Recommended Corrective Actions for basic Display
Recommended Corrective
Action
Fault.
A critical failure has
been detected in
the Meter body
Use a HART, DE, or FF
communicator to read the detailed
status information from the
transmitter. Refer to the appropriate
communicator manual to get more
information about the possible
causes of the failure.
Cycle power to the transmitter. If
the problem continues to occur,
replace the Meter body.
Electronics module
Fault.
A critical failure has
been detected on
the HART, DE, or
FF Electronics
module.
Use a HART, DE, or FF
communicator to read the detailed
status information from the
transmitter. Refer to the appropriate
communicator manual for more
information about the possible failure
causes.
Cycle power to the transmitter.
If the problem continues to occur
replace the Electronics module.
Meter body comm
fault.
Communications
between the meter
body and the
electronics module
has failed.
This could be the result of a failure
on either of these modules or the
cable that connects them.
Use a HART, DE, or FF
communicator to read the detailed
status information from the
transmitter. Refer to the appropriate
communicator manual to get more
information about the possible
causes of the failure.
Check the ribbon cable that
connects the meter body to the
electronics module. Make sure
that the cable is securely plugged
into the electronics module. Make
sure that all pins are plugged into
the connector (e.g., make sure that
the connector is not offset in a way
that leaves some pins
unconnected).
Cycle power to the transmitter.
If the problem continues to occur
replace the electronics module. If
this does not fix the problem,
replace the Meter body.
