6.3 A

LARM INFO

unsigned char

0…255

R

N

28

1/20

This parameter contains 8 bits with status information about some (alarm) events in the instrument.

Bit

low (0)

High (1)

0

no error An error occurred:

Alarm register 2 contains an error

1

no error A warning occurred:

Alarm register 1 contains a warning

2

no error Minimum alarm:

Sensor signal < minimum limit

3

no error Maximum alarm:

Sensor signal > maximum limit

4

no error Batch counter:

Reached its limit

5

no error This bit only:

Power-up alarm (probably power dip occurred)

Together wit bit 2 or bit 3:

Response alarm message

(setpoint-measure too much difference)

(bit 2 or bit 3 indicate if difference is positive or negative)

6

no error Master/slave alarm:

master output signal not received or slave factor out of

limits (> 100%)

7

no error Hardware alarm:

check hardware

6.4 A

LARM MODE

unsigned char

0…3

RW

N

118

97/3

Available alarm modes for device:

Bit

Description

0

Off

1

alarm on absolute limits

2

alarm on limits related to setpoint (response alarm)

3

alarm when instrument powers-up (e.g. after power-down)

Not all modes are available for all field busses. E.g. for DeviceNet only mode 0 and 1 are available.

6.5 A

LARM MAXIMUM LIMIT

unsigned int

0…32000

RW

N

116

97/1

Maximum limit for sensor signal to trigger alarm situation (after delay time).

Minimum limit ≤ Maximum limit ≤ 100%

6.6 A

LARM MINIMUM LIMIT

unsigned int

0…32000

RW

N

117

97/2

Minimum limit for sensor signal to trigger alarm situation (after delay time).

0% ≤ Minimum limit ≤ Maximum limit

6.7 A

LARM SETPOINT MODE

unsigned char

0…1

RW

N

120

97/5

Available alarm setpoint modes for device:

Value Description

0

no setpoint change at alarm

1

new/safe setpoint at alarm enabled (set at alarm new setpoint)

6.8 A

LARM NEW SETPOINT

unsigned int

0…32000

RW

N

121

97/6

New/safe setpoint during alarm situation until reset.
