START (all NB)

User Level 1 or 2.

Starts the measurement of all connected Nivobobs. If more than 3 silos are defined, the measurements of the silos not displayed on the 

screen are started as well. 
While the measurement is running, a green arrow appears in each silo. 
In the top line the date and time of the last measurement is displayed.

Measurement start is not possible due to one of the following reasons:
Under "Sensor-settings" the selection"Sensor Nivobob" is not present  (see page17).
The "Modbus for silo" is set to "inactiv" (see page 17).
Display "Blocked Start":  

The Nivobob Measurement Start is set to "no" (see page 17).

Display "Blocked 24 - 26":   The bridge between terminal 24 - 26 at the Nivobob ist open. See Nivobob user manual.

Horn reset 

Reset of the full signal (horn). The button appears only, if the horn is activated.

Possible other messages:

"Offline":   

The "Modbus for silo" is set to "inactiv", thus the respective silo has no valid measurement (see page 17).

"Modbus": 

The Modbus network is not working. See items under commissioning (page 10).

Further diagnostic messages may appear. If so, the messages implement comments for reason and possible measures.
