Seconds Since boot
The time in seconds since power was applied to the Safety Controller. May be used in conjunction with the
Timestamp in the Fault Log and a real time clock reference to establish the time when a fault occurred.
String (Ethernet/IP and PCCC Protocol)
The default format Ethernet/IP string format has a 32 bit length preceding the string (suitable for ControlLogix).
When configuring the Network Settings using the PC Interface, you can change this setting to a 16 bit length
which corresponds to the standard CIP “String” under the Advanced menu. However, when reading an Input
Assembly that includes a string with a 16 bit length, the string length will be preceded by an extra 16 bit word
(0x0000).
The string itself is packed ASCII (2 characters per word). In some systems, the character order may appear
reversed or out of order. For example, the word “System” may read out as “yStsme”. Use "Swap character bytes"
option under the Advanced menu in the Network Settings window to swap characters so words read correctly.
String (Modbus/TCP Protocol)
The string format is packed ASCII (2 characters per word). In some systems, the character order may appear
reversed or out of order. For example, the word “System” may read out as “yStsme”. Use "Swap character bytes"
option under the Advanced menu in the Network Settings window to swap characters so words read correctly.
While the string length is provided, it is usually not required for Modbus/TCP systems. If string length is used for
Modbus/TCP, the length format corresponds to the settings used for Ethernet/IP.
Timestamp
The time, in seconds, when the fault occurred since power up.
Virtual Status Output
The reference designator associated with a particular Virtual Status Output, for example, VO10 is Virtual Status
Output 10.
VO Status
This identifies the location of a bit indicating the status of a Virtual Status Output. In the case of Modbus/TCP, the
state of the Virtual Status Output can be read as a discrete input, as part of an input register, or holding register.
The register given is the offset from 30000 or 40000 followed by the bit location within the register.
