Extended Error Information Field

Check the extended error information field when a non-zero value is
present in the module error field. Depending upon the value in the
module error field, the extended error information field can contain
error codes that are module-specific or common to all 1769 analog
modules.

Hardware Errors

General or module-specific hardware errors are indicated by module
error code 001. See Table 4.3 Extended Error Codes on page 4-6.

Configuration Errors

If you set the fields in the configuration file to invalid or unsupported
values, the module generates a critical error.

Table 4.3 Extended Error Codes on page 4-6 lists the possible
module-specific configuration error codes defined for the modules.
