Error

 

message

 

details:

The dbCAN-ID of the reporting amplifier is displayed. 

The dbCAN-ID consists of the subnetwork (in this case 0), followed by
the device ID (in this case 01). Instead of the dbCAN-ID a device name
can be displayed (max. 5 characters).

The entry behind the dbCAN-ID is either "Error xx" or "PWR/Comm.
loss". 

When "Error xx" is displayed and the message is in the top line, press
the Enter key [4] to request a detailed error description from the
amplifier.

"PWR/Comm. loss" indicates that communication with the amplifier is
not possible. Possible reasons are:

The amplifier is faulty or disconnected from the mains.

The network connection is interrupted.

periodic 0.5 s high and 4.5 s low signal. The "Reset Buzzer" function acts
as temporary acknowledgment to switch the Buzzer off. A new error
reactivates the Buzzer signal.

Support Hotline:

A support or service contact and telephone

number can be stored.

Battery State:

Reports the state of the PP15 battery. If the message

"> Change Battery" appears, call the Service department. An empty
battery results in loss of data.

Note:

This is a maintenance issue that must be included in the

service routine. Refer to the section "Changing the battery" in
the B&R manual.
