System error messages
Serious system errors are
always
recognized by the instrument as "Fault messages", and are
indicated on the display with a lightning flash (
$
). Fault messages immediately affect operation.
Simulations and positive zero return, on the other hand, are classed and displayed as notice
messages.
"
Caution!
In the event of a serious fault, a flowmeter might have to be returned to the manufacturer for repair.
Important procedures must be carried out before you return a flowmeter to Hauser.
Always enclose a duly completed "Declaration of contamination" form. You will find a preprinted
blank of this form at the back of this manual.

Displaying the device status on PROFIBUS
Display in the operating program (acyclic data transmission)
The device status can be queried using an operating program (e.g. FieldCare):
Function block SUPERVISION
→
SYSTEM
→
OPERATION

ACTUAL SYSTEM CONDITION
Display in the PROFIBUS master system (cyclic data transmission)
If the AI or TOTAL modules are configured for cyclic data transmission, the device status is coded
in accordance with PROFIBUS Profile Specification 3.0 and transmitted with the measured value to
the PROFIBUS master by means of the quality byte (byte 5). The quality byte is split into the "quality
status", "quality substatus" and "limits" segments.

Structure of the quality byte
The content of the quality byte depends on the failsafe mode error behavior configured in the
corresponding Analog Input function block. Depending on which failsafe mode has been set in the
FAILSAFE_TYPE function, the following status information is transmitted to the PROFIBUS master
via the quality byte:
