Appendix C Summary of Alarms
and their Causes
The measured ground fault current is greater than or equal to the Ground Fault Trip
setpoint.
ü
Check that the setpoint is appropriate for the length and type of cable.
ü
Check for wet or damaged heating cable, power connections, splices or tees.
ü
Test for correct ground fault measurement.
For single and dual-point Control Modules, the measured circuit voltage is less than
or equal to the Low Voltage Alarm setpoint.
ü
Check for voltage input failure by measuring the voltage at the input. On internal
switching modules, check the Heater Power In terminals; on external switching mod-
ules, check the Heater Voltage terminals.
ü
Check for breaker trip.
The temperature derived from the RTD resistance is outside the range of values for
Heater Control Temperature.
ü
Check for damaged RTD board mounted on the module, cable or connection if
the RTD BOARD function (msg. S3-14) is set to “On Board ”.
ü
Check for damaged RTD Sampler, Sampler’s address, communication over wire-
less RF Modem/RS485 cable if the RTD BOARD function is set to “RTD Sampler x”.
ü
Check for damaged RTD Transmitter board mounted on the module, cable or
connection if the RTD BOARD function (msg. S3-14) is set to “RTD Transmitter”.
ü
Test the RTD input.
ü
RTD Short Alarm can indicate RTD Board/RTD Sampler/RTD Transmitter failure.
ü
RTD Open Alarm can indicate that a spare heater circuit is enabled.
The phase current is greater than or equal to 0.1 A when the heater circuit is off.
ü
Check for switch failure.
ü
Test the switch input or coil voltage. When the heater circuit is off, the input or
coil voltage should be 0 Vdc. Otherwise the Module needs repair.
One of the following alarms occurred during the TraceCheck™ cycle. Refer to the
alarm details above for the individual alarm.
ü
LOW CURRENT ALARM
ü
HIGH CURRENT ALARM
ü
HIGH CURRENT TRIP
ü
GROUND FAULT ALARM
ü
GROUND FAULT TRIP
ü
SWITCH FAILURE ALARM
For the Group Interface Module, indicates that a Control Module does not respond.
ü
If module does not exist on the data highway remove from the Module List.
ü
Check for damaged RS-485 cable.
ü
Check for Failed Control Module.
A memory or CPU failure has occurred.
ü
If the alarm message occurs on the ML100 Dedicated Interface Module, the
Control Module needs repair.
ü
If the alarm occurs on the MR100 Group Interface Module, the Group Interface
Module needs repair.
Ground fault monitoring function did not detect the GF test current.
ü
Check ground fault current transformer wiring to terminals.
ü
Ground fault current transformer may be faulty.
