UM344-2 CALIBRATION AND MAINTENANCE
September 1995
TABLE 6.2 Message - No Transmitter Found, Continued
Possible Cause: Loop Power
Supply Failure
Check power supply output voltage for installed network resistance:
17 Vdc minimum at 250Ω
42 Vdc maximum at 1100Ω
Check power supply for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker
Possible Cause: Transmitter
Electronics Module Failure
Replace Electronics Module. Refer to Section 6.5.2.
TABLE 6.3 Message - Communication Error
This message results when, after having successfully established communications with a transmitter, an
error flag is detected in a received message and the message is not accepted. Error types are: Vertical
Parity Error, Overrun Error, Framing Error, Longitudinal Parity Error, and Buffer Overflow.
POSSIBLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
Possible Cause: Noise on Loop
Wires
Press RETRY (F3) at least 3 times, waiting at least 1 minute between retries. If
not successful, continue troubleshooting
Loop Wiring Failure Check for 12 Vdc minimum across SIGNAL +/- terminals in transmitter terminal
compartment.
Check polarity of loop wiring.
Check that loop resistance is between 250Ω and 1100Ω to support HART
communications.
Check for loose or broken loop wiring at power supply terminals, Supply
Barriers (if used), junction boxes, and transmitter terminal compartment.
Check for disconnected or broken Current Sense Resistor.
Check for short between cable shield and SIGNAL + loop wire.
Check for accumulation of moisture in transmitter terminal compartment.
Check for the proper type and length of loop cable and for electrical
interference between the loop cable and any adjacent cables in a cable tray or
conduit.
Loop Power Supply Failure Check power supply output voltage: 17 Vdc minimum, 42 Vdc maximum.
Check power supply for blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker.
Transmitter Electronics Failure Replace Electronics Module. Refer to Section 6.5.2.
