5. Troubleshooting
This chapter describes the troubleshooting methods and error status.
If the temperature measurement data is not input, or if the proper digital value is not input, check the following
items:
• Version number of PLC
• Wiring
• Special devices
• Programs
• Error status
5.1 PLC Version Number Check
• Any versions (from Ver.2.20 (initial version) to the latest version) of the FX3U Series are compatible.
• Check the version number of the FX
3UC-32MT-LT. The version number should be 1.30 or later.
→ For a detailed description of the version number check method, refer to Section 1.3.
5.2 Wiring Check
Check the following items for wiring:
1. Power
PT-ADP needs driving power. Verify that the power supply line is properly connected. Also check that the
POWER indicator lamp of PT-ADP is on.
2. Platinum resistance thermometer sensor cable
Separate the cable of the platinum resistance thermometer from the other motive power cables or inductive
cables.
→ For a detailed description of wiring, refer to Chapter 3.
5.3 Special Device Check
Check whether the special devices for PT-ADP are correctly used:
1. Temperature measurement
Verify that the special device for the selected channel is correctly selected. This special device should be
selected depending on the connecting position and the channel.
2. Number of averaging time
Check that the set number of averaging time is within the specified range. The number of averaging time
should be set in the range from 1 to 4095. If the set number of averaging time is outside the specified range,
an error occurs.
3. Error status
Check that no error is detected on PT-ADP.
If an error is detected, check the details of the error, and then check the wiring and programs.
→ For a detailed description of special devices, refer to Chapter 4.
