the positive wire goes to the + terminal.


If the voltage and polarity have been incorrectly

applied then the fuse may have blown. Note if
the fuse has blown the instrument will need to
be returned to Ion Science Ltd.

Green LED flashes
continuously. *

Insufficient power unit keeps
on resetting

Ensure that there are 15 V across -+ power
terminals at the unit.
* Note the green LED will go off for 2-3 seconds

when the pump starts.

terminals at the unit.
Check that positive wire goes to the + terminal.

4-20 mA = 3.5mA

Unit has self diagnosed a

fault with given
measurement. 4-20mA 1=

flux measurement ,
4-20mA 2 = pipe
temperature measurement

Download data to confirm fault and follow fault

diagnostics matrix over leaf.

RS232 connection fails Communication parameters

incorrectly set.
Incorrect modem cable.

Check red or green LED is lit
