How to tare Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 Touch terminals to fix incorrect flow indication with a constant offset?
If the flow indication on your Fluke Touch terminals appears to be incorrect by a constant offset amount, the molbox1+ needs to be correctly “zeroed” (tared) at the current operating pressure. Tare the molbox1+. Be sure to tare upstream if the upstream pressure is constant and downstream if the downstream pressure is constant.
What to do if my Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 display or ?
If your Fluke Touch terminals display or , it means the device has encountered an unresolved internal software conflict. To resolve this, cycle the power to clear the error. Before doing so, record the conditions that led up to the event, including the numbers displayed when [ENTER] is pressed, and report this information to a DHI Authorized Service Provider.
What to do if Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 display is showing pressure values and flashing with two second beeps?
If the display on your Fluke Touch terminals is showing pressure values and flashing, accompanied by two-second beeps, it indicates that the pressure applied to one or both of the absolute RPTs is near overpressure. Reduce the pressure applied to the upstream (HI) and downstream (LO) molbloc pressure connection ports, then cycle the power on the molbox1+.
Why is the flow indication incorrect on my Fluke Touch terminals?
An incorrect flow indication on your Fluke Touch terminals can be due to several reasons: The reference pressure transducer(s) (RPTs) may be inoperable or out of calibration; the gas flowing through molbloc might not be pure; the molbloc may not be used at the correct pressure for its pressure dependent calibration type; there could be a leak in pressure lines from molbloc to molbox1+. Use [P&T] to view pressure indications. Recalibrate RPTs if necessary. Check purity rating of gas used; purge molbox/molbloc if flowing gas was just changed. If gas is a known mix, use the flow adder and multiplier to correct for the mix. Check molbloc Calibration Report for pressure dependent calibration type and check operating pressure. Check lines for leaks and correct if necessary.
What to do if Fluke Touch terminals cannot establish communication over remote interface?
If you cannot establish communication over the remote interface of your Fluke Touch terminals, the computer and/or molbox1+ interface may not be correctly configured, or the interface cable may be incorrect or faulty. Check and correct the interface configurations and cables as needed.
What to do if my Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 display ?
If your Fluke Touch terminals display , it indicates that no molbloc is connected to molbox1+, or molbox1+ is unable to read the molbloc that is connected. Verify proper electrical connection between the molbox1+ and a valid molbloc. If is observed with one molbloc and not others, the molbloc is damaged and/or the EEPROM is corrupted.
What causes excessive tare value on Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00?
If you cannot tare the molbox on your Fluke Touch terminals due to an excessive tare value, it could be caused by one or several defective RPTs, bad RPT calibration, or a leak inside molbox1+ causing a differential pressure. Check the performance and calibration of the RPTs, and perform a leak check on molbox1+.
What causes molbox1+ unable to read molbloc on Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 Touch terminals and how to solve it?
If molbox1+ is unable to read molbloc on your Fluke Touch terminals, it could be due to a disconnected cable or corrupted molbloc data. Check the cable connections, try another molbloc, or reload the molbloc EEPROM.
What to do if Fluke Touch terminals display where a numerical value should go?
If your Fluke Touch terminals display where a numerical value should be, it means that the number to be displayed is too large for the allocated space. This is usually due to an erroneous setting or measurement causing an out-of-limit value to be calculated. Check the settings that may be causing an out-of-limit measurement and adjust if necessary.
What to do if Fluke MOLBOX1 PLUS - V 6.00 display is dim?
If the front panel display of your Fluke Touch terminals is dim, it is likely because the screen saver option has been activated. This is normal operation. Simply press any key to resume full screen power. If desired, you can adjust the Screen Saver activation time in the settings.
