If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Loop current in saturation', it means the loop current has reached its upper (or lower) saturation limit and cannot increase (or decrease) any further. Adjust loop current scaling.
How to resolve 'Function test' on Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller when the output signal is frozen?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Function test' because the output signal is temporarily invalid (e.g., frozen) due to work being performed on the device, use manual mode over HMI or disable the engineering system.
What does 'Maintenance required' mean on my Siemens Temperature Controller?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Maintenance required', it means that while the output signal is still valid and no functional restrictions have been determined, the wear reserve will most likely be exhausted in the next few weeks. Plan maintenance for the device.
How to troubleshoot a Siemens Temperature Controller failure related to hardware configuration?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Failure' due to parameter setting, connection error, or configuration error in the hardware, check the hardware configuration of the device using the HMI or engineering system.
What to do if Siemens SITRANS TS500 Temperature Controller shows 'Function test' due to incomplete safety validation?
If your Siemens Temperature Controller displays 'Function test' because safety validation is not complete, acknowledge the safety event in the Functional Safety menu and repeat safety commissioning.
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.
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 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.
