Embodiment Construction

[0041] The depictions in the figures are schematic and not to scale.

[0042] figure 1 A maintenance module 100 for a level indicator according to one embodiment of the invention is shown. The maintenance module 100 has a circular cross section and can be screwed or fitted to a level indicator, for example, for a display module of the PLICSCOM class from the company VEGA.

[0043] The maintenance module 100 comprises a housing 107 having a circular cross-section. Inside the housing, a processor 106 is provided, which is connected to the energy storage device 102 for supplying electrical power. The processor 106 is also connected to an external interface 105, such as a USB port, through which the processor 106 can similarly be supplied with power. It may be provided that the energy storage device 102 can be charged via the external interface 105 .

[0044]Furthermore, the processor is connected to the second interface 103 into which the data storage unit 104 can be inserted...

Abstract

A service module is for a level measuring device, which after being connected to the level measuring device can identify automatically the level measuring device, the operating program version used by the level measuring device and a status message generated by the level measuring device. Then the service module determines on the basis of the status message, what data is required from the level measuring device in order to identify a status of the level measuring device, which status is associated with the status message. This data is received on a data storage unit, which unit can be analysed in the laboratory. A service engineer is not required on site.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority from the filing date of European Patent Application No. 13167 507 filed 13 May 2013, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a level measurement technology. The invention relates in particular to a maintenance module for a fill-level measuring device, a fill-level measuring device with a maintenance module, an automated maintenance method for diagnosing states associated with status messages generated by the fill-level measuring device , a program element and a machine-readable medium. Background technique [0004] When a level measuring device - hereinafter also referred to as a "level indicator" - fails during level measurement, it is usually done by analyzing the recorded measurement data, analyzing measurement data captured by the level indicator in the future or Analysis of other data stored in the level indic...
