TROUBLESHOOTING
10.1 OVERVIEW
The 54eA analyzer continuously monitors itself and the sensor for faults. When the analyzer detects a fault in the oxygen sensor or in the instrument itself it displays a fault message. If alarm 4 was enabled, the red FAIL LED will also light and relay 4 will activate. The outputs will go to 22.00 mA or to the value programmed in Section 5.5.
See Section 10.2 for an explanation of fault messages and suggested corrective actions.
The analyzer also displays error and warning messages if a calibration is seriously in error. Refer to the section below for assistance. Each section also contains hints for correcting other measurement and calibration problems.
