A reading of 0 VDC or a very low positive value indicates a short-circuit condition, typically caused by a crimped cable trace or a grounded terminal connection. Conversely, a reading that matches the full supply voltage (-24 VDC) indicates an open-circuit fault, pointing to a broken terminal line or a severed probe tip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEngineering \u0026amp; Installation Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoaxial Connector Insulation and Structural Moisture Guarding:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen joining the probe lead to the extension cable inside the machine bracket, the coaxial connection must be completely isolated from the machine frame using high-dielectric silicone sleeves.
