Chapter 4 Troubleshooting and Module Removal
4.1 Trouble-
shooting
Overview
This chapter provides information about OV|41 error and failure identification.
The first indication of a problem is usually a message displayed on the LCD
screen. Responding to an error involves identifying the nature of the error and
taking appropriate action to finish the transaction. Responding to a failure
involves identifying the nature of the failure and taking appropriate action to
restore the OV|41 to service. When service cannot be restored, the module
needs to be replaced with an operational one.
To reiterate what is said in the preceding paragraph, a maintenance technician
should troubleshoot OV|41 errors by:
Making sure the OV|41 can power on.
Making sure the correct software versions are on the OV|41.
4.1.1 Out of Service Shown in Figure 4-6, the ‘Out of Service’ screen is displayed when the OV|41
is in ‘Out of Service’ mode. The device will not read or write to any Farecards.

When a critical alarm is detected, the OV|41 switches to Out-of-Service mode.
Possible causes include:
Micro SD-card access failure.
Card reader failure.
No currently active business configuration data or other software versions.
The solution is to remove and replace the OV|41. If the failure persists, contact-
ing the Helpdesk is the appropriate action.
4.2 Error Identi-
fication
When an error occurs, an indication of the error appears on the LCD. This is the
first place to look for messages such as Already Tapped ( Figure 4-7). Errors
interrupt one type of fare transaction.

Replacement devices will be pre-initialized. The system provider is not respon-
sible for either initialization or creation of system initialization modules.
NOTE: The back-up module holds the last shift data and the device ID only.
No configuration is needed for creation of the device back-up module. Use an
empty micro SD card, insert in the slot, power on the device. The device will rec-
ognize the empty micro SD card and will initialize it automatically. If the device
detects a non-empty micro SD card, the device will reject the micro SD card and
remain out of service. The device initialization through the back-up module will
be completed with a synchronization through IVN. Spare back-up modules
(micro SD cards) will be provided with each spare device. The service provider
is responsible for providing additional spare back-up modules
If the device is faulty, transfer the faulty device’s back-up module to the new
replacement device. There will be no loss of device data. Avoid using an empty
back-up card. Only use an empty card during a device swap if the original back
up module is lost, defective, or the entire device/back-up combination is not
available. Maintenance staff should be careful not to damage or lose back-up
modules when swapping faulty devices, because all backed up data will be lost.
Users may determine if a device back-up module is faulty by checking the Back-
end system.

4.2.3 Recovery
Scenarios
If the OV|41 is faulty and the Back-up MicroSD card is still intact, follow Recov-
ery Scenario 1. If the MicroSD card is lost, damaged, or defective but the OV|41
is functional, follow Recovery Scenario 2. If both the OV|41 and the Backup
MicroSD card are damaged (a double failure), follow Recovery Scenario 3.
4.2.3.1 Recovery
Scenario 1
When the OV|41 is faulty and the Backup MicroSD Card is still intact, follow
these steps.
STEP 1: Remove faulty OV|41 from the bus (unplug data (Cat-6 cable) and power –
remove from the pole).
STEP 2: Remove the Backup MicroSD card from the malfunctioning OV|41 (spring
loaded, pressing it down will pop it up for removal). It is a small module; be
careful handling it.
STEP 3: Install new OV|41 on the bus (following the standard installation process).
STEP 4: Insert the working MicroSD Backup card (from faulty OV|41) into the new OV|41
(left slot).
STEP 5: Turn on the OV|41 (hook up data and power cables and re-attach to pole).
STEP 6: OV|41 goes through a recovery process (configures IP, data, transactions, etc.).
STEP 7: OV|41 will reboot after the recovery process. At this point the device is identical
to the failed one.
STEP 8: Turn on the device and sync to Backend system (to receive updated lists /
version data) – confirm that the OV|41 is operational and communicating online.
STEP 9: DATA STATUS: NO data loss.

