Trouble Tables diagnostics
The Trouble Tables analog addressable diagnostics tool displays multiple
categories of active device troubles. The active troubles should be compared
with a device’s trouble history (Device Trouble tab) to determine any possible
trouble pattern.
Click the Trouble Tables tab to see the list of active device troubles. Press F1 to
open the Trouble Tables Help topic, which provides instructions and descriptions
for the information provided.
The Device Address, Loop, and Label columns on the Trouble Tables list the
address, loop, and label of the sensor and module talking to the 3-AADC1 analog
addressable controller. The total number of communicating devices should equal
the number of installed devices. If the total is less then the number of installed
devices, see the Communications Fault column for missing devices or devices
not connected. If the total is higher then the number of installed devices, see the
Unexpected Fault column to identify extra device(s) installed on the loop.
Table 71 describes analog addressable device faults reported by the analog
addressable controller and their possible causes.
