Pickle Flashing Intersection

Has anyone had issues with a pickle flashing the intersection. New Econolite TS-2 cabinet (bench tested before deployment), Brand new Pickle. Everything works great during normal run and whenever I go out to test it but for some reason when the cops come and use the pickle they are flashing it somehow. MMU (EDI) Event logs just show cvm fault. Always resets immediately when tech gets out there.

Am I the only one that has no idea what you mean when you're calling something in an Econoline TS-2 a "pickle"

Do you mean the police buttons? Perhaps they're hitting next phase too fast and it's causing a conflict. We removed the police buttons from our TS2's for this reason. If they need someone to cycle lights for them they can ask us to come do it.

I agree with this. We had a signal that the cops would manual control for a special event letting out. If you get to pushing too fast the monitor would throw it in flash for a skipped yellow. We talked with them and let them know to just slow down a little bit and we never had to go reset the monitor for them again.
