Fault (specific use of the abort
command)
Your equipment can go from any
state in the box to the stopping or
aborting state.
Type of transition Description
Command A command tells the equipment to start doing something or do something different. For example the
operator pushes the start button to start production and the stop button to shutdown.
PhaseManager uses these commands:
reset stop restart
start hold abort
Done Equipment goes to a waiting state when it's done with what it's doing. You don’t give the equipment a
command. Instead, you set up your code to signal when the equipment is done. The waiting state
shows that the equipment is done.
Fault A fault tells you that something out of the ordinary has happened. You set up your code to look for
faults and take action if it finds any. Suppose you want your equipment to shut down as fast as
possible if a certain fault happens. In that case, set up your code look for that fault and give the abort
command if it finds it.
