No Communication 

...

When the Fuel sensor is connected to the communication Terminal block, it does not communicate with the Elara unit 

...

  1. Check the cables have continuity at both ends. 

  2. Make sure the power supply is 12 volts. 

  3. Check termination of the RS485 communication is properly done.

The device is communicating but giving the wrong data 

...

The Fuel sensor should be taken out of the fuel tank and held straight on a flat surface. 

Ensure the tip of the fuel sensor is 2cm from the base of the fuel’s sensor securing rod 

Read all configurations from the Holykell fuel sensor calibration tab on the Services center. 

Once done perform the Zero calibration on the fuel sensor.

Troubleshooting Steps









No Power 

When the Fuel sensor is

Despite being connected to

the

a power source,

it


the fuel sensor does not receive any power

 Check that

The issue will be identified during the check that the technician should perform with the electronic test tool (FLUKE).

  1. Ensure that the incoming wires from the Power power source are properly secured both at the connector harness and at the Galooli DB. 

  2. Check if the cables have continuity at both ends. 

  3. Make sure the power supply is 12 volts DC. 

 

 

 

Connectivity

  1. at both ends. A power source can be an external source or a Galooli internal connection, such as an Elara cabinet tray/Elara metal box.

  1. Verify that the Network APN is correct.

  2. Verify that the server URL is correct.

  3. Check with the technical support team that the SIM card has been activated.

  4. If you are using a local SIM card, ensure it is an internet-ready SIM card. Subscribe to an active data package or insert an internet-ready SIM card.

  5. Make sure the SIM card you are using is active and country-profiled if you are using a roaming SIM card. Contact the service provider for more information.

  6. Confirm that the server URL/IP address is whitelisted for the SIM if there are restrictions for RMS SIMs in your country. Consult your local

SIM provider for more information.

  1. Confirm the modem is properly connected. If not unscrew the modem connector and properly screw it back in a clockwise direction.

  2. Reposition the modem, and try multiple locations to improve the network reception. Also, ensure crosslink foam is intact

  3. If you are using a local SIM card, confirm there is an internet-ready SIM card present.

ELARA Unit Not Upgrading

  1. Confirm that the Configuration files in the SD card are in the proper order (Expected Files: ELARA.GIB and a folder called "VERSIONS" containing the ELARA.BIN file only). It is recommended to delete all existing files & recopy new Elara files to the SD card

At least one of the MODBUS devices is connected, but others are disconnected

  1. Confirm the Elara is on the latest version, if not, upgrade the Elara Unit

  2. Confirm the ID and Baudrate configured on the device are correct and match the ID and baud rate assigned on the power center. if not log in to the device and configure the correct ID and baud rate

  3. If the device uses different physical and virtual IDs, confirm both IDs are correctly configured. Refer to respective device documentation on the knowledge portal

  4. If there are multiple hardware or software versions of the same device, confirm the right one is selected on the power center. Check the device tag or log in to the physical device to confirm the versions

  5. Confirm the Device power and communication cable are properly terminated, Rewire the device according to specifications. Refer to respective device documentation on the knowledge portal

  6. Confirm Device is configured on the Port-1 Device section. Reconfigure the device as a Port-1 device

All MODBUS Device is Disconnected, none is connected

Confirm the RS485 connection between the terminal block and the Elara RS485 green connector. Check continuity between the RS485 terminal blocks and Elara RS485 Port-1 pins (Do same for A & B).

  1. Check the

“Server URL”, and “Network APN” and the modes in both Port 1+2 (Port 1 must be the host and Port 2 binary).

Elara Configuration is OK on the Power center, all LEDs are green, but not reporting on ZON

...

  1. Confirm the Unit ID on the Power Center matches the Unit ID on the Elara labels. If not, replace the Elara and sent the Elara with the wrong ID for reconfiguration of the ID

  2. If the Elara is installed the same day, you may use the clear Internal log button on the power center. Note that data stored locally in the unit will be lost.

  • Connect the fuel sensor cables to the terminal block properly.

  • Ensure that the terminal block's power supply is 12 volts. 

  • The RS485 connection cables should be connected according to the pinout diagram:

    • On the fuel sensor side

Troubleshooting Steps






Despite receiving power and being properly connected, the Galooli gateways in Power Center are not connected to the fuel sensor

Image Added
  1. Ensure that the fuel sensor ID is configured with the correct baud rate of 19200 and the device ID by the wiring diagram.
