8.1Trouble-shooting instructions
Always begin trouble-shooting with the following checklists if errors occur after commissioning or
during measuring operation. The questions guide you to the cause of the error and the appropriate
remedial action.
1) The modes have the following meaning: F: Fault, C: Device in service mode, M: Maintenanca required, S: Out of
specification, *: depends on mode (F or M). See also section 6.4.2 Supported HART
®
commands.
1)
If several errors are present, the error with the highest priority is output. Once this error is
eliminated, the next error is output! An offset of 1000 indicates that more than one error is
present.
Device behavior in event of sensor error
In the event of a warning or error, the "Caution" symbol appears on the display and the error code
is shown. If an error occurs, the bargraph also flashes on the display and only the error code is
displayed and not the measured value. (See also Section 5.2).
8.2.1Corrosion detection
Corrosion detection only for RTD 4-wire connection.
Sensor connection cable corrosion can lead to false measured value readings. Therefore our unit
offers the possibility to recognize any corrosion before the measured values are affected.
There are 2 different steps selectable dependent on the application requirements:
• off (warning output just before reaching the alarm set point. This allows for preventative
maintenance/trouble-shooting to be done.)
• on (no warning, immediate alarm)
The following table describes how the device behaves when the resistance changes in a sensor
connection line, depending on whether on or off is selected.

1)
ALARM
The sensor resistance can have an effect on the resistance data in the table. If all the sensor
connection line resistances are increased simultaneously, the values described in the table are
halved. In corrosion detection, it is assumed this is a slow process with a continuous increase in
resistance.
Pyromation, Inc.29
Trouble-shootingSeries 642
8.2.2Monitoring the supply voltage
If the necessary supply voltage is undershot, the analog output value drops approx. 3 s ≤ 3.6 mA.
Error code 19 appears on the display. Then the device attempts to output the normal analog output
value again. If the supply voltage remains too low, the analog output value drops again to ≤ 3.6 mA.
This prevents the device from constantly outputting an incorrect analog output value.

10.1The Callendar - van Dusen Method
It is a method to match sensor and transmitter to improve the accuracy of the measurement system.
According to IEC 60751, the non-linearity of the platinum thermometer can be expressed as (1):
in which C is only applicable when T < 0 °C.
The coefficients A, B, and C for a standard sensor are stated in IEC 60751. If a standard sensor is
not available or if a greater accuracy is required than can be obtained from the coefficients in the
standard, the coefficients can be measured individually for each sensor. This can be done e.g. by
determining the resistance value at a number of known temperatures and then determining the
coefficients A, B, and C by regression analysis.
However, an alternative method for determination of these coefficients exists. This method is based
on the measuring of 4 known temperatures:
•Measure R
•Measure R
•Measure R
•Measure R
Calculation of α
First the linear parameter α is determined as the normalized slope between 0 and 100 °C (2):
If this rough approximation is enough, the resistance at other temperatures can be calculated as (3):
and the temperature as a function of the resistance value as (4):
Calculation of δ
Callendar has established a better approximation by introducing a term of the second order, δ , into
the function. The calculation of δ is based on the disparity between the actual temperature, T
the temperature calculated in (4) (5):
at T0 = 0 °C (the freezing point of water)
0
at T
100
at Th = a high temperature (e.g. the freezing point of zink, 419.53 °C)
h
at Tl = a low temperature (e.g. the boiling point of oxygen, -182.96 °C)
l
= 100 °C (the boiling point of water)
100
, and
h
Pyromation, Inc.39
With the introduction of δ into the equation, the resistance value for positive temperatures can be
calculated with great accuracy (6):
At negative temperatures (6) will still give a small deviation. Van Dusen therefore introduced a term
of the fourth order, β , which is only applicable for T < 0 °C. The calculation of β is based on the
disparity between the actual temperature, t
only α and δ (7):
With the introduction of both Callendar's and van Dusen's constant, the resistance value can be
calculated correctly for the entire temperature range, as long as one remembers to set β = 0 for
T > 0 °C (8):
Conversion to A, B and C
Equation (8) is the necessary tool for accurate temperature determination. However, seeing that the
IEC 751 coefficients A, B and C are more widely used, it would be natural to convert to these
coefficients.
Equation (1) can be expanded to (9):
, and the temperature that would result from employing
l
and by simple coefficient comparison with equation (8) the following can be determined (10):
(11)
(12)
The device accepts the coefficients to be specified as α, β, δ and A, B, C.
Information on the coefficients can be requested from the sensor manufacturers in question.

10.2Polynomial RTD
With "Polynomial RTD", the sensor is defined by a polynomial (X4*x4+X3*x3+X2*x2+X1*x1+X0)
with 5 coefficients. The physical measuring range is 10 to 400 Ω.
The 5 coefficients of the polynomial are calculated using the PC configuration software TransComm
Light. There are two different ways of determining the polynomial:
• The sensor-matching-calibration
The deviation (compared to standard RTD) of the sensor or at the complete measuring point
(transmitter with connected sensor, Measured = ΔT /°C or mA) is measured at different
temperatures (sampling points). By using a "weight factor" it is possible to set special focus either
on the given points (the deviation on the rest of the curve can be quite high) or on the trend
compared to the reference linearization (The sampling points are only reference points of an e.g.
aged sensor). These sampling points lead to a new revised linearization, which is transferred to
the temperature transmitters.
• The customer specific linearization
The linearization is made by measured resistance or current values over the target temperature
range. These sampling points lead also to a new revised linearization, which is transferred to the
temperature transmitters.
10.2.1How to use with the PC configuration software TransComm
Light:
1.Select POLYNOM RTD in Choice-field "Sensor type".
2.Press button LINEARIZATION to open module SMC32.
3.Default setting is Sensor-matching-calibration which can be recognized by "ΔT/°C" in the
groupbox "Measured". Alternative choice is "Ohm" or "mA" for customer specific linearization.
4.Default reference RTD linearization is Pt100. Check "Type of Sensor" if another RTD is
required. With customer specific linearization it is not possible to select "Type of Sensor".
5."Weighting" default is 50%. As described above 100% means full focus on the accuracy at the
sampling points, 0% uses the sampling points as trend information for the complete curve.
6.The "sampling points" can be edited in the shown table, default points are the min and max
temperature of the reference element. These values can be modified to a reduced range.
7.To see the results of the new linearization use menu Calculate … Calculate Curve and/or
Calculate … Show Coefficients (Coefficients are shown in an extra form).
8.The red curve in the graph (scale on right) shows the deviation between calculated and
reference curve. This graph easily shows the effect of changing the "weighting".
9.When files exist, data can also be loaded (Data … Load). Files made with older versions (SW
< 2.0) do only supply sampling points, the extra information ("Measured", "Type of Sensor")
has to be edited after loading data.
10. Storing all data in files use Data … Save or Data … Save as....
11. For using this functionality in the transmitter please press OK (data will be taken over in the
PC configuration software TransComm Light) and start to transmit to the device.
