Expression attempted to divide by zero. An operation in the program running on the
terminal is dividing by zero. Check the expressions in your application,
to ensure that none are dividing by zero.
Expression contains an invalid tag value. An out-of-range or badly-formatted value at
the PLC. This is most frequently the result of
an invalid BCD value. Check that the PLC program is sending
valid values to the terminal.
Expression evaluated to an out-of-range value. An operation in the program running on the
terminal is assigning too large a value to the
local variable type. Check the expressions in your application,
and change the local variable’s type to one
that will accommodate the value.
Expression caused divide by zero. Expressions have been created that use
division, and the denominator is a tag. The
fault message is displayed if the expression
is displayed on the first screen when the
application starts up, or the expression is
assigned to alarms or global PLC I/O
controls. Clear the fault message.
Invalid Application Startup screen. Application file specifies a non-existent
screen number as the Application Startup
screen. Reprogram the application file and assign a
valid screen number as the Application
Startup screen.
Invalid decimal point position. The value at the PLC Controlled Decimal
Point Position tag address is not valid. The value at the PLC Controlled Decimal
Point Position must be between 0 and 16.
