spring may have failed, or it was not sized properly for the application.
Friction or process load may have increased.

Possible Solutions: Repair or replace actuator spring. Check for high

friction. Reduce process load.

Pneumatic Leak

Definition: The positioner has detected a leak in the actuation

assembly.

Implications: Leakage from the actuator can cause decreased

responsiveness and excessive air/gas consumption.

Possible Solutions: Repair pneumatic leaks at the tubing junctions

and actuator seals. Check spool valve for excessive wear.

Air Supply Humid

Definition: The supply gas has high relative humidity which can lead to

condensation on electronic components and failure of electronic
functions.

Possible Solutions: Ensure supply gas is clean and dry. Check and

clean the regulator filter.

Air Supply Icing

Definition: The supply gas has high relative humidity and the

temperature is close to 0 °C (32 °F). Under these conditions ice may
form in the pilot relay causing diminished or total loss of position
control.

Possible Solutions: Ensure supply gas is clean and dry. Check and

clean the regulator filter.


Main Board Status

Main Board Fail

Definition: There has been an oscillator fault, position sensor ADC

failure, supply voltage error, reference voltage error, shunt voltage error,
or piezo voltage error.

Possible Solutions: This may be caused by transient conditions. If the

error persists, replace the main board.

Software Error

Definition: There has been a watch dog time out, stack overflow

warning, or CPU usage warning.

Possible Solutions: If the problem persists, perform a factory reset. If

it still persists, reprogram or replace the main board.
