Diagnostics and troubleshooting
10.1 General errors
Error
Possible cause
Solution
Device does not respond
Supply voltage does not match the
specification on the nameplate
Apply correct voltage
The polarity of the supply voltage
is wrong
Correct the polarity
The cables do not contact the
terminals properly
Ensure electrical contact between the cable
and the terminal
HART communication does
not function
Communication resistor missing or
incorrectly installed
Install the communication resistor (250 Ω)
correctly
Commubox is connected
incorrectly
Connect Commubox correctly
The communication resistor of the
Commubox is switched on or off
Check the communication resistor and
connections
For details, see Technical Information
TI00404F
Device measures incorrectly Configuration error
• Check and correct the parameter
configuration
• Carry out mapping
Display values not plausible
(linearization)
SmartBlue and FieldCare/
DeviceCare active at the same time
Log off FieldCare/DeviceCare and disconnect
or
Log off SmartBlue and disconnect
(connection via SmartBlue has priority)
Linearized output value not
plausible
Linearization error
SmartBlue: Check linearization table
FieldCare/DeviceCare: Check linearization
table
Check the vessel selection in the
linearization module
RIA15 no display
The polarity of the supply voltage
is wrong
Correct the polarity
The cables do not contact the
terminals properly
Ensure electrical contact between the cable
and the terminal
RIA15 defective
Replace RIA15
RIA15 start sequence keeps
running through
Supply voltage too low
• Increase supply voltage
• Switch off backlight
10.2 Error - SmartBlue operation
Error
Possible cause
Solution
Device is not visible in
the live list
No Bluetooth
connection
Enable Bluetooth function on smartphone or tablet
Bluetooth function of sensor disabled, perform recovery sequence
Device is not visible in
the live list
The device is
already connected
with another
smartphone/
tablet
Only
one
point-to-point connection is established between a
sensor and a smartphone or tablet
