Problem

Possible Cause

Corrective Action

Efficiency reading incorrect

NET efficiency selected.

Ambient temperature probe
not plugged in to T2.

Incorrect fuel selected.

Select GROSS efficiency.
See section 5.3.

Plug ambient probe into T2.
See section 5.2.

Select the proper fuel for the
equipment being tested. See
section 4.1.

Readings are erratic when
working on oil fired equip-
ment.

Oil filter not installed or
installed incorrectly.

Make sure the optional oil fil-
ter (A773) is installed. See
Appendix D.

One or all of the following
parameters; NOx, Ratio, CO
air free, excess air, and effi-
ciency read and print dash-
es.

Measured values are such
that the calculated values of
these parameters are out of
range.

Redo combustion test. Since
these are calculated values,
the measure values must be
within certain levels for these
to display. If the measured
oxygen level is above 19.9%
these parameters won’t
read.

These parameters might not
display or be applicable in
some tests.

Pressure prints as “N/A” on
my combustion analysis print
out.

During combustion analysis
the pressure function is dis-
abled. The manometer fea-
ture is a separate function
and must be printed sepa-
rately.

Perform the combustion test
and then perform a pressure
test. Save each test in a dif-
ferent location and print
each test.

Battery will not charge or
hold a charge.

Defective charger or battery. Replace the charger or bat-

tery.

Send to TPI for service.

Beeping noise heard during
charging.

Defect in charging circuit or
shorted battery.

Disconnect from the charger
and contact TPI at 800-368-
5719.

Analyzer won’t turn off

Oxygen and/or carbon
monoxide levels outside lim-
its.

Allow the analyzer to purge
longer.

replacement or install new
sensor.*

Try manually initializing the
sensor. See Appendix G.

InIt
CO
Err

Carbon monoxide sensor
failed to initialize.

Flue probe connected to 714
prior to power up.

714 did not purge completely
from last sample.

Worn or defective carbon
monoxide sensor.

Disconnect probe and
restart.

Purge for 20 minutes and
restart.

Return to TPI for sensor
replacement or install new
sensor.*

Try manually initializing the
sensor. See Appendix G.

InIt
NO
Err

Nitric oxide sensor failed to
initialize.

Flue probe connected to 714
prior to power up.

714 did not purge completely
from last sample.

Worn or defective carbon
monoxide sensor.

Disconnect probe and
restart.

Purge for 20 minutes and
restart.

Return to TPI for sensor
replacement or install new
sensor.*

Try manually initializing the
sensor. See Appendix G.

Lo

bat

Low battery.

Battery needs to be charged. Charge or replace battery.

oFL

Overflow indication. The tem-
perature or pressure being
measured is outside the
maximum measurement
capability.

Temperature or pressure
being measured is too high
or low.

Remove temperature or
pressure source.
