OF
SENSOR BOARD
Compensated temperature reading of
sensor circuit board was outside the -55 °C
(-67 °F) to +125 °C (+257 °F) for five reads in
a row
Environment
Ambient temperature exceeded operating
temperature range
Take any action to ensure
temperature does not exceed
normal temperature range.
Return the unit if it fails

Non Volatile Memory checksum error of
sensor circuit board
Permanent corruption of the content in
non-volatile memory occurred
Remove power to the device for two
minutes and restart the device
If the failure persists, replace the
device
NVM M
ODULE

ITE
Non Volatile Memory error of main circuit
board module if write to FRAM failed or if
data repairing in FRAM failed
A problem occurred when attempting to
write to the non-volatile memory
Clear the condition using ValVue
software or HART host
If the failure persists, replace the
device

OR
RAM checksum error
A corruption of the content in non-volatile
memory occurred
FLASH
CHECKSUM
ERR
OR
Flash checksum error
The firmware checksum was invalid due
to data corruption
Remove power to the device for 2
minutes and restart the device
If the failure persists, replace the
device

ERR
OR
A RTOS task overran itself
The micro-controller failed an operation
STACK ERR
OR
Stack error.
A valid hidden record (in RAM) existing
upon reset indicating that a stack
overflow has occurred, as detected by the
task switching code
A problem with the memory stack
occurred
Clear the condition using ValVue

IRQ FAULT
Valid hidden record (in FRAM) existing
upon reset that indicates that an illegal
interrupt occurred
An illegal circuit board interrupt occurred
Clear the condition using ValVue
