10.3 Confirm system messages
In many applications, the analyzers run in 24/7 continuous operation and are not regularly
inspected on site. If an error message occurs during operation, e.g. due to a flow error, this
message is displayed on the M2/S2 screen (see on page 30 chapter 'Main display area' ).
In this case, the Info button lights up red and the message “Malfunction” flashes inside the
message field.
Tapping the Info button confirms that the message has been seen. After confirming the
“Malfunction“, the message turns into continuous light and disappears as soon as the
cause of the malfunction has been eliminated. If there is no confirmation and new fault
messages occur, they are only stored in the background and not displayed.
To inform the user, an information box can be activated which is displayed on the analyzer
after a defined number of unconfirmed messages has been reached. This number is cal-
culated as follows: 9 consecutive unconfirmed messages x number of available channels.
I.e. with a 4-channel multi-gas analyzer this information box only appears after 36 uncon-
firmed messages.
Tap on the “Please confirm” button in the information box to confirm the messages and
set the number of unconfirmed messages to zero (reset unconfirmed messages).
The display of the information box is activated in the system settings (see in chapter '8.3.11
M4/S2 - Settings menu/ parameters' on page 48) of the analyzer. The following settings
are possible:
„
0 = No information appears. The number of unconfirmed messages can be
displayed in the screen M1/S2 under “More Info”. The CE value indicates the
number of unconfirmed messages. The status output of the analyzer continues
working with and without confirmation.
„
1 = The information box appears and must be confirmed. The last malfunction
message received to activate the information box sets the status output of the
analyzer to “ Malfunction “. It remains at “ Malfunction “ until the information box
is confirmed. Regardless of whether the messages have already been cleared or
not.
„
2 = The information box appears and can be confirmed. The status output of the
analyzer continues to work with and without confirmation.
