Systematic Malfunction Analysis

The sources of malfunctions occurring in CAN bus systems operating with several
bus-based stations must be analysed systematically since faulty components or
incorrect settings can give rise to negative interactions with intact bus devices in the
CAN bus system. These unwanted interactions can cause error messages in fully
functional bus devices, which will make fault detection even more difficult.

We recommend the following systematic fault finding procedure:

System Malfunctions

– continued –

Step 1 (Start)

Detach terminal strips
in all sensing units of
bus devices.

Level electrode
Conductivity electrode
Pressure sensor
Temperature sensor

Check

Use fault-finding
list to correct
fault(s).

Final test:
have all faults
been eliminated?

Step 2

Plug in terminal strips
of the sensing unit
of one system, e. g.
NRS ...
and
NRG ...

System
Malfunction

Use fault-finding list
to identify the
fault(s).

Cut off power supply
to the equipment.

Step 3

Apply mains voltage
to bus devices
of the system, e. g.
NRS ...
and
NRG ...

System O.K.

Detach terminal
strips between
bus devices
of the sytem e. g.
NRS ...
and
NRG ...
