Module Tag Definitions   Appendix B
Input Tags
Table 84 describes the 5069-OB16F module input tags.
Table 84 - 5069-OB16F Module Input Tags
 Name Size Definition Valid Values
RunMode BOOL Channel’s operating state • 0 = Idle
• 1 = Run Mode
ConnectionFaulted BOOL Indicates if a connection is running.
The module sets this tag to 0 when connected. If the 
module is not connected, it changes the tag to 1.
• 0 = Connection running
• 1 = Connection not running
DiagnosticActive BOOL Indicates if any diagnostics are active or if the prognostics 
threshold is reached.
• 0 = No diagnostics active
• 1 = One or more diagnostics are active or the 
prognostics threshold is reached
Uncertain BOOL Indicates if the module is operating outside its designed 
operating range of if data is under manual or override 
control.
• 0 = Good
• 1 = Uncertain
DiagnosticSequenceCount SINT Increments for each time a distinct diagnostic condition is 
detected, and when a distinct diagnostic condition 
transitions from detected to not detected. 
Set to zero by product reset or power cycle. Wraps from 
255 (-1) to 1 skipping zero.
-128…+127
The value of 0 is skipped except during module 
power-up.
CIPSyncValid BOOL Indicates whether the module is synced with a 1588 
master.
• 0 = CIP Sync is not available
• 1 = CIP Sync is available
CIPSyncTimeout BOOL Indicates that the module was once synced with a 1588 
master, but is not now due to a timeout.
• 0 = A valid time master has not timed out.
• 1 = A valid time master was detected on the 
backplane, but the time master has timed out. 
The module is using its local clock and can be 
drifting away from the last known time 
master.
Ptxx.Data BOOL Current input value. • 0 = Off
• 1 = On
Ptxx.Fault BOOL Indicates that channel data is inaccurate and cannot be 
trusted for use in the application.
For more information, see 
Module Data Quality Reporting 
on page 71.
• 0 = Good data
• 1 = Bad data (Faulted)
If the tag is set to 1, you must troubleshoot the 
module to correct the cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that causes 
the tag to change to 1 is removed, the tag 
automatically resets to 0.
Ptxx.Uncertain BOOL Indicates that the channel data can be inaccurate but the 
degree of inaccuracy is not known.
For more information, see 
Module Data Quality Reporting 
on page 71.
• 0 = Good data
• 1 = Uncertain data
If the tag is set to 1, you must troubleshoot the 
module to correct the cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that causes 
the tag to change to 1 is removed, the tag 
automatically resets to 0.
