6. Apply lubricant, silicone sealant to the O‐ring (key 36) and install the O‐ring over the 2‐5/8 inch threads of the
terminal box. Use of a tool is recommended to prevent cutting the O‐ring while installing it over the threads.
7. Apply lithium grease (key 63) to the 2‐5/8 inch threads on the terminal box to prevent seizing or galling when the
cap is installed.
8. Screw the cap (key 4) onto the terminal box.
9. Install a set screw (key 58) into the cap (key 4). Loosen the cap (not more than 1 turn) to align the set screw over
one of the recesses in the terminal box. Tighten the set screw (key 58).
Troubleshooting
If communication or output difficulties are experienced with the instrument, refer to the troubleshooting chart in
table 6‐3. Also see the DVC6200 SIS Technical Support Checklist on page 72.
Checking Voltage Available
WARNING
Personal injury or property damage caused by fire or explosion may occur if this test is attempted in an area which contains
a potentially explosive atmosphere or has been classified as hazardous.
To check the Voltage Available at the instrument, perform the following:
1. Connect the equipment in figure 2‐2 to the field wiring in place of the FIELDVUE instrument.
2. Set the control system to provide maximum output current.
3. Set the resistance of the 1 kilohm potentiometer shown in figure 2‐2 to zero.
4. Record the current shown on the milliammeter.
5. Adjust the resistance of the 1 kilohm potentiometer until the voltage read on the voltmeter is 10.0 volts.
6. Record the current shown on the milliammeter.
7. If the current recorded in step 6 is the same as that recorded in step 4 (± 0.08 mA), the voltage available is
adequate.
8. If the voltage available is inadequate, refer to Wiring Practices in the Installation section.
Restart Processor
This is a “soft” reset of the device. This procedure can only be performed while the instrument is out of service. A soft
reset will immediately put into effect changes that have been sent to the instrument. Also, if the device is configured
to shutdown on an alert, the soft reset will clear the shutdown.
