Table 8 Rack 2: STATE Output bit descriptions
The input channel has a value 7 (Unknown) when:
1. The input channel cannot be correctly measured by two or more slices of the TMR input
module.
2. The TMR Processor detects a 2-oo-3 channel discrepancy between the three slices of the
TMR input module.
3. The module is simulated (not installed or the TMR Processor cannot communicate with 2-oo-
3 slices of the module).
3.2.3. Rack 3: AI
The AI board returns the field loop voltage at the input.
Channel Description
1 Field input channel 1 voltage
2 Field input channel 2 voltage
40 Field input channel 40 voltage
Table 9 Rack 3: Channel Field Voltage
The voltage is the median value taken from the triplicated module. The voltage level is reported as an
integer, with the units being
1 /
128
V. This may be used directly, scaled arithmetically or scaled using the
IEC1131 TOOLSET conversion tables.
When used directly the value may be considered as a signed, fixed-point binary value, i.e.:

Table 10 Rack 3: Channel Field Voltage bit definitions
To scale the value arithmetically, simply divide the input value by 128 to return the voltage as either a
REAL or INTEGER as required.
