Fault, cause and remedy
Faults or errors of the gas transmitter are displayed by the yellow status light and an analogue
output signal of < 1.2 mA (factory setting). Detailed error information can be read out with a PC
and the Dräger PolySoft software (see PC software online help) or with a HART
4-20 mA signal
