As shown in TABLE 10-1, all output modes give two diagnostic values: Sonic
Diagnostic Flag and Gas Diagnostic Flag. The values contain a bit field with
each bit representing a monitored condition. When a certain condition is
detected, the corresponding bit is set. The value remains set until the event that
caused the condition is no longer present. TABLE 10-2 and TABLE 10-3
describe the bits in the sonic diagnostic flag and the gas diagnostic flag,
respectively.
