9.1 Troubleshooting instructions
Always start troubleshooting with the checklist below, if faults occur after startup or during
operation. The routine takes you directly to the cause of the problem and the appropriate remedial
measures.
Check the display
No display visible and no
output signals present.
1. Check the supply voltage → Terminals 1, 2
2. Check device fuse → ä 112
85 to 260 V AC: 0.8 A slow-blow / 250 V
20 to 55 V AC and 16 to 62 V DC: 2 A slow-blow / 250 V
3. Measuring electronics defective → order spare parts → ä 107
No display visible, but
output signals are present.
1. Check whether the ribbon-cable connector of the display module is correctly plugged
into the amplifier board → ä 107
2. Display module defective → order spare parts → ä 107

Error messages on display
Errors which occur during commissioning or measuring operation are displayed immediately. Error messages consist of a
variety of icons. The meanings of these icons are as follows (example):
– Type of error: S = system error, P = process error
– Error message type: $ = fault message, ! = notice message
– EMPTY PIPE = Type of error, e.g. measuring tube is only partly filled or completely empty
– 03:00:05 = Duration of error occurrence (in hours, minutes and seconds)
– #401 = error number
"
Caution!
• See the information on → ä 60.
• The measuring system interprets simulations and positive zero return as system errors, but displays them as notice
messages only.
