Liquiphant FTL64 HART Diagnostics and troubleshooting
Endress+Hauser 39
10.5 Proof testing for SIL/WHG devices (optional)
3)
The "Proof test" module contains the Proof test wizard, which must be performed at
appropriate intervals in the following applications: SIL (IEC61508), WHG (German Water
Resources Act (Gesetz zur Ordnung des Wasserhaushalts)):
• The wizard can be used via the operating tools (SmartBlue app, DTM).
• The wizard guides the user through the entire process for creating the verification
report.
• The verification report can be saved as a PDF file.
11 Diagnostics and troubleshooting
11.1 General troubleshooting
11.1.1 General errors
Device not responding
• Possible cause: Supply voltage does not match the specification on the nameplate
Remedial action: Apply the correct voltage
• Possible cause: The polarity of the supply voltage is wrong
Remedial action: Correct the polarity
• Possible cause: The cables do not contact the terminals properly
Remedial action: Check the electrical contact between cables and correct if necessary
• Possible cause: Load resistance too high
Remedial action: Increase the supply voltage to reach the minimum terminal voltage
No values visible on the display
• Possible cause: Graphic display is set too bright or too dark
Remedial action: Increase or decrease the contrast with the Contrast display parameter
Navigation path: System → Display → Contrast display
• Possible cause: The plug of the display cable is not connected correctly
Remedial action: Connect the plug correctly
• Possible cause: Display is defective
Remedial action: Replace the display
No background lighting on the graphic display
Possible cause: There is insufficient power available
Remedial action: Increase the supply voltage
"Communication error" is indicated on the display when the device is started or the
display is connected
• Possible cause: Electromagnetic interference influence
Remedial action: Check grounding of the device
• Possible cause: Defective cable connection or display plug
Remedial action: Replace the display
HART communication not working
• Possible cause: Communication resistor missing or incorrectly installed
Remedial action: Install the communication resistor (250 Ω) correctly
• Possible cause: The HART modem is not properly connected
Remedial action: Connect the HART modem correctly
3) Available only for devices with SIL or WHG approval
