8.4 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:
Error Cause Rectification
4 … 20 mA signal
not stable
– Fluctuations of
the measured
variable
– Set damping according to the
instrument via the display and
adjustment module or PACTware/
DTM

tions occur
