86 Faults
8.2 Fault and other status messages
Faults (synonymously used here for "alarms") during the operation of the
EK280, can be identified by means of status symbols in the first line of the
display (see chapter 6.3.4).
You can obtain further information and messages under the current status
"Stat" and in the status register "SReg". These can be found:
- In the “Cust.” register (only "SReg")
- Under the paths: Admin  Status and Serv.  Status

Please contact the Elster support(see chapter 1.3
"Customer service").
C-fact. err.
The conversion factor could not be calculated as the
measured gas temperature was outside -100°C to +100°C
or no usable compressibility ratio factor was available.
Data error
An error was detected during the cyclic check of the data
subject to calibration regulations.
Please contact the Elster support(see chapter 1.3
"Customer service").
T Alarm Lim.
The measured gas temperature is outside the permissible
limits.
The limit values can be changed when putting the device
into operation in the presence of a calibration officer (see
chapter 5.3.1.11, page 52)
p Alarm Lim.
The measured gas pressure is outside the permissible
limits.
The limit values can be changed when putting the device
into operation in the presence of a calibration officer (see
chapter 5.3.1.11, page 52)
K-val. error
The compressibility ratio factor could not be calculated as
no valid real gas factor could be determined.
z-fact. err.
The real gas factor could not be calculated.
At least one of the gas analysis values Ho.n, CO2, H2,
rhon, is outside the permissible range.
Vm-Alarm
No volume was recorded at the used input for conversion.
(The automatic switchover of the pulse transducer to a
second pulse transducer is not configured acc. chapter
