Data Errors 
Errors may also occur even though the DT80's measurement system is operating normally – for example if an analog 
input is out of range or a connected sensor does not perform correctly. In some cases, the DT80 returns an error 
message (see "Reading" error category in the above table), but mostly there is no message returned. Instead, the DT80 
flags the logged and/or returned data value as invalid. 
Each logged reading has an associated "data state", which identifies whether that particular reading is valid or invalid. 
The following data states are possible:

Reference Error 
RefError  8e9 
Thermocouples and some bridges require a separate reference 
channel measurement as part of the measurement process. 
This error indicates that although this channel's raw 
measurement was OK, the associated reference channel 
measurement was not.
