ROM FAIL

Internal memory has failed

10.8.9

 

 

AdC Error

Analog to digital conversion failed

10.8.10

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

10.8.1 OuEr rAnGE and AMP FAIL.

These error messages appear if the sensor current is too high. Normally, excessive sensor current implies that the sensor is miswired or the sensor has failed.

1.Verify that wiring is correct and connections are tight. Be sure to check connections at the junction box if one is being used. See Section 3.0.

2.Replace the sensor membrane and electrolyte solution and clean the cathode if necessary. See the sensor instruction sheet for details.

3.Replace the sensor.

10.8.2 SEnSor FAIL.

Bad sensor means that the sensor current is a large negative number.

1.SEnSor FAIL may appear for a while when the sensor is first placed in service. Observe the sensor current (go to SEnSor Cur under the diagnostic menu). If the sensor current is moving in the positive direction, there is probably nothing wrong and the error message should soon disappear.

2.Verify that wiring is correct. Pay particular attention the anode and cathode connections.

3.Verify that the transmitter is configured for the correct measurement. Configuring the measurement sets (among other things) the polarizing voltage. Applying the wrong polarizing voltage to the sensor can cause a negative current.

4.Replace the sensor membrane and electrolyte solution and clean the cathode if necessary. See the sensor instruction sheet for details.

5.Replace the sensor.
