7.5 Maintenance events
Maintenance events
A maintenance event is generated every time a maintenance requirement is determined. The
MT LED lights up on the module.
Maintenance messages are assigned either to one input on a channel-specic basis (HART error)
or to inputs as a module message aecting all inputs.
Maintenance messages have no direct eect on the function of the module or the analog value
acquisition. Maintenance events of the HART communication do not aect the analog value
acquisition of the module.
Maintenance messages, their meaning and possible remedies
Maintenance
message
Error
code
Assignment Meaning / Cause Remedy
Error (000B) B
H
Module The F-module has detected an internal mal‐
function of the HART communication and
therefore shut down the HART communica‐
tion.
Possible cause:
Electromagnetic interference is too high.
• Eliminate the interference.
Removal and insertion of
the F-module or a POWER
OFF – POWER ON is then
required.
• If the error occurs again,
consider replacement.
Error (000C) C
H
Module The internal temperature of the F-module
leaves the permissible range. This condition
must be corrected within the repair time of
the module, otherwise a safety-related shut‐
down of the entire module occurs.
Possible causes:
• Ambient temperature is too high
• Operation of the F-module outside the
permissible specication
• External heating by adjacent modules
Operate the F-module within
the specied temperature
range. (see "Technical speci‐
cations" section)
After reducing the tempera‐
ture and returning to the speci‐
ed range, this maintenance
message is automatically reset.

ules and replace modules or
perform a rmware upgrade.
