Error messages
Error messages possible during initialization
The following symbols are displayed during initialization and when executing functions:
With successful execution of the function:
In the event of error messages, the associated text is displayed in addition to the symbol.
The following table lists the possible error messages.
SITRANS VP300 with or without HART
Operating Instructions, 03/2011, A5E01258666-03
Causes/Corrective actions
The error message disappears when the characteristic curve is set correctly according
to the description in parameter 2.4.2 Free characteristic curve (Page 86).
Parameter "Tight closing " must be activated so that the parameter "3.3.4 Lower
endstop" or "3.3.5 Upper endstop" set in the menu "3.3 Initialization values" (Page 92)
is executed.
Possible cause: Span between current limits is too small.
Make sure that the values entered in the parameters "2.4.1.6 Current 0%" and "2.4.1.7
Current 100%" (Page 85) are at least 4 mA apart.
Possible cause: Span between travel range limits is too narrow.
Make sure that the values entered in the parameters "2.1.5 Lower travel range limit"
(Page 73) and "2.1.6 Upper travel range limit" (Page 74) are at least 10% apart.
Digital setpoint via HART. Cause: The device has been switched via HART to a mode
in which the setpoint is received via HART and not determined from the input current.
