4.1.6 Input Fault Logging 
 
If inputs are wired for simultaneity monitoring, the following events are registered as faults 
and stored in EEPROM: 
• Simultaneity time limit is exceeded.
• Not all channels change state as required if input is cycled
• The reset switch is closed while not all channels of at least one input are in the
correct state for either “on” or “off”.
The faults can be cleared by opening and closing the circuits of all channels of one input 
simultaneously. If the faults are not cleared, the MSR310 indicates this on the next power 
up. The faults can even then be cleared by opening and closing the circuits of all 
channels of the faulty input simultaneously. 
 
 
 
 
4.1.7 Serial Communication Interface Connections 
 
The MSR310 is equipped with two RS232 serial data interfaces: one for bi-directional and 
one for uni-directional communication mode. The interface connections are illustrated 
below.

Serial data communication protocol details (uni-directional and bi-directional) are given in 
Chapter 9, at the end of this document.
