VEGAMET 342 • 4 … 20 mA

63731-EN-221107

occur or in case of incorrect parameter adjustment, a fault signal is 

triggered. In case of an instrument defect or line break/shortcircuit, a 

fault signal is also triggered.
The fault indication lights up in case of failure and the current output 

as well as the relays react according to the configured fault mode. If 

the fail safe relay was configured, it will deenergize. In addition, one 

of the following error messages is outputted on the display and the 

background lighting changes to colour acc. to NAMUR NE 107 (e.g. 

red in case of a fault, orange in case of a function check).
