    Operating Conditions • Turn ON the power supply to the heater either simultaneously with or before the power supply to the G3ZA. False detection will occur if the heater power supply is turned ON after the G3ZA power supply. • The actual current flowing in the heater may not be the same as the heater's rated current.

(2) The setting is not valid and communications timeout detection will not start until the G3ZA is reset or until the power supply is cycled. Operation will stop when a communications timeout is detected and the com- munications error bit in status, the ERROR indicator, and the alarm output will turn ON.
