15  Troubleshooting

15.1  Overview

4200 transmitter troubleshooting overview

This chapter describes guidelines and procedures for troubleshooting the flowmeter. The information in this
chapter will enable you to:

•

Categorize the problem

•

Determine whether you are able to correct the problem

•

Take corrective measures (if possible)

•

Contact the appropriate support agency

Note

All ProLink III procedures provided in this section assume that your computer is already connected to the
transmitter and you have established communication. All ProLink III procedures also assume that you are
complying with all applicable safety requirements. See 

Using ProLink III with the transmitter

 for more

information.

Note

All Communicator key sequences in this section assume that you are starting from the “Online” menu. See

Using a Field Communicator with the transmitter

 for more information.

15.2  Status alerts, causes, and recommendations

The following alerts apply to the 4200 2-wire transmitter. Numbered alerts are presented in numerical order,
followed by unnumbered alerts in alphabetical order.

15.2.1  [001] EEPROM Checksum Error (Core Processor) (CP)

Alert

Checksum Error

Cause

An uncorrectable checksum mismatch has been detected.

Recommended actions

1. Reboot or power-cycle the transmitter to see if the alert clears.
2. Contact customer service.
