5.2 Status bytes

Coding of the status byte on the PA output value

Status code

Descr. acc. to Profibus standard Probable causes in the VEGA sensor

0x00

bad – non-specific

- Flash-Update active

0x04

bad – configuration error

- Adjustment error
- Configuration error with PV-Scale

(PV-Span too small)

- Differences in meas. unit
- Error in the linearisation table

0x0c

bad – device failure

- Hardware error
- Converter error
- Leakage pulse error
- Trigger error

0x10

bad – sensor failure

- Meas. value error
- Temperature error

0x1f

bad – out of service - constant

- "Out of Service" mode switched on

0x44

uncertain – last unusable value

- Failsafe useable value (Failsafe-Mode =

"Last valid value" and already valid meas.
value since switching on)

0x48

uncertain – substitute set

- Simulation switched on
- Failsafe substitute value (Failsafe-Mode =

"Fsafe value")

0x4c

uncertain – initial value

- Failsafe substitute value (Failsafe-Mode =

"Last valid value" and no valid meas.
value since switching on)

0x51

uncertain – sensor conversion

- Sensor value < lower limit

not accurate – low limited

0x52

uncertain – sensor conversion

- Sensor value > upper limit

not accurate – high limited

0x80

good (non-cascade) - ok

- ok

0x84

good (non-cascade) – active

- Static revision (FB, TB) changed (active

block alarm

for 10 sec., after parameter was written
in static category)

0x89

good (non-cascade) – active

- Lo-Alarm

advisory alarm – low limited

0x8a

good (non-cascade) – active

- Hi-Alarm

advisory alarm – high limited

0x8d

good (non-cascade) – active

- Lo-Lo-Alarm

critical alarm – low limited

0x8c

good (non-cascade) – active

- Hi-Hi-Alarm

critical alarm – high limited

Note:
All 256 possible status byte values can also be generated by simulation. For this reason, the Failsafe-Mode
should be set to "Wrong calculated value", so that the simulated status will not be modified by the Failsafe cal-
culation.
