Channel Status Word Bits – Floating Point Mode
Any of the six Channel Status words, one for each channel, will display a
nonzero condition if that particular channel has faulted for the conditions
listed below. Some of these bits set bits in other Fault words.
When the High or Low Limit Alarm bits (bits 1 and 0) in any of the words are
set, the appropriate bit is set in the Channel Fault word.
When the Calibration Fault bit (bit 4) is set in any of the words, the Calibration
Fault bit (bit 11) is set in the Module Fault word. The table lists the conditions
that set each of the word bits.
Tag (Status
word)
Bit
Event that sets this tag
ChxNotaNumber
Bit 5
This bit is set when the output value received from the controller is
NotaNumber (the IEEE NAN value). The output channel will hold its last state.
ChxCalFault
Bit 4
This bit is set when an error occurred when calibrating. This bit also sets the
appropriate bit in the Channel Fault word.
ChxInHold
BIt 3
This bit is set when the output channel is currently holding. The bit resets
when the requested Run mode output value is within 0.1% of full-scale of the
current echo value.
ChxRampAlarm
Bit 2
This bit is set when the output channel’s requested rate of change would
exceed the configured maximum ramp rate requested parameter. It remains
set until the output reaches its target value and ramping stops. If the bit is
latched, it will remain set until it is unlatched.
ChxLLimitAlarm
Bit 1
This bit is set when the requested output value is beneath the configured low
limit value. It remains set until the requested output is above the low limit. If
the bit is latched, it will remain set until it is unlatched.
ChxHLimitAlarm
Bit 0
This bit is set when the requested output value is above the configured high
limit value. It remains set until the requested output is below the high limit. If
the bit is latched, it will remain set until it is unlatched.
IMPORTANT
The 1756-OF6CI and 1756-OF6VI modules do not use bits 6 or 7
in this mode.
