9.3 Rectify faults

The operator of the system is responsible for taking suitable meas-

ures to rectify faults.

The first measures are:

Evaluation of fault messages, for example via the display and

adjustment module

Checking the output signal

Treatment of measurement errors

Further comprehensive diagnostics options are available with a PC

with PACTware and the suitable DTM. In many cases, the reasons can

be determined in this way and faults rectified.

Connect a multimeter in the suitable measuring range according to

the wiring plan. The following table describes possible errors in the

current signal and helps to remove them:
