The indications showed by the instrument flashes, except the indications “AL1“ and
“AL2“ (they are alternated with the temperature the chamber probe is reading) and
the buzzer utters an intermittent beep.

REASONS
there is a corruption of
the configuration data
in the memory of the
instrument
• the kind of chamber
probe you have con-
nected is not right
• the chamber probe
plays up
• the connection in-
strument-chamber
probe is wrong
• the temperature the
chamber probe is
reading is outside
the limits allowed by
the working range
of the instrument
REMEDIES
turn OFF the power
supply of the instru-
ment: unless the alarm
disappears, you will
have to change the
instrument
• look at parameter
/0
• test the integrity of
the probe
• test connection in-
strument-probe
• test the tempera-
ture close to the
probe
EFFECTS
• the access to the
setting procedures
will not be allowed
• all outputs will be
turned OFF
• the top output will
be turned OFF
• the floor output will
be turned OFF
