Diagnostic:
Display sensor diagnostic alarm condition. When the sensor is in
diagnostic alarm, it will show ALARM, the green LED (Diag.) will also stop
blinking, and the Streaming Current value will show “
---
“. Most likely cause for a
diagnostic alarm is that the motor in the
sensor is not turning. Check to ensure the
motor is turning. If the motor is turning,
ensure the blade of crank is passing cleanly
through the opto-switch. If the blade is
rubbing against the opto-switch, make an
adjustment by loosening the setscrew of the
crank and sliding it over so that the blade
lines up in the middle of the opto-switch. If the blade was rubbing, it will be
necessary to use compressed air to remove any debris (dust) that may be
blocking the optics of the opto-switch. Finally, check the interconnect wiring if no
other cause can be found for the diagnostic alarm. A loose connection or a
terminal that is screwed down on the insulation of the wire instead of the wire
itself can cause the diagnostic alarm to activate.
