Instruction 3015-4149 

 

SECTION 11 

Working with the Fault Screen 

From the System Screen press the button adjacent to FAULTS. This takes you to the Fault Screen. The 
information displayed on this screen is broken onto two categories – CRITICAL FAULTS and NON 
CRITICAL FAULTS. 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Critical Faults 

 

NO FLOW ON ZONE

 – Go to the 

System Screen

 and press the ZONES key. The zone screen will 

display a “NO FLOW” message in each individual zone affected. Check for a blockage in the air 
sample line or at the line end filter. Once the blockage has been cleared, the HGM300 will return to 
normal operation after the zone has been sampled.

 NOTE:

 

This can take some several minutes since 

it is dependent upon how many zones there are and their lengths.

 The HGM300 will clear the fault the 

next time it polls the effected zone and the RDM800 will return to normal operation the next time that it 
polls the HGM300. 

 

NO FLOW ON PURGE

 – Check the purge line for a blockage. Verify that the length of the purge line 

and exhaust line do not exceed 300 feet in length. 

 

NO FLOW DETECTED

 – Check for proper pump operation. Check the water trap – drain if necessary. 

 

CLIPPING FAULT

 – The detector voltage may be out of tolerance. Check the 

Diagnostic Screen

 for 

the DET voltage, AVE voltage, and ZERO voltage. Call the factory with this information for further 
instructions. 

 

REZERO VOLT TOL

 – The detector output voltage is out of tolerance. Check the 

Diagnostic Screen

 

for the DET voltage, AVE voltage, and ZERO voltage. Call the factory with this information for further 
instructions. 

 

TRIGGER FAULT

 – No trigger from IR source pulser. Contact factory with all information from the 

Diagnostic Screen

 for further instructions. 

 

Non Critical Faults 

 

BOX TEMP FAULT

 – Enclosure’s internal temperature is outside normal range (or IR sensor has 

failed). Check the installation to verify that the monitor is not being subjected to extreme temperatures. 
Verify that the ventilation holes are not obstructed. Check the 

Diagnostic Screen

 for the ZERO 

temperature, BNCH temperature, and BOX temperature. Call the factory with this information for 
further instructions. 

 

BENCH TEMP FAULT

 – Optical bench is outside of normal operating range (or sensor has failed). 

Check the installation to verify that the monitor is not being subjected to extreme temperatures. Check 
the 

Diagnostic Screen

 for the ZERO temperature, BNCH temperature and BOX temperature. Call the 

factory with this information for further instructions.
