General Pressure Depth Problems

The following tables contain general techniques for troubleshooting
pressure depth.

Warning: Contact your regional ADS representative for
further diagnosis before replacing a pressure depth sensor.

Problem

Pressure depth readings are consistently incorrect.

Possible

Causes

Coefficients may be incorrect.

Pressure dryer tube may not be functioning properly.

Possible

Solutions

Retrieve or enter the correct coefficients, and reactivate
the monitor.

Inspect color of desiccant in dry tube and replace the
dryer tube (if necessary).

Problem

Pressure depth readings are consistently off by up to 3
inches, but temperature readings are accurate.

Possible

Cause

Monitor may be configured with an incorrect pressure
sensor offset.

Possible

Solution

Re-measure pressure sensor physical offset and enter
correct value in Profile. Reactivate the monitor.

Enable Auto-Pressure Calibration feature in Profile to
calibrate the pressure sensor data to the ultrasonic data
during non-surcharge conditions.
