Fault Alarm
The module has individual channel fault alarms for a broken or
detached wire. In any mode, if a broken/detached lead is detected,
the data value is forced to maximum. Once the alarm is issued, it
remains active as long as the input signal is faulted.
In mV mode, for input levels above 210mV, this bit is set.
In RTD mode, an open input will set this bit.
Range: 0 = normal,1 = wire off, excessive input fault detected.
Default = 0.
