Diagnostic Error Codes - Interpretation
Figure 41. Diagnostic Codes
X0, X1, or X2 - Continuously Displayed
X channel bandwidth, gain, or phase error. Fault may be in display, sensor,
or cable.
Check sensor cable/connector wiring for conductors XA and XB.
Exchange display and sensor with known good components.
X0 - Intermittently Displayed
This code will disappear and re-appear, randomly, and may also disappear
after the
CLEAR button
is pressed. It may be accompanied by the plotting
of a cluster of dots, a line of dots, a scattering of dots, or no dots at all.
Possible loose connections on cable/connector conductors XA and XB.
In most cases, this error code is the result of repetitive current noise
being inductively-coupled into the sensors X and Y loops, at a sufficiently
high rate and amplitude to cause interference with the test pulse.This causes
the test to fail intermittently. Since X0 is the first test in the series, it is the
one that shows up first in a noisy environment. Sometimes however, in
normal operation without the presence of interference, a high level of
storm activity may cause a momentary X0 error to appear. This an
acceptable condition, requiring no operator action.
