Possible cause
The transmitter has lost communi-
cation with the core processor.
There may be a problem with the
wiring or with either component.
This alert often occurs in conjunc-
tion with alerts A9 and A14.
Internal electronics failure.
This can indicate a loss of communi-
cation between the transmitter and
the display module.
ble with the programmed board
type.
The core processor or transmitter is
not receiving enough power.
This alert will not clear until you cy-
cle power to the meter.
A meter verification test is in pro-
gress, with outputs set to Fault.
Micro Motion Model 1700 Transmitters with Analog Outputs
Recommended actions
• Check the wiring between the sensor
and the transmitter.
• Check for noise in the wiring or in the
transmitter environment.
• Verify that internal wiring is secure and
that there are no internal electrical
problems.
• Check the status LED on the core pro-
cessor.
• Check the resistance across core pro-
cessor terminals.
• If the alert persists:
- Replace the core processor.
- If that does not solve the problem,
restore the original core processor
and replace the transmitter.
- If that does not solve the problem,
replace both the transmitter and
the core processor.
• Cycle power to the meter.
• Contact customer support.
• Cycle power to the meter.
• Replace the display module.
• Contact customer support.
• Contact customer support.
• Check the wiring between the transmit-
ter and the core processor, then cycle
power to the meter.
• Check the wiring of the transmitter,
then cycle power to the meter.
• Verify that the transmitter is receiving
sufficient power.
- If it is not, correct the problem and
cycle power to the meter.
- If it is, this suggests that the trans-
mitter has an internal power issue.
Replace the transmitter.
• Allow the procedure to complete.
