E) Meter Display Errors
LCD display gets out of sync with the
micro-controller and displays incorrect
information.
Power cycle the LCD. To power cycle
the meter without disconnecting the
load: first ensure
the rectifiers are on, disconnect
battery from PFM, then slide the
meter power to ‘Battery’ then back to
‘Rectifier’. This will briefly disconnect
power to the meter and allow a safe
power cycling and clear the display
error. Reconnect battery to PFM.
F) LVD Stability Issues After Settings
Change
LVD contactor cycles frequently after
making changes to the LVD
default settings
PFM-500 can be restored to factory
settings to aid in troubleshooting (see
section III page 12, item 4-4E and the
Digital Meter Programming Sequence
Fow Chart, page 11 for details).
