An S-Analog Sensor object instance derives a reading from a physical analog sen-
sor. The reading is converted to the data type and units specified for the Value
attribute.

Using Counts and INT the following conversion has to be used:

Counts

=

[ log

10

(pressure) + k ] × 2000

where:

k

mbar

=

12.5

k

Torr

=

12.624903

k

Pa

=

10.5

This attribute specifies what value will be held in Value for states other than Exe-
cuting. The purpose of this mechanism is to allow other devices, who may be using
this Value to transition to (or remain in) a safe state in the event of this device
transitioning to a FAULT, IDLE, or ABORT state. The following values are defined:

Attribute Value

State

0

Zero

1

Full Scale

2

Hold Last Value

3

Use Safe Value

For Safe State set to Use Safe Value, this attribute holds the value to which the
Value attribute will be set for object instance states other than Executing.

16 Bits are used as Sensor faults. Sensor Alarm Byte 1 is mapped to the Device
Exception Detail Alarm 3, Sensor Alarm Byte 0 is mapped to the Device Exception
Detail Alarm 2.
