Error Displays (Troubleshooting)
When an error occurs, the No. 1 display or No. 2 display shows the error code. 
Take necessary measure according to the error code, referring the following table.
Display Name Meaning Action Operation
s.err
Input error
The input value exceeded the control 
range.*
The input type is not set correctly.
The sensor is disconnected or short-
circuited.
The sensor is not wired correctly.
The sensor is not wired.
*  Control Range
Temperature resistance 
thermometer or thermocouple input: 
SP Lower Limit - 20°C to SP Upper 
Limit + 20°C 
(SP Lower Limit - 40°F to SP Upper 
Limit + 40°F)
ESIB input: 
Same as specified input range.
Analog input: 
Scaling range -5% to 105%
Check the wiring for input to be sure 
it is wired correctly, not broken, and 
not shorted. Also check the input 
type.
If there are no problems in the wiring 
or input type settings, cycle the 
power supply.
If the display remains the same, 
replace the Digital Temperature 
Controller.
If the display is restored to normal, 
then the probable cause is external 
noise affecting the control system. 
Check for external noise.
Note: For a temperature resistance 
thermometer, the input is 
considered disconnected if 
the A, B, or B’ line is broken.
After the error occurs and it is 
displayed, the alarm output will 
operate as if the upper limit was 
exceeded.
It will also operate as if transfer 
output exceeded the upper limit.
If an input error is assigned to a 
control output or auxiliary output, the 
output will turn ON when the input 
error occurs.
The error message will appear in the 
display for the PV.
Note: 1. The heating and cooling 
control outputs will turn 
OFF.
2. When the manual MV, MV 
at stop, MV at reset, or MV 
at error is set, the control 
output is determined by the 
set value.
[[[[
Display 
range 
exceeded
Below -1,999
This is not an error. It 
is displayed when the 
control range is wider 
than the display 
range and the PV 
exceeds the display 
range. The PV is 
displayed for the 
range that is given on 
the left (the number 
without the decimal 
point).
-
Control continues and operation is 
normal.
The value will appear in the display 
for the PV.
Refer to the E5@C Digital 
Temperature Controllers User’s 
Manual (Cat. No. H174) or the 
E5@C-T Digital Temperature 
Controllers Programmable Type 
User’s Manual (Cat. No. H185) for 
information on the 
controllable range.

e333
A/D 
converter 
error
There is an error in the internal 
circuits.
After checking the input error, turn 
the power OFF then back ON again.
If the display remains the same, the 
controller must be repaired. 
If the display is restored to normal, 
then a probable cause can be 
external noise affecting the control 
system. Check for external noise.
The control outputs, auxiliary 
outputs, and transfer outputs turn 
OFF. (A current output will be approx. 
0 mA and a linear voltage output will 
be approx. 0V.)
e111
Memory 
error
There is an error in the internal 
memory operation.
First, cycle the power supply.
If the display remains the same, the 
controller must be repaired. 
If the display is restored to normal, 
then a probable cause can be 
external noise affecting the control 
system. Check for external noise.
The control outputs, auxiliary 
outputs, and transfer outputs turn 
OFF. (A current output will be approx. 
0 mA and a linear voltage output will 
be approx. 0V.)

Overcurrent
This error is displayed when the peak 
current exceeds 55.0 A.
-
Control continues and operation is 
normal.
The error message will appear for the 
following displays.
Heater Current Value 1 Monitor
Heater Current Value 2 Monitor
Leakage Current Value 1 Monitor
Leakage Current Value 2 Monitor

HB or HS 
alarm
If there is a HB or HS alarm, the No. 
1 display will flash in the relevant 
setting level.
-
The No. 1 display for the following 
parameter flashes in Operation Level 
or Adjustment Level.
Heater Current Value 1 Monitor
Heater Current Value 2 Monitor
Leakage Current Value 1 Monitor
Leakage Current Value 2 Monitor
However, control continues and 
operation is normal.

Potentiometer 
Input Error 
(Position-
proportional 
Models Only)
"----" will be displayed for the Valve 
Opening Monitor parameter if any of 
the following error occurs.
• Motor calibration has not been 
performed.
• The wiring of the potentiometer is 
incorrect or broken.
• The potentiometer input value is 
incorrect (e.g., the input is out of 
range or the potentiometer has 
failed).
Check for the above errors.
Close control: The control output is 
OFF or the value that is set for the 
MV at PV Error parameter is output.
Floating control: Operation will be 
normal.
