still valid. Plan in maintenance for the instrument because a failure is
expected in the near future (e.g. due to buildup).
This status message is inactive by default. It can be activated by the
user via PACTware/DTM or EDD.
The following table shows the error codes in the status message
"Failure" and gives information on the reason and rectification. Keep
in mind that some information is only valid with four-wire instruments.
Cause
– Sensor does not detect
an echo during opera-
tion
– Antenna system dirty or
defective
– Adjustment not within
specification
– Index markers are not
continuously rising, for
example illogical value
pairs
– Failed or interrupted
software update
– Hardware defect
– General software error
– The instrument is still
in the start phase, the
measured value could
not yet be determined
– EMC interference
– Transmission error with
the external communica-
tion with 4-wire power
supply unit
Rectification
– Check or correct instal-
lation and/or parameter
adjustment
– Clean or exchange
process component or
antenna
– Change adjustment
according to the limit
values (difference
between min. and max.
≥ 10 mm)
– Check linearization table
– Delete table/Create new
– Repeat software update
– Check electronics
version
– Exchanging the elec-
tronics
– Send instrument for
repair
– Exchanging the elec-
tronics
– Send instrument for
repair
– Disconnect operating
voltage briefly
– Wait for the end of the
switch-on phase
– Duration depending on
the version and param-
eter adjustment up to
approximately 3 min.
– Remove EMC influences
– Exchange 4-wire power
