7. Troubleshooting
This section provides solutions to common issues. For problems not listed here, contact Rittal technical support.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device does not power on. | No power supply; incorrect wiring; blown fuse. | Check power connections; verify wiring against diagram; check and replace fuse if necessary. |
| Display shows "Err" or abnormal reading. | Sensor not connected; faulty sensor; incorrect sensor type; wiring issue. | Ensure sensor is properly connected; test sensor; verify sensor compatibility; check sensor wiring. |
| Temperature reading is inaccurate. | Sensor calibration needed; environmental interference; sensor placement. | Perform calibration (if supported) or contact service; ensure proper sensor placement away from heat sources/drafts. |
| Control outputs not activating. | Incorrect setpoint configuration; wiring issue; output fault. | Verify setpoint and hysteresis settings; check output wiring; consult technical support. |
