      Luis OwensAug 5, 2025
      If the Technoton Adapter output frequency is 400, it could be due to the sensor not being calibrated. In this case, calibrate the sensor. Another possible cause is a sensor PCB failure, which requires contacting the closest service center.

    What to do if Technoton Adapter voltage is from 9.5 to 10 V (for DUT-E AF) over 5 V (for DUT-E A5); over 10 V (for DUT-E A10) or current is over 22 mA (for DUT-E I)?

      Zachary RosalesAug 13, 2025
      If the Technoton Adapter shows a voltage from 9.5 to 10 V (for DUT-E AF), over 5 V (for DUT-E A5), over 10 V (for DUT-E A10), or the current is over 22 mA (for DUT-E I), it might be due to a short circuit of the measuring probe tubes caused by metal shavings, burrs, conductive mud, or water at the bottom of the fuel tank. To resolve this, eliminate the short circuit, wash the tubes of the sensor, and clean the fuel tank.

      If the Technoton Adapter output frequency is 1600, it might be due to a short circuit of the measuring probe tubes caused by metal shavings, burrs, conductive mud, or water at the bottom of the fuel tank. To fix this, eliminate the short circuit, wash the tubes of the probe, and clean the fuel tank.

    What to do if Technoton Adapter voltage is from 0.5 V and less (for DUT-E AF) less than 0.4 V (for DUT-E A5 and DUT-E A10) or current is less than 2 mA (for DUT-E I)?

      Mark ClarkeAug 28, 2025
      If the Technoton Adapter voltage is from 0.5 V and less (for DUT-E AF), less than 0.4 V (for DUT-E A5 and DUT-E A10), or the current is less than 2 mA (for DUT-E I), it could mean that the sensor is not calibrated. In this case, calibrate the sensor. Alternatively, it could indicate a sensor PCB failure, which requires contacting the closest service center.
