Instruction Manual
ECHO HISTORY SETUP
– The Model R86 contains the
unique and powerful feature that allows waveforms to be
automatically captured based on Diagnostic Events, Time or
both. This menu contains those parameters that configure
that feature.
Eleven waveforms can be saved directly into the transmitter.
• Nine Troubleshooting Curves
• One Echo Rejection Curve
• One Reference Curve
TREND DATA
– A 15-minute trend of the PV can be
displayed on the LCD.
5.2 Diagnostic Parameters
Each detected diagnostic condition potentially affects the
status of one or more of the Transducer Block output para-
meters.
The Process Variable Status is described by three characteris-
tics—Quality, Sub-status and Limit.
The following table assigns the proposed values of these
characteristics, in order of decreasing priority, for each of
the diagnostic conditions and/or device configurations.
NOTES: 1. Only the highest priority status will be indicated for a given
process variable.
2. If a process variable is not listed for a given diagnostic con-
dition and/or device configuration, the status of that process
variable is not affected and will be shown as Good::Non-
specific: Not limited
