Table 3 Troubleshooting the TEROS 10 (continued)
problem
possible Solution
Sensor reading too high
Check to make sure that the media was not packed excessively or
insufficiently during sensor installation. Higher density can cause
sensor reading to be elevated.
Ensure the calibration equation being used is appropriate for the
media type. There are significant differences between calibrations,
so be sure to use the one most suitable to the substrate, or consider
developing a substrate-specific calibration for the particular
medium.
Some substrates have an inherently high dielectric permittivity (soils
of volcanic origin or high titanium, for instance). If the substrate has a
dry dielectric permittivity above 6, a custom calibration may need to
be performed.
Cable or stereo plug
connector failure
If a stereo plug connector is damaged or needs to be replaced contact
for a replacement connector and splice kit.
If a cable is damaged follow these
guidelines for wire splicing and
