      Michael SmithAug 2, 2025
      If your YOKOGAWA Measuring Instruments BT200 displays a communication error, it indicates that communication between the BT200 and the connected instrument is disabled. Here are several things to check: * Ensure the BT200 and the instrument are wired correctly, referring to the instruction manuals. * Verify the connected instrument is switched on and functioning. * Confirm a 250 ohms or higher reception resistor is inserted in series in the current output circuit of the connected instrument. * Make sure the communication signal components are not bypassed by electrostatic capacitance. * If possible, try a spare cable or use a multimeter to check the existing cable for breakage.
