NOTICE

The front panel and control panel can be wiped clean. In hazardous areas, only clean with a
moist cloth. We recommend water as cleaning agent, with a standard washing-up liquid

Maintenance request and fault message

The FIDAMAT 6 is able to detect functional irregularities. These appear as "Maintenance
request" or "Fault" in the status line of the measured-value display. At the same time, they
are recorded in the logbook and can be called up there. You acknowledge the message by
pressing the softkey next to the corresponding logbook entry. If you do not eliminate the
causes, the messages will appear again.
When a new message appears, the record stored in the logbook is shifted back one place in
the memory. There are a total of 32 memory location available. If all 32 memory locations
are already occupied when another record arrives (No. 33), the oldest one (No. 1) is
overwritten.
Logbook entries that must be acknowledged are marked with a "Q" under the number in the
No. column of the following lists.
You can lock the logbook or even clear the messages in it with function 60. This can be
especially helpful during test operation.
All messages can be turned off individually under function 87. In normal operation, we
recommend that this option not be used.