4.2.3.2 Recovery
Scenario 2
If the MicroSD card is lost, damaged, or defective but the OV|41 is functional, fol-
low these steps.
STEP 1: Open the OV|41 cover. If necessary, remove the faulty backup module.
STEP 2: Insert a formatted new MicroSD-Card. The device auto recovery function will
copy the correct Backupmodul.ini file onto the new card (ini file is now also
saved on device internal hard disk) and backup the data.
STEP 3: DATA STATUS: NO data loss - All transaction data will be retrieved from the
working OV|41 and uploaded to the Backend system.
If Manual Data Recovery must be attempted, follow these steps.
STEP 1: Create a Service Modul to execute the Service Command automatically on the
Device. This may be created on Backend system in Offline Modul processing.

4.3.0.1 Recovery
Scenario 3
If both the OV|41 and the Backup MicroSD Card are damaged (a double failure),
follow these steps.
STEP 1: Remove the damaged OV|41 from the bus; it needs to be replaced.
STEP 2: Send OV|41 (along with its MicroSD backup module) to Central Repair Depot to
attempt retrieval of the shift files (data recovery may not be possible depending
on the extent of the damage).
STEP 3: Install a new OV|41 on the bus.
STEP 4: Insert new Backup SD card which has the file Backupmodule.ini with the correct
ID setting (this number will be the same as the one on the original backup
module, and can also be seen under Extended Parameters in Device
Maintenance). The OV|41 will configure itself and use the SD card as the backup
module when it is powered on.
STEP 5: DATA STATUS: Possible Loss. The transaction data generated since the last
IVN sync is at risk of being permanently lost in the case of the dual failures of
both the OV|41 and Backup module. If the main logic board of the OV|41 is
intact, or if the SD card can still be read, then data recovery at the Central Repair
Depot may be possible.
Please note: The format for the ID number in the Backupmodule.INI file is as fol-
lows:
AABBBBBBCC, where AA is the provider number (12 for WMATA), BBBBBB is
the 6 digit device ID (such as 020001), and CC is the position in the bus of the
OV|41 (02, 03, or 04). Thus, an example number would be 1202000103. This
information is also available by opening the INI file in notepad, and is easily set.
Here is an example:
Backupmodul.ini Identifier=129999902
Operator ID 12
Busnumber 999999
OV|41 1.
4.3 Verifying
Software
Versions
As a troubleshooting step, a maintenance technician may verify the device soft-
ware versions with the expected version. If the versions are different, the techni-
cian should request that the Backend system Operator confirm that the new
software versions are linked to the device. If so, attempt the device software
download through the Backend system maintenance of jobs.

5.2 Preventive
Maintenance
Schedule
Summary
The following table is a single source that summarizes all of the preventative
maintenance procedures mentioned in this chapter. Use this table to determine
what procedures that need to be accomplished, and when they should be
scheduled.
When the recommended preventive maintenance intervals have both a
time period and a receipt usage maximum, then preventive maintenance
must take place when either the time or the usage maximum is reached.
These are maximum maintenance intervals, which may have to be
reduced, and they assume average usage in a moderate environment. If
certain devices are heavily used or exposed to atypical environmental
conditions, such as extreme temperature fluctuations or nearby construc-
tion work, then preventive maintenance must be undertaken more fre-
quently in order to reduce the amount and frequency of field
maintenance. Operation and maintenance histories should be consulted
and preventive maintenance procedures undertaken for those devices
and locations where experience shows more frequent preventive mainte-
nance will reduce field maintenance.

Features
OV|41 operating characteristics are shown in Table 6-9.
6.5.1 OV|41 Mounting
and
Environmental
Considerations
During transportation and when OV|41 equipment is installed but not opera-
tional, the environmental and storage conditions of Table 6-10 must be met. The
requirements for OV|41 equipment mounting must also be met. Observing these
requirements is the responsibility of the Transit Authority, its architect, and
installers. Minimum clearances, minimum distances from obstructions, place-
ment in a convenient location, and the comfort of the operator are all consider-
ations that should be foremost in the minds of those planning the installation.
The OV|41 should be operated only when “office environmental conditions” exist
in the workplace.
Non-operational environmental and storage conditions must be observed!
Non-operational environmental and storage conditions apply when the
OV|41 is installed but not operational. During operation “Office
Environmental Conditions” must be provided.
