    Default Issue with Expansionbox 2 and digital temp probe

    For the moment I use a P3.1T computer and an expansion box 2 at home. I have noticed that I now and than get an alarm from the digital temp probe. I have seen this before (and still see) with this combination and alarms - at one of my jobs we have two systems with this combination and get temp alarms and PABCOM alarms rather often.

    My alarm looks like this

    pH-value 1 : 8.01pH
    TEMPERATURE 2 : ***
    REDOX 1 : -22mV
    Temperature 3 : ***
    pH-value 2 : 8.34pH
    Redox 2 : -22mV
    Conduct.(S) 1 : 32.6
    Redox 3 : 408mV
    Alarm 000: Alarm: Temp 2 virt värme
    Alarm 001: Alarm: Temp 3 temp sump fläkt

    Temp 2 is a virtual copy of temp 3

    Graph could look like this

    However - I have only seen this with this type of configuration -> p3.x + expbox 2 + digital temp probe. When I run P4 with digital temp probe at home before - not any problem. When I run P3.x + expbox 1 (the old one) + expansion card digital temp + digital temp probe - at another of my jobs - no problem either

    There is a lot of electrical devices around all of these installations but - it seem that it only happen when Expansion Box 2 is involved together with P 3.x. I have not test with P4 + expansion box 2

    Any suggestions?

    Sincerely Lasse

    Please open the ExpansionBox configuration via GHL Control Center System page and disable the temp sensor. Then reconnect to the ProfiLux and enable the sensor again.
    Does this solve your problem?

    I´ll try that but I have this problem in two different installations - at home and in a fish farm. At the fish farm I have two different computers (3.1T) with digital temp probe at an exp box 2 - two different production lines. The same with both - plenty of alarms from the temp probe in exp box 2. At home - as you can see in post 1 - the same problem. I have set up a test system with 1 P4, one dos pump 2.1 and one expansion box 2. One digital probe in the P4 and one in the exp box 2. In one hour - have had one short alarm. Configure with sample time 1 minute and e-mail alarm to my e-post. The test will be for a while - see whats coming up. It looks like Faltaren have exactly the same problem. Although - we are swedes both of us - we are around 250 km apart from each other . I´ll test the way you say - coming back with result later on - but I think it is a more general fault - somehow connected with the communications in Exp box 2

    Yes it seems to be a problem with the PAB-communication but disabling and re-enabling the probe at the ExpansionBox configuration seems to solve the problem temporarily.
