How it presents
Symptom
Kempower Satellite link to power unit lost — satellite/dynamic pool link before condemning the dispenser. Field techs should correlate HMI/Cloud timestamps with Satellite dynamic power pool — confirm module pool assignment before condemning a stall
Root causes (by observed frequency)
- #1 Primary field cause for KEM-SAT-LINK (Satellite link to power unit lost) on Kempower
Satellite dynamic power pool — confirm module pool assignment before condemning a stall
- #2 Secondary installation or harness issue exposed under load or weather
- #3 Config/firmware drift after update or board/SIM swap
- #4 True OEM module failure after cable/site/config paths are proven
Diagnostic procedure
1. Capture Kempower HMI/Cloud message for KEM-SAT-LINK, connector ID, and last good session
Expected: Exact string + scope
Tools: phone, CSMS
2. Correlate logs; decide one gun vs cabinet vs site for “Satellite link to power unit lost”
Expected: Fault boundary
Tools: CSMS/OEM cloud
3. Run the rank-appropriate field checks for KEM-SAT-LINK (cable/PE/network/cooling as applicable)
Expected: Cause supported or excluded
Tools: DMM, IR, known-good
4. Known-good cable/gun/stall prove when the failure mode allows
Expected: Follows asset
Tools: known-good
5. Escalate Kempower OEM with evidence pack — Satellite dynamic power pool — confirm module pool assignment before condemning a stall
Tools: ticket
The fix
Resolve KEM-SAT-LINK on Kempower by ranked field cause (Satellite dynamic power pool — confirm module pool assignment before condemning a stall), then validate a full session.
Suspect Kempower assembly for KEM-SAT-LINK
OEM channel; keep serials
- Stabilize and document KEM-SAT-LINK presentation before replacing modules.
- Correct the ranked field cause for Satellite link to power unit lost; prefer cable/site/config fixes first.
- Clear latches in HMI/CSMS only after the cause is removed.
- Run authorize → handshake → ≥5 minutes energy → clean stop validation.
- File scrubbed photos, firmware, and readings with the confirmation.
