Faults
The Temperature Reading Is Incorrect
Check that the temperature sensor is correctly attached. (See Temperature Sensor Connections,
page 12)
Check that the temperature sensor type is correctly selected in the Channel Setup menu (See Page
17)
Where practical check the temperature sensor resistance against the table in Temperature Data,
page 31.
Current Output is Incorrect or Noisy
Check that the maximum load for the current loop has not been exceeded. (750).
Check that the terminals have been wired correctly.
Check that the cable screen is attached to Earth at one end and that the cable does not pass too
close to a power cable.
Check that he current output has been configured properly.
Relays Appear to Malfunction
Check that the unit is “On-Line” (Page 14)
Check that the set point configuration is correct (see Setpoints, Current Outputs and Digital Input
configuration guide)
If the relays are vibrating or “chattering” as they pass the set point, check the hysteresis setting and
increase if necessary.
Ensure that the relays are connected properly (see MXD73 Installation guide or MXD75 Installation
guide) and that the voltage/current levels are not exceeding
5A @ 30V DC or 5A @ 250V AC.
Check that the instrument input cables are not picking up excessive noise.
