Diagnostic interface/visualization software (as of April 2005)
An interface with a 6-pole Modular socket (RJ-12) is provided for systemdiagnostics and process visualization.
This interface allows a data connection to be set up to the ROPEX visualization software using the ROPEX com-
munication interface CI-USB-1.
Only a ROPEX comunication interface is allowed to be connected to the diagnostic interface. Con-
necting another device (e.g. a telephone cable) could result in malfunctions or damage to the con-
troller.
The ROPEX visualization software is described in a separate document.

System monitoring/alarm output
To increase operating safety and to avoid faulty heatsealing, this controller incorporates special hardware and
software features that facilitate fault diagnosis and selective error messages. Both the external wiring and the
internal system are monitored.
These features assist the operator in identifying the cause of abnormal operations.
A system fault is reported or differentiated by means of the following indications:
A.)
Red "ALARM" LED on the controller with
three states:
1.
Blinks fast (4Hz):
The "AUTOCAL" function should be executed (error codes 104…106, 211, 302, 303; up to March 2005: error
codes 8+9).
2.
Blinks slowly (1Hz):
The system configuration is incorrect and the zero calibration ("AUTOCAL" function) was unsuccessful
(
section 6.2 "Controller configuration" on page 17). It corresponds to error codes 110…114 (up to March
2005: error codes 10…12).
3.
Lit continuously:
A fault is preventing the controller from being started (error codes 101…103, 107, 108, 201…203, 307, 308,
801, 9xx; up to March 2005: error codes 1…7).
Also in instances 1 and 2 if the "START" signal is activated simultaneously.
As a rule, it refers to an external wiring fault.
B.)
Alarm output signal on the controller
(terminals 12+18):
