Ensure that the power supply wires are connected to the correct terminals.
Ensure that the power supply wires are making good contact, and are not clamped
to the wire insulation.
Inspect the voltage label inside the wiring compartment.
The voltage supplied to the transmitter should match the voltage specified on the
label.
Reapply power to the transmitter.
CAUTION!
If the transmitter is in a hazardous area, do not reapply power to the transmitter with
the housing cover removed. Reapplying power to the transmitter while the housing
cover is removed could cause an explosion.
Test the voltage at the terminals.
If there is no power, contact customer service.
If you have a 4-wire transmitter, check the wiring between the transmitter and the
core processor.
If you have a 9-wire transmitter, check the wiring between the transmitter and the
sensor junction box.
If you have a remote transmitter with remote core processor, check the wiring
between the transmitter and the core processor and the wiring between the core
processor and the sensor junction box.
Before opening the wiring compartments, disconnect the power source.
DANGER!
If the transmitter is in a hazardous area, wait five minutes after disconnecting the
power.
Verify that the transmitter is connected to the sensor according to the information
provided in your transmitter installation manual.
