TROUBLESHOOTING 

PROBLEM 

 

  SOLUTION 

Display shows 

FULL

Level  of  liquid  is  above  the 

FILL-H

  setting:    Check  the 

FILL-H

  setting, 

making sure the 

FILL-H

 setting is high enough so the level of liquid is below 

the 

FILL-H

 setting.  The 

Fill-H

 setting is the distance from the bottom of the 

tank to the Full level of liquid. 

Display shows 

EMPTY

Level of liquid is beyond the 

HEIGHT

 setting:  Check the 

HEIGHT

 setting, 

making  sure  the 

HEIGHT

  setting  is  low  enough  so  the  level  of  liquid  is 

above the 

HEIGHT

 setting. 

Display shows 

WARMUP

Typically  occurs  when  power  is  being  applied  to  transmitter.    Indicates  a 
weak  power  supply,  bad  wire  connections  or  the  sensor  is  out  of  the 
operational range.  

Display shows 

LOST

Sensor is in a Fail-Safe state.  The return sound pulses are not reaching the 
transducer.  First, cycle power off and on, waiting 5 seconds between the off 
and on states.  If problem persists, check the installation fitting against the 
Installation instructions in the manual. 

Display is opposite of the 
measured value: 

Check  the 

DISPLAY

  setting.   

AIR

  mode  indicates  the  distance  from  the 

liquid to the sensor.  

LIQUID

 mode indicates the height of liquid in the tank.  

Change the 

DISPLAY

 mode from 

AIR

 to 

LIQUID

 or vice versa to correct. 

Transmitter indicates a 
current of 0 mA: 

Check the wiring for an open circuit.  An open circuit is the most common 
issue with a 0 mA signal. 

Transmitter jumps to a current 
reading between 19 and 20 
mA: 

Check  the  installation  of  the  transmitter.    Bad  installation  fittings  will  cause 
false  signals  near  the  top  of  the  tank,  which  typically  translates  to  a  signal 
between 19 and 20 mA.  Also look for interference just below the transmitter.  
If the transmitter is installed in a metal fitting, switch to a plastic fitting. 

Transmitter indicates a 
current over 23 mA: 

Immediately  check  the  wiring  for  a  short  circuit.    The  EchoPod

®

  is  current 

limited to 22 mA.  Anything above 23 mA indicates a short circuit. 

No unit detected error 1 

Both errors can occur when the Display is still plugged in when connecting 
to WebCal.  Remove the display from its plug and try again. 

Data page read error 2 
Data page read error X (X is 
any number greater than 2) 

Make  sure  display  is  removed.    If  issue  persists,  contact  a  Flowline 
representative. 

-1 No device is attached to 
the USB Fob, or it is attached 
incorrectly. Please correct 
and try again. 

1. Check  the  wires  connected  to  the  USB  Fob  as  well  as  to  the  EchoPod 

terminals.   

2. Make sure the cable length between the sensor and the computer is less 

than 15’ of total cable. 

3.  Make sure the display was removed from its plug. 
4. If  this  persists,  reboot  computer  in  SAFE  mode  and  re-install  the 

WebCal

®

 installer program. 

-2 Program to loader error 
open wires 

Check  the  wires  connected  to  the  USB  Fob  as  well  as  to  the  EchoPod 
terminals.
