If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Drift detected, ground voltage offset to terminal 3', it means a critical measurement error is detected on ground voltage offset to terminal 3. Reconnect or repair the sensor. If the problem persists, contact Technical Support.
Why does my Siemens Temperature Controller display 'No symbol is displayed' after a configuration change?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'No symbol is displayed' and the device configuration has changed due to a work process, reset the configuration bit memory to delete the diagnostic message.
Why does my Siemens Temperature Controller display 'No symbol is displayed' when the device state is ok?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'No symbol is displayed' and the device state is ok with no errors from active diagnostics, no action is required.
Why does my Siemens SITRANS TS500 show out of specification?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller indicates 'Out of specification', it means the device has detected deviations from permissible ambient or process conditions. Check the ambient temperature or process conditions, and if possible, install the device at a different location.
What to do if Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller shows electronics defect?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Electronics defect', a replacement of the device is recommended. Contact Technical Support.
What to do if Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller displays 'Volatile memory check failure Maintenance alarm'?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Volatile memory check failure Maintenance alarm' because of a device electronics error, restart the device. If the error continues, the device electronics may have a defect. Repair is required. Contact Technical Support.
Why is 'Backup enabled' on my Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Backup enabled', it means a sensor error is detected, and the backup sensor is in use. Unplug and reconnect the sensor cable. Check if the sensor is operated out of specified limits. If the problem persists, replace the sensor.
What does 'Backup error' mean on my Siemens SITRANS TS500?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Backup error', it means a sensor error is detected at the backup sensor, and no backup is available. Unplug and reconnect the sensor cable. Check if the sensor is operated out of specified limits. If the problem persists, replace the sensor.
Why does my Siemens SITRANS TS500 show an electronics temperature alarm?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Electronics temperature alarm', it means the device is operated outside its specified temperature range. Check the operating temperature.
What does 'Primary variable out of limits' mean on my Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Primary variable out of limits', it means the process value has reached the sensor limit. Review process conditions versus product specifications.
