2 .4 .2 Colour codes

With each parameter and option, there are corresponding coloured dots that represent the ac-

cess and status of the particular selection.

General ID tree

Red Dot

Data is Read/Write and can be changed over Modbus.

Yellow Dot

Data is Read-Only and cannot be changed over Modbus

Please note that it might be possible to change the values via the screen

90% of the data will be Read Only, but items such as Serial Gas Compositions, Time/Date, MF

are commonly written over Modbus.

NOTE: Although the ID may be read/write, the security setting determines whether the ID indeed

can be written.

Alarm Tree

The alarm tree is built of all the registers that hold alarm data. Alarm registers are 32-bit inte-

gers, where each bit represents a different alarm.

Red Dot

Represents an accountable alarm visible on the alarm list.

Dark Blue Dot

Represents a non-accountable alarm visible on the alarm list.

Orange Dot

Represents a warning visible on the alarm list.

Light Blue Dot

Represents a status alarm, not visible on the alarm list.

Black/Grey Dot

Represents a hard- or software fault alarm visible on the alarm list.

An example of typical usage would be the General Alarm Register. This is a 32 bit register that

indicates up to 32 different alarms in the flow computer. This will contain Status Alarms, for ex-

ample, 1 bit will indicate if there is a Pressure alarm or not. If the Pressure Status bit is set the

user will know that there is a problem with the Pressure.

This should be sufficient information, however if it is not satisfactory, the user can look at the

Pressure alarm, this contains 32 different alarms relating to the Pressure measurement, these

would be Red Dots as they each can create an entry in the alarm list. By reading this register

the user can view exactly what is wrong with the Pressure measurement.

The Light Blue Dots are generally an OR of several other dots. By reading the General register

you can quickly see if the unit is healthy, more information can be provided by reading several

more registers associated with that parameter.
