Figure 7.4
Malfunction logic (repeated for each sensor)
The
MALFUNCTION
light is illumi-
nated when the internal diagnos-
tics of either of the two instru-
ments indicates a malfunction or
there is a communication timeout
to either of the instruments (Fig-
ure 7.4).
It should be noted that not all mal-
functions are critical malfunctions
which drop the instrument from
operation (see Section 7.3). For a
complete list of possible malfunc-
tions, see Section 6.2.
The
MALFUNCTION
light relects the
decision taken by this logic. How-
ever, as the
MALFUNCTION
light is
one of the resettable alarms, it
may be blinking even when the
malfunction itself is cleared if the
ALARM RESET
button has not been
pressed (see Section 7.5).
