Viewing Device Variables and Diagnostics
Pressure B Sensor Failure—Indicates the pressure
sensor is reporting a pressure that is significantly
outside of the normal operating pressure, and has
failed.
Pressure A Sensor Failure—Indicates the pressure
sensor is reporting a pressure that is significantly
outside of the normal operating pressure, and has
failed.
Supply Sensor Failure—Indicates the pressure sensor
is reporting a pressure that is significantly outside of
the normal operating pressure, and has failed.
IOP Failure—Indicates the I/O processor has failed.
Drive Current Alert—Indicates that the Drive Current
has exceeded the Drive Current Alert Point for more
than the Drive Current Alert Time.
Simulate Jumper ON—Indicates the simulate jumper
is connected to the DVC6000f between the two AUX
terminals.
