Fault Condition
Possible Causes
REAR BOARD
NOT DET
Mother Board not
detected on power up.
Warning only appears on serial I/O com port(s)
Front panel display will be frozen, blank or will not respond.
Massive failure of mother board.
Relay BOARD
WARN
The CPU cannot
communicate with the
Relay Board.
I
2
C buss failure
Failed relay board
Loose connectors/wiring
SAMPLE FLOW
WARN
Sample flow rate is <
500 cc/min or > 1000
cc/min.
Failed sample pump
Blocked sample inlet/gas line
Dirty particulate filter
Leak downstream of critical flow orifice
Failed flow sensor/circuitry
SAMPLE PRES
WARN
Sample Pressure is <10
in-Hg or
> 35 in-Hg
1
If sample pressure is < 10 in-hg:
o Blocked particulate filter
o Blocked sample inlet/gas line
o Failed pressure sensor/circuitry
If sample pressure is > 35 in-hg:
o Blocked vent line on pressurized sample/zero/span gas supply
o Bad pressure sensor/circuitry
SYSTEM RESET The computer has
rebooted.
This message occurs at power on.
If it is confirmed that power has not been interrupted:
Failed +5 VDC power,
Fatal error caused software to restart
Loose connector/wiring
UV LAMP
WARNING
The UV lamp intensity is
< 600mV or > 4995 mV
UV lamp is bad
Reference detector is bad
Motherboard analog sensor input circuitry has failed.
Fogged or damaged lenses/filters in UV light path
A/D converter circuitry failure
