Monitoring and Operating the Controller

4.5.3 Diagnostic Messages

The UDC2500 performs background tests to verify data and memory integrity. If there is a malfunction, a diagnostic message will be shown on the lower display. In the case of more than one simultaneous malfunction, only the highest priority diagnostic message will be displayed. Table 4-4shows the error messages in order by priority. If any of these diagnostic messages appear on the lower display, refer to Section 7 - Troubleshooting for information on how to correct the problem.

Prompt

Description

 

 

EEFAIL Unable to write to non-volatile memory.

IN1FL

Two consecutive failures of input 1 integration.

IN2FL

Two consecutive failures of input 2 integration.

CFGERR

Configuration Errors—Low limit greater than high limit for PV, SP, Reset, or

 

Output.

IN1RNG

Input 1 Out-of-Range

 

Out-of-range criteria:

 

Linear range: ± 10 % out-of-range

 

Characterized range: ± 1 % out-of-range

IN2RNG

Input 2 Out-of-Range—Same as Input 1.

PV LIM

PV Out-of-Range

 

PV = (PV source x PV source ratio) + PV source bias

FAILSF

Failsafe — conditions for failsafe are:

 

… EEROM Test Failed

 

… Scratch Pad RAM Test Failed

 

… Configuration Test Failed

 

… Field or Factory Cal Test Failed

 

Check the “Status” group.

RV LIM

Remote Variable Out-of-Range

 

RV = (RV source x RV source ratio) + RV source bias

SEG ERR

Segment Error—SP Program starting segment number is less than ending

 

segment number.

LOCK

The lockout feature has been enabled to prevent unauthorized changes of

 

certain functions or parameters.

TCWARN

Thermocouple sensor is starting to burnout.*

TCFAIL

Thermocouple sensor is in imminent danger of burning out.*

OUT1 FL

Current Output 1 is less than 3.5 mA.**

OUT2 FL

Current Output 2 is less than 3.5 mA.**

*The Thermocouple Error messages can be disabled via the TCDIAG configuration in the DISPLAY setup group.

**The Current Output Error messages can be disabled via the DIAGAL configuration in the ALARM setup group.
