There is a communication problem,
check the
• power and SFC connections - Is the
polarity correct; red to positive and
black to negative?
• loop resistance - Is there a minimum
of 250 ohms resistance between the
SFC and the power supply?
• power supply - Is power applied, is
there greater than 11 volts at the
transmitter, and are you within the
operating area on the curve in Figure
13?
Correct any wiring, resistance, or
power supply problems, and try
communicating again - Press [
ID]
key.
If you are still not getting the
correct display, note error
messages and refer to
Troubleshooting section in the
transmitter’s User’s Manual 34-ST-
25-14 for probable cause.
