Internal Diagnostics
(All diagnostic values with tolerances ±0.02 mA)
4.2.1
During Normal Operation:
1. Absence of Magnet Signal, Wire Break, or float outside active
range is Indicated as 3.8 mA
2. Selected Span beyond 4 mA Set Point is indicated as
3.9 mA
3. Selected Span beyond 20 mA Set Point is indicated as
20.1 mA
4.2.2
"Lost Float" Diagnostic:
When Float gets stuck beyond span or active ranges, or end
cap falls off and float slips away from probe, then outputs will
indicate as shown to the right.

Troubleshooting Tip
No Signal Received at controller
• Check that power is applied to controller
• Check wiring connection to probe
• Check process temperature [cannot exceed 230ºF (110ºC)]
Output is Under 4mA
• Be sure float is in place and not stuck.
• Be sure float retention clip is in place at base of probe
• Check automatic gain control (if output is 3.8mA)
Output appears erratic
• Be sure probe is mounted perpendicular with gravity
• Check float for free movement along probe
• Check automatic gain control
Output appears to be going
down, yet tank is filling
• Check configuration of 4mA & 20mA points
Output appears to be going up,
yet tank is emptying
• Check configuration of 4mA & 20mA points
