ALARM MESSAGES
NOTE: All alarm messages are followed by the phrase “Press ENT to quiet”. This will clear the alarm only. If the alarm
condition is still present, the alarm relay will pull in again.
MESSAGES
PRESS TOO LOW:
Gage pressure has gone below the Lo alarm value set in the variables.
PRESS TOO HI: Gage pressure has gone above the Hi alarm value set in the variables.
TEMP TOO LOW: Temperature has gone below the Lo alarm value set in the variables.
TEMP TOO HI: Temperature has gone above the Hi alarm value set in the variables.
INSUFFICIENT FLOW: Compensated flow has gone below the Lo alarm value set in the variables.
EXCESSIVE FLOW: Compensated flow has gone above the Hi alarm value set in the variables.
ANALOG OUT ERROR: 4-20mA output is broken or Compensated flow has exceeded the 20mA value set in the variables.
4-20Ma LOOP BROKEN: One of the 4-20mA input loops is broken.
OFF STEAM TABLES:
Temperature or pressure inputs have gone below or exceeded the range of the Flow Computer’s
internal steam tables.
WET STEAM CONDITION:Typically a delayed alarm. Alarm occurs if condition persists for longer than two minutes.
Temperature or pressure inputs have gone below the saturated steam range of the Flow Computer’s
internal steam tables.
Appendix v Troubleshooting Guide
OPERATOR FORGETS SECURITY LOCKOUT CODE
If the authorized programmer of the instrument forgets the security code and is locked out, follow this procedure:
A. Scroll through the menu to the Lock/Unlock menu. Press the key.
B. At the prompt, enter the code 00000 using the keypad.
C. The instrument will display a message “CALL IN CODE” and a 5-digit number.
D. Call the manufacturer and ask for the proper Customer Service Personnel.
E. Customer Service will ask for a 5 digit CALL IN CODE and will give back a 50digit RETURN CODE that was
generated by a computer.
F. Enter this 5 digit RETURN CODE using the keypad.
G. Five chances to enter the RETURN CODE are allowed, after which this procedure will have to be repeated.
H. Once the new 5 digit code has been successfully entered, it will unlock the Flow Computer.
I.
It is the programmer’s responsibility to reset the instrument with a new 5 digit lockout code.
J. If, at a later date, you are locked out of the instrument again, you will have to call and repeat this procedure. A
new CALL IN CODE will be generated by the instrument.
PULSE INPUTS ARE NOT COUNTING ON THE INSTRUMENT
A. Check the voltage of the pulses. They must be between 3-30V, and not less than 3V or negative.
B. Check pulse width. The pulse width of the signal must be consistent with the filter that you have selected. If this is
not the case, change the filter value.
INSTRUMENT NEEDS TO BE TOTALLY RE-INITIALIZED TO CLEAR OUT THE MEMORY
Power up the instrument and press the and the keys at the same time. This will totally re-initialize the
instrument. All parameters will be reset to their default values. The unit will require you to input the parameters that
have null values and select the various options available.
