Symptom 

Possible cause 

Possible solution 

No power 

Not powered up 

Turn on the ON/OFF switch, located in the access panel, behind the 
optical connectors. 

Main power 

Try another main outlet. 

Power supply 

Verify the power supply connection. If possible, try another power 
supply (with the same polarity), or test the voltage of the power 
supply. If the power supply is faulty, call your power supply supplier. 

One or more units not 
detected on the 
network 

Unique identification of 
each unit may be incorrectly 
entered 

Reconfigure the network addressing. 

 

The channel status LED turns red when there is something wrong with the channel. The error code 

appears in the display of the temperature channel in the measurement display mode.

Error 

Description 

Possible Cause 

Possible Solution 

Low 

Error 1 

Signal Too Low 

(out of range) 

Measured temperature is lower than 

the minimum permitted temperature. 

Ensure minimum sensor temperature is 

greater than -40 °C. Check the offset 

value in Nortech Client. 

High 

Error 2 

Signal Too High 

(out of range) 

Measured temperature is greater than 

the maximum permitted temperature. 

Ensure maximum sensor temperature is 

less than 225 °C. Check the offset value 

in Nortech Client. 

Error 

Error 3 

Excessive 

Back Reflection 

Excessive back reflection. The ratio of 

reference signal to reflected signal is 

too high. 

Clean connectors, check connectors for 

scratches, perform another reference. 

Error 

Error 4 

Unknown signal 

Unknown signal. 

Ensure sensor is operating within 

temperature specifications.

Error 

Error 6 

Signal Shape 

Not enough light, due to bad 

connections, dirty connections, weak 

sensor, weak light source. 

Ensure that all connections are clean. 

Ensure sensor is properly connected.
