Status alarms

Status alarms are reported by a PROFIBUS host, the display, and ProLink II software. Remedies for
the alarm states appear in Table 6-4.
Note: Some status alarms will cause all of the function blocks (AI, AO, and totalizer) to change to Out
of Service mode.

Possible remedies
Cycle power to the transmitter.
The flowmeter might need service. Contact Micro Motion Customer
Service.
Cycle power to the transmitter.
The flowmeter might need service. Contact Micro Motion Customer
Service.
Check the test points. See Section 6.12.
Check the sensor coils. See Section 6.14.
Check wiring to sensor. See Section 6.9.2.
Check for slug flow. See Section 6.10.
Check sensor tubes.
Check the test points. See Section 6.12.
Check the sensor coils. See Section 6.14.
Check wiring to sensor. See Section 6.9.2.
Verify process temperature range is within limits for sensor and
transmitter.
Verify flowmeter characterization. See Section 6.7.4.
Contact Micro Motion Customer Service.
Check the test points. See Section 6.12.
Check the sensor coils. See Section 6.14.
Verify process conditions.
Verify that transmitter is configured to use appropriate measurement
units. See Section 4.5.
Verify flowmeter characterization. See Section 6.7.4.
Re-zero the flowmeter. See Section 3.6.
Check the characterization. Specifically, verify the FCF and K1
values. See Section 3.3.
Contact Micro Motion Customer Service.
Check the test points. See Section 6.12.
Check the sensor coils. See Section 6.14.
Check for air in flow tubes, tubes not filled, foreign material in tubes,
coating in tubes.
Verify characterization. See Section 6.7.4.
Allow the transmitter to warm up. The error should disappear from the
status words once the transmitter is ready for normal operation. If
alarm does not clear, make sure sensor is completely full or
completely empty. Verify sensor configuration and transmitter wiring
to sensor (refer to installation manual).
