Remove the film and verify the signal drops cleanly back to 4.0 mA. Troubleshooting Common Fault Codes Problem / Condition Probable Cause Corrective Action Beam Blocked / Obscured
Check power supply terminal voltages; re-verify alignment via HART; check system event log via PolySoft. Fluctuating mA around 4.0 mA
Warning: Avoid “free manual download” sites. They often host outdated versions (e.g., from 2015) that lack the latest HART 7 commands or Modbus register maps.
