Error Conditions

The DT9828 module reports overrun errors by sending an overrun event to the application
program. If this error condition occurs, the instrument stops acquiring and transferring data to
the host computer. To avoid this error, try one or more of the following:
• Reduce the sample rate
• Close any other applications that are running
• Run the program on a faster computer
Additionally, the following constants may be reported to the host:
• 99999.0 – SENSOR_IS_OPEN, described on
• 88888.0 – TEMP_OUT_OF_RANGE_HIGH, described on
• –88888.0 – TEMP_OUT_OF_RANGE_LOW, described on
An additional error will be reported if a ESD spike causes an analog input channel to stop
working. If the instrument is scanning when this occurs, scanning will stop and an error will
be reported. To resume scanning, you must restart the scan. If the channel is functional,
scanning will resume. If the channel is not functional, scanning will not resume and the error
will be reported once again; contact Customer Service, as described on
module to the factory.
