Troubleshooting
11.19.1
Obtaining the test point values
To obtain the test point values:
•
With the display, configure the required test points as display variables. See Section 8.9.5.
•
With ProLink II
a. Click
b. Observe or record the values displayed for
and
Drive Gain
•
With a DeviceNet tool, execute a Get for the attributes listed in Table 11-4.

Evaluating the test points
Use the following guidelines to evaluate the test points:
•
If the drive gain is erratic, negative, or saturated, refer to Section 11.19.3.
•
If the value for the left or right pickoff does not equal the appropriate value from Table 11-5,
based on the sensor flow tube frequency, refer to Section 11.19.4.
•
If the values for the left and right pickoffs equal the appropriate values from Table 11-5, based
on the sensor flow tube frequency, record your troubleshooting data and contact Micro Motion
customer service. See Section 11.3.
