Attach both the input and the exhaust port into the duct. Remove any obstruction. Press any key to bypass the error. Replace the filter cassette. Factory service may be required.
Why TSI Instruments dusttrak II 8530 Measuring Instruments alarm output does not work?
If the alarm output on your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments does not work, it could be due to several reasons: the alarm function might not be turned on, the alarm settings might be incorrect, or the alarm output might be wired with reverse polarity. Turn the alarm function on in the Settings->Alarm screen and check the alarm settings. Also, ensure the alarm wires are correctly polarized, with the voltage input wired to the alarm input (+).
What to do if TSI Instruments dusttrak II 8530 Measuring Instruments laser error is indicated on front screen?
If a 'Laser Error' is indicated on the front screen of your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments, it suggests that the laser background is too high or the laser is failing. Remove and clean the inlet nozzle, paying close attention to the tip inserted into the instrument to ensure it's clear of contamination. Factory service may be required.
How to resolve TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments erratic zero reading?
An erratic zero reading on your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments can be caused by a leak, a dirty inlet port or sample tube, or internal filters not installed properly. Check connections for leaks. Replace the zero filter. Clean the inlet port and tubing. Inspect internal filter wells to ensure filters and o-rings are seated correctly. Replace internal filters if necessary.
What to do if TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments no touch - screen response?
If your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments touch screen is not responding, it may be because the instrument is currently busy or the touchscreen is locked. The instrument requires time to open large data files and save configuration information. During this time, it will not respond to additional touches. If the lock in the title bar is red, unlock the instrument following the instructions in the Chapter 3, Operation: Title Bar section of this manual.
How to fix TSI Instruments dusttrak II 8530 Measuring Instruments analog output that does not work?
If the analog output of your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments is not working, the cable or connector may not be correctly installed, or the output may be wired with reverse polarity. Ensure the cable connector is fully seated and that the analog out (+) and analog ground (-) are wired correctly to the data-logger.
How to resolve TSI Instruments dusttrak II 8530 Measuring Instruments run mode error 'The start time has passed'?
The 'Run Mode Error: The start time has passed' message on your TSI Instruments Measuring Instruments indicates that the selected Run Mode program has “Use Start Date” selected, but the start date is prior to the current date. Correct or change the run mode program.
