Questions and Answers

    Why do the measured values for the interface and the total level are identical in my Endress+Hauser Levelflex FMP54 Measuring Instruments?
    • L
      lauragillSep 23, 2025
      If the measured values for the interface and the total level are identical in your Endress+Hauser Measuring Instruments, the echo threshold for the total level might be too high due to a wrong dielectric constant. Enter the correct dielectric constant (DC value) of the upper medium.

    What to do if with the setting Tank level = Fully floodedWhen, the measured interface level jumps to higher values during draining operations in Endress+Hauser Levelflex FMP54?

      Bryce MorganSep 23, 2025
      If, with the setting Tank level = Fully floodedWhen, the measured interface level jumps to higher values during draining operations in your Endress+Hauser Measuring Instruments: * The total level is detected outside the upper blocking distance. Increase the blocking distance. * Set Tank level parameter to Partially filled.

    What to do if with the setting Tank level = Partially filled, the measured total level jumps to lower values during filling operations in Endress+Hauser Measuring Instruments?
    • T
      Tracy ShahSep 23, 2025
      If, with the setting Tank level = Partially filled, the measured total level jumps to lower values during filling operations in your Endress+Hauser Measuring Instruments, the total level might be running into the upper blocking distance. Decrease the blocking distance.

    Why CDI communication is not working on Endress+Hauser Radar?
    • J
      Judith ZimmermanAug 31, 2025
      If CDI communication does not work with your Endress+Hauser Radar, the COM port setting on your computer may be incorrect. Check the COM port setting and change it if necessary.

    How to fix the wrong slope of the measured interface level in Endress+Hauser Measuring Instruments?
    • M
      matthewbushAug 25, 2025
      The wrong slope of the measured interface level is caused by the wrong dielectric constant (DC value). To correct this, enter the correct dielectric constant (DC value) of the upper medium.

    Why Endress+Hauser Radar device does not respond?
    • J
      Jason CarpenterAug 26, 2025
      If your Endress+Hauser Radar device isn't responding, it could be due to a couple of reasons: * The supply voltage might not be correctly connected; ensure you connect the correct voltage. * The cables might not be making proper contact with the terminals; make sure there's good electrical contact between the cable and the terminal.

    What to do if Endress+Hauser Radar device measures incorrectly?
    • C
      Courtney GriffinAug 26, 2025
      If your Endress+Hauser Radar device is providing incorrect measurements, the cause could be a parameterization error. To solve this, check and adjust the parameterization of the device.

    What to do if values on Endress+Hauser Radar display are invisible?
    • A
      Amanda PrattAug 27, 2025
      If the values on your Endress+Hauser Radar's display are invisible, here are a few things to check: * The contrast setting might be too weak or too strong. Try increasing the contrast by pressing the indicated buttons simultaneously or decreasing it in the same way. * The display cable plug might not be connected correctly; ensure it is properly connected. * The display itself might be defective, in which case you should replace it.

    What to do if "Communication error" is indicated on the Endress+Hauser Radar display?
    • K
      Kevin GallagherAug 27, 2025
      If you see a "Communication error" message on the display of your Endress+Hauser Radar when starting the device or connecting the display, it could be due to: * Electromagnetic interference. Check the grounding of the device. * A broken display cable or display plug. In this case, replace the display.
