self-diagnostics on a device and check for incorrect
data settings.
(1) Using DD and DTM
The Self test and Status commands are available
for self-diagnostics. When Self test is run, the
display unit shows an error code and alarm
message if the device detects any illegal parameter
settings or functional faults.

Self test
If no error is detected, “Self test OK” is displayed on
thecongurationtool.

check, you can directly call up the item by using the
Status command.
The status is categorized from 1 to 7. Read the
table at the end of Section 9.9.

Status group 1.
• Procedure to call up the Status display
[Root Menu]→Diagnosis/Service→Test/Status→
Status→Statusgroup1
If no error is detected, “Off” is displayed on the
congurationtool.
If there is an error, “On” is displayed on the
congurationtool,andacountermeasureforthat
error is necessary.
Example of display: Span > 10 m/s On
Span < 0.3 m/s Off
TTL > 10000 p/s Off
TTL < 0.0001 p/s Off
4-20 Lmt Err Off

NOTE
Fixed current output, Flow Simulation Mode,

continue for a given holding time, then is
released automatically. Even if the HART
congurationtoolpowersupplyisturnedoffor
the communication cable is disconnected, the
test output will continue for that time.
The holding time can be selected from 10 min,
30 min*, 60 min, 3 hour, 6 hour or 12 hour.
