Fig. 25: Pictographs of the status messages
1 Failure - red
2 Out of specification - yellow
3 Function check - orange
4 Maintenance required - blue
Failure:
Due to a malfunction in the instrument, a fault message is
output.
This status message is always active. It cannot be deactivated by the
user.
Function check:
The instrument is being worked on, the measured
value is temporarily invalid (for example during simulation).
This status message is inactive by default.
Out of specification:
The measured value is unreliable because an
instrument specification was exceeded (e.g. electronics temperature).
This status message is inactive by default.
Maintenance required:
Due to external influences, the instrument
function is limited. The measurement is affected, but the measured
value is still valid. Plan in maintenance for the instrument because a
failure is expected in the near future (e.g. due to buildup).
This status message is inactive by default.
