwise noticed though. Any idea what this is trying to tell me? I'm powering via an older 24v 20a to Quint UPS to 7ah battery, through to a 12v 8a Quint Power, which directly feeds the Caparoc PM. No signal pins or data connections. Thank you
I've also tried holding down the power led on the PM for a few seconds to hopefully satisfy something there but the circuit breaker flashing continues.
Hello @@meaneraverager, the yellow double flashing means that the internal communication is interrupted. In most cases, this indicates that the data bus metals of the first yellow flashing module have been damaged or pushed too far into the housing. Please check the data bus metals of all modules. Unfortunately, the only solution is to replace the damaged module.
Thank you so much! Your support here is excellent. I was able to bend the pins outward with a standard terminal block screwdriver. It took a few tries, but that did the trick!
After I adjust the rotary switch, the button starts to blink but after I hold for a few second it never confirms. I tried holding for more than 2 sec it still cannot confirm. What could be the problem?
Hello MrFocusSA, it looks that the parameterization lock has been set on the CAPAROC system, in this case it is not possible to change the nominal currents on the device without further ado. The lock can either be removed via the communication interface or by pressing the PWR LED button on the power module for 3 seconds; the LED would flash green 3 times to confirm that it is unlocked now. However, if no LED can be operated, the user interface has been locked via Profinet, for example, and can only be unlocked via an interface such as Profinet in that case.
Came for the tutorial, stayed for the rave. This track slaps.

@@PhoenixContactTechnical The unlock via the power button worked! Thank you so much for the quick answer.
