Basic Diagnostics
The basic diagnostics menu contains all of the standard diagnostics and tests
that are available in the 8712 transmitter.
Self Test
The transmitter test initiates a series of diagnostic tests that are not performed
continuously during normal operation. It performs the following tests:
• Display Test
• RAM Test
• PROM Test
During the entire test, all outputs respond to flow signal. The test requires
about ten seconds to complete.
AO Loop Test
The AO Loop test allows you to drive the transmitter output to a desired
electrical current output on terminals 1 and 2. The user then has the ability to
independently measure the actual loop current against the desired level set
by the transmitter. On the LOI, the test will end after five minutes if the
transmitter is not returned to normal operation manually.
4 mA
Fix the analog loop current at 4 mA.
