7.1 Troubleshooting overview

This section contains information to help you identify the faults in devices and the recommended
actions to correct them. Troubleshooting is performed to determine the cause of the fault by
analyzing the device indications (such as device not visible on network or not able to write values
to parameters.)
9.1.1. Device status and faults
The transmitter constantly runs internal background diagnostics to monitor the functions and
status of the device operations. When errors and/or faults are detected, they are reported in the
status bits of certain block parameters, (for example, BLOCK_ERR). The other parameters can
be seen by viewing the status descriptions and/or a value, which may help to identify a fault.
Device status and operational faults are identified by viewing key parameter values or status and
then interpreting their meaning using the following tables.
ATTENTION
Additional diagnostics are available through supervisory and control
applications that monitor and control fieldbus networks. These diagnostics
and messages are dependent upon the capabilities of the application and the
control system that is used.
