The FCR Status channel reports the fault status of the active and standby modules. The value is bit-
packed as shown below, the least significant byte is used with the most significant 8-bits set to zero:

The ‘Primary Module is active’ channel is set to non-zero if the primary module is the current active 
module, i.e. the active module is in the chassis and slot numbers defined within the OEM parameters. 
The ‘Active Module is simulated’ channel is set to non-zero if the active module is being simulated, this 
will only be set if the module is not present or the simulation enable has been set within the module’s 
configuration in the system.ini file. 
3.2.11. Available MUX Channels
Valve test information is available through the use of a logical data multiplexer (or mux). The user 
requests a specific data item by writing an index value to the MXOUT signal (Rack 5). The module will 
respond by setting the MXIN value (Rack 4) to the same value as the MXOUT signal, and by providing 
the requested data item in MXDAT (Rack 4). 
Changes to MXOUT do not have an immediate effect. One or more application scans is required 
before MXIN and MXDAT will reflect the changes made to MXOUT.
