Troubleshooting

If any problem appears which cannot be solved with the help of this operating instruction,

contact our sales office and give a precise description of the problem. Specify the type,

the serial number and the firmware version of the transmitter.

The display does not work at all or fails regularly

Check the contrast setting of the transmitter or enter the HotCode

555000

to set the dis

play to medium contrast.
Check that the battery is inserted and charged. Connect the power supply unit. If the

power supply is OK, the transducers or an internal component of the transmitter are de

fective. The transducers and the transmitter have to be sent to FLEXIM for repair.

The message "SYSTEM ERROR" is displayed

Press key BRK to return to the main menu.
If this message is displayed repeatedly, write down the number displayed in the lower

line. Track down the situations when the error is displayed. Contact FLEXIM.

The transmitter does not react when key BRK is pressed during the measurement

The program code is activated. Press key C and enter the program code.

The backlight of the display does not work, but all other functions are available

Check whether the backlight can be switched on by pressing key I/O, see section 4.4.
The backlight is defective. This problem has no influence on other functions of the dis

play. Send the transmitter to FLEXIM for repair.

Date and time are wrong, the measured values are deleted when the transmitter is

switched off

The data backup battery has to be replaced if the date and the time are reset or wrong or

the measured values are deleted after the transmitter has been switched off and on.

Send the transmitter to FLEXIM.

An output does not work

Make sure that the outputs are configured correctly. Check the function of the output. If

the output is defective, contact FLEXIM.

Caution!

Touching hot or cold surfaces

This may result in injuries (e.g., thermal damages).
→ Observe the ambient conditions at the measuring point during installa

tion. Wear the required personal protective equipment. Observe the

applicable rules.
