ALTUS Nexto Series User Manual

5. CONFIGURATION
ATTENTION
In case of internal points mapped to communication drivers, it is not recommended to modify
the value of quality flags that dont have a correspondent on the given protocol (i.e, flags that
are not described on the following tables). This will result on generation of events equal
to the previous one (but with a more recent timestamp) and, this way, depending on the
configuration selected for the transmission mode of analog inputs events, it could overwrite
the previous event if this one was not delivered to the control center yet.
5.1.5.1.1. Internal Quality
This is the QUALITY structure. The table shows detailed each of its components.
Bit Name Type Description
0 FLAG_RESTART BOOL
The RESTART flag indicates that the data
haven’t been updated by the field since the
device’s reset.
1 FLAG_COMM_FAIL BOOL
Indicates there is a communication failure
on the way between the data origin device
and the reports device.
2 FLAG_REMOTE_SUBSTITUTED BOOL
If TRUE the data values are overwritten in
the remote communication devices.
3 FLAG_LOCAL_SUBSTITUTED BOOL
If TRUE the data value is overwritten by
the device which generated this flag. This
behavior might occur due to a working in
diagnostic or temporary due to human in-
tervention.
4 FLAG_FILTER BOOL
Flag used to signalize and prevent the event
communication channel overload, as oscil-
lations (rapid changes) on the digital in-
puts.
5 FLAG_OVERFLOW BOOL
This flag should indicates a quality prob-
lem, that the value, of the attribute to which
the quality has been associated, is beyond
representation.
6 FLAG_REFERENCE_ERROR BOOL
This flag should identify that the value can-
not be correct due to out of calibration ref-
erence.
7 FLAG_INCONSISTENT BOOL
This flag should identify that an evaluation
function has found an inconsistency.
8 FLAG_OUT_OF_RANGE BOOL
This flag should indicates a quality prob-
lem that the attribute to which the quality
has been associated is beyond the prede-
fined values capacity.
9 FLAG_INACCURATE BOOL
This flag should indicates that the value
doesn’t attend the declared precision of the
source.
10 FLAG_OLD_DATA BOOL
A value seems to be outdated. In case an
update doesn’t occur during a specific time
period.
11 FLAG_FAILURE BOOL
This flag should indicates that a watch
function detected an internal or external
failure.
12 FLAG_OPERATOR_BLOCKED BOOL Update blocked by operator.
