RitE Err CPU PCB jumper (JP-1) has been removed RitE Err
bAd SEnSor
Bad sensor means that the sensor current is a large negative number.
bAd SEnSor may appear for a while when the sensor is first placed in service. Observe the
sensor current (go to SEnSor Cur under the Diagnostic menu). If the sensor current is
moving in the positive direction, there is probably nothing wrong, and the error message
should soon disappear.
Procedure
1.
Verify that wiring is correct. Pay particular attention to the anode and cathode
connections.
2. Verify that the transmitter is configured for the correct measurement.
Configuring the measurement sets (among other things) the polarizing voltage.
Applying the wrong polarizing voltage to the sensor can cause a negative current.
3. Replace the sensor membrane and electrolyte solution and clean the cathode if
necessary.
