Test Relays
This menu provides a controlled contact closure for each
relay to test its integrity. A password is required.
Test 4–20 mA Loop
Once the desired output loop current value is entered on the
display, the Series 801 will drive the given loop current to an
external device for calibration purposes. A password is
required.

Provides further information for the factory personnel in trou-
bleshooting.
An eight digit code will be displayed by pressing ENT at the
Extended Errors prompt. By reading this code from right to
left, information on both probe circuits can be obtained. The
first four bits (starting at the right) are associated with probe
circuit 1, and the second set of four bits is associated with
probe circuit 2, as shown below.

All zeros will appear on a properly functioning Series 801. A
one (1) will appear when an error is detected.

BIT 1: A one (1) will appear if the Series 801 fails the inter-
nal oscillator test. The remote probe electronics may
be defective. Consult factory.
BIT 2: A one (1) will appear if the Series 801 fails the open
probe test. Ensure proper connection of the white
wire between terminal block TB1 and the probe
screw terminal in the probe housing. Consult factory
if unsuccessful.
BIT 3: A one (1) will appear in this position if the Series 801
fails the shorted probe test. Remove the white wire
from the probe screw and measure resistance
between probe screw and ground.
BIT 4: A one (1) will appear in this position if the signal
between the probe electronics and transmitter is out
of range. A direct “short” across the probe will also
trigger Bit 4. Ensure proper connection and polarity of
wiring between probe housing and transmitter.
Press ENT. Extended Errors will be displayed. Press the
DOWN arrow to display Previous Menu. Ent will display the
current menu, Diagnostics. Press the DOWN arrow to dis-
play LapTop.

and Laptop will be displayed. If the laptop is connected for
RS-232 and the baud rate is compatible as set in the I/O
Config, the unit will begin to download the start /end day
range. Please note: this is an updating 30 day format. It will
download the minimum, maximum (at times of occurrence),
and total flow data for selected days.
