Chapter 2. Error Codes and Screen Messages
18 DigitalFlow™ GS868 Service Manual
2.2 E0: No Error
Problem: No error condition currently exists.
Cause: This message appears briefly to confirm that the response to another error message has corrected the
problem.
Action: No action is required.
2.3 E1: Low Signal
Problem: Poor ultrasonic signal strength or the signal exceeds the limits entered via the User Program.
Cause: Poor signal strength may be caused by a defective cable, a flowcell problem, a defective transducer or a
problem in the electronics console. A signal that exceeds the programmed limits is probably caused by the
entry of an improper value in the
SETUP-SIGNL submenu of the User Program.
Action: Using the procedures in Chapter 3, Diagnostics, check the components listed above. Also, check the value
entered into the
SETUP-SIGNL submenu in Chapter 1, Programming Site Data, of the Programming Manual.
2.4 E2: Sound Speed Error
Problem: The sound speed exceeds the limits programmed in the SETUP-SIGNL submenu of the User Program.
Cause: The error may be caused by incorrect programming, poor flow conditions or poor transducer orientation.
Action: Compare the measured sound speed to tabulated nominal values for the fluid being used and correct any
programming errors. Refer to Chapter 3, Diagnostics, to correct any flowcell and/or transducer problems.
2.5 E3: Velocity Range
Problem: The velocity exceeds the limits programmed in the SETUP submenu of the User Program.
Cause: This error may be caused by the entry of improper programming data or by poor flow conditions and/or
excessive turbulence.
Action: Make sure the actual flow rate is within ±75 ft/sec (±23 m/sec) of the programmed limits. See the
Programming Manual for details. Refer to Chapter 3, Diagnostics, to correct any flowcell and/or
transducer problems.
