Coreco EA
Dixell XW controller — external alarm (digital input)

What does Coreco EA mean?
On the Coreco controller (Dixell XW30/XW60/XW70), EA is the external alarm signalled through a digital input configured as EAL (i1F/i2F=EAL). The output is unchanged; the controller flags the condition reported by the external device.
Symptoms
- Display shows EA
- Buzzer sounds
- An external device wired to the digital input has signalled a condition
Common causes
- External device wired to the digital input signalled an alarm
- Digital input contact changed state per its polarity (i1P/i2P)
- Fault in the connected external device
- Incorrect i1F/i2F (EAL) or did delay configuration
- Wiring problem on the digital input
Diagnostic steps
- 01
Identify the external source
EA is an external alarm from a digital input set to EAL. Check the device wired to that input to see what it flagged.
- 02
Check the input configuration
Verify the input polarity (i1P/i2P) and the did alarm delay are correct.

When to call a professional
Because EA originates from an external device wired into the controller, have a qualified technician trace the source if it is not obvious or recurs; electrical access is reserved for qualified personnel.
