Resolution
Solution 1: Clear the error message
- Select Clear Message to clear the error.
- Check for green/amber or orange/amber lights where your network cable plugs into the back of your meter:
- If you see lights, your network cable is connected.
- If you see no lights, make sure both ends of the network cable are plugged in securely.
Solution 2: Restart the machine
- Select the gear icon from the lower right corner of the home screen.
- Select Shut Down from the menu.
- Select Shut Down from the pop-up.
- Wait for the display and blue light to go out. This may take a few minutes.
- Press the Power button.
- Clear any errors and test the connection.
Solution 3: Run the Network Test
If the meter is on version 24 or higher the error code will have a button to run the network test. The network test is the best way to find out what the meter cannot connect too.The Network test can also be run from the settings menu:
- Select the Settings button within Mailing from the Home screen.
- Select Internet & Network.
- Select Network Test.
- Select Perform network test. The icon next to each item tells you the status of the network test.
- A blue circle means the test is still running.
- A green check mark means the test passed.
- A red circle with an exclamation point mean the test failed.
- The URL that the meter could not connect to.
- The HTTP error code for the failure.
- A possible resolution.
If running the network test does not resolve your issue, try solution 4.
