  4. 4If the problem continues, replace the control board
  5. 5Clear the fault by cycling power to the SYNC1320 master synchronizer
  6. 6Clear the fault by resetting the processor via an InPower initial calibration
  7. 7Verify if working in non-Auto mode is intentional
  8. 8Check relevant terminal blocks (TB10-6) on the SYNC1320 master synchronizer and related switches for misoperation
