DIAGNOSTICS DEVICE ERRORS

Table F-17. Device Errors Diagnostics

In addition to the BLOCK_ERR and XD_ERROR parameters, more detailed information on the measurement status can be obtained via DIAGN_DEV_ALERT. Table F-17lists the potential errors and the possible corrective actions for the given values. The corrective actions are in order of increasing system level compromises. The first step should always be to reset the gauge and then if the error persists, try the steps in Table F-17.Start with the first corrective action and then try the second.
