„Watchdog" function, monitoring the serial data flow
The following applies to situations where the watchdog function is
enabled (see Namur instructions). If no new transmissions of these
commands from the PC take place within the preset watchdog
time, the heating and stirring functions will be shutdown according
to the watchdog mode selected or will be controlled using the
preset setpoints.
An operating system crash, a PC power failure or a fault in the
connecting cable to the RET control can cause an interruption in
data transmission.
"Watchdog"– Mode 1
If an interruption in data transmission occurs which is longer than
the preset watchdog time, the heating and stirring functions will
be shutdown and the error message ER 2 will be displayed.
"Watchdog"– Mode 2
If an interruption in data transmission occurs which is longer than
the preset watchdog time, the speed setpoint value will be set to
the WD safety speed setpoint and the temperature setpoint will
be set to the WD safety temperature setpoint. Actually the device
would display ER 2 the same as WD1.

Faults
The unit displays an error by an error number „Er X" (see error
table) in the display.
The heating will be powered down (exeption: WD -see table).
Following a fault in the heating circuit, the stirring function will
continue to operate at the speed set before the fault took place
(exception: WD - see table).
To reset a fault, switch off the unit at the main ON/OFF switch for
a few seconds. The unit should remain off long enough for the
temperature to settle. (The residual heat display must be OFF. See
the residual heat display).
When the unit is switched on again, the safety circuit test is run
within 20 seconds. After this the other test/monitoring functions
are enabled.

If the fault will not clear, you must run a RESET cycle (see
menu point „Settings")!
If a RESET cycle does not clear the fault, take the unit to your
technical service center.
