Troubleshooting
Warning messages
Warning messages appear on the LCD display to alert the user of user-repairable problems with the
transmitter, or current transmitter operations. Warning messages appear alternately with other
transmitter information until the warning condition is corrected or the transmitter completes the
operation that warrants the warning message.
Table 5-1. Diagnostic Message Troubleshooting
LCD display messages Host diagnostic message Possible problems Recommended actions
AP GP LIMIT Static Pressure Out of Limits
The static pressure is exceeding
the sensor limits.
Verify process conditions are
within the sensor limits.
BOARD COMM ERROR
Feature Board
Communication Error
The feature board electronics
are experiencing
communication problems. This
problem may be temporary and
could clear automatically.
Cycle power to the device. If the
problem persists, replace the
feature board electronics.
CURR SAT
Primary Variable Analog
Output Saturated
The primary variable has
exceeded the range points
defined for the
4–20 mA analog output signal.
The analog output is fixed at the
high or low saturation point and
is not representative of the
current process conditions.
Verify the process conditions and
modify the analog range values if
necessary.
DP LIMIT
Differential Pressure Out of
Limits
The Differential Pressure is
exceeding the sensor limits.
Verify that the process conditions
are within the sensor limits.
FAIL BOARD ERROR Feature Board Error
The feature board electronics
have detected an unrecoverable
failure.
Replace the feature board
electronics.
FAIL PT ERROR
Process Temperature Sensor
Failure
The process temperature sensor
has failed or is incorrectly wired.
Check the sensor wiring and fix
any shorts or open connections.
If the sensor wiring is correct,
check the PT sensor and replace if
necessary. If the problems
persists, replace the feature board
electronics.
FAIL SENSOR ERROR Sensor Module Failure
The SuperModule
™
assembly is
providing measurements that
may no longer be valid.
Verify the sensor module
temperature is within the
operating limits of the transmitter.
Replace SuperModule assembly if
necessary.
FLOW CONFIG
Updating Flow Configuration
- Flow Values Constant
A flow configuration is currently
being downloaded to the
transmitter. During the
download, the flow output will
be fixed at the last calculated
value. Once the download is
complete the transmitter will
resume live calculations.
No action is required. Wait until
the flow configuration download is
complete before performing other
configuration tasks.
