4.2.1 Block/transducer errors
The BLOCK_ERR conditions are listed in Table 4-2. The XD_ERROR conditions are listed in
Table 4-3. The conditions that are shown in italics are inactive for the transducer block and
are provided for reference only.
WETTED_MATERIAL 37 Construction materials of those items in contact with the process:
2 = 316 SST
3 = Alloy
Each material has a different coefficient of expansion.
Wetted material is used as an input to the compensated K-factor
calculation.
XD_ERROR 11 XD_ERROR is a transducer block alarm subcode.
XMTR_MODE 73 For a transmitter equipped with a thermocouple to measure the process
temperature this parameter is used to enable or disable the
thermocouple. This allows the use of one electronics board stack spare
to replace MTA and non-MTA models.
1 = Thermocouple disabled, 2 = Thermocouple enabled
