Earth fault search results, continued
Fault Not Found If the message in the lower right corner of the LCD reads FAULT NOT FOUND (for a
Location Earth Fault Search) or FAULT CLEAR FAIL (for an IDNet Channel Earth Fault
Search), it means the search could not locate the fault, but it acknowledges that a fault exists.
There are five possible causes for this message:
• There are one or more internal wiring earth(s) in the system.
• There are system defects (hardware or software, such as a failed isolation circuit).
• An intermittent earth exists in the system (it occurs inconsistently and is therefore difficult
to track via diagnostics).
• The cable to the service port may be grounded due to the remote PC's 3-prong plug. Use a
non-grounded plug adapter to the remote PC to get rid of the earth ground.
• The fault is on an auxiliary output that was excluded from the search.
The problem may have to be found manually and then corrected in some of the above
scenarios.
No Fault If the message in the lower right corner of the LCD reads NO FAULT, it means the IDNet
channel search could not locate any earth faults on that channel.
Result Not
Available
If the message in the lower right corner of the LCD reads RESULT NOT AVAILABLE, it
means there is no result to view. This message comes up only when you have selected "Last
Search Result" on the menu.
