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.
