Each binary digit (bit) represents a flag that is either active (state 1) or not active (state 0). To help decode the
System Status Word, each bit is numbered (starting with 0 for the least significant to 31 for the most significant) as
shown below.
Table 29 contains a list of the lower 16 status flags that will be useful for fault finding. The upper 16 status flags are
reserved by Edwards.

Bit numbers
The System Status word used in the example above was obtained with the pump at rest. By decoding the word, we
can learn more about the state of the pump. Refer to Table 30.

Table 29 - Status flags
Bit number Status flag Active flags means
0 Fail Fail status condition active
1 Stopped speed Below stopped speed
2 Normal speed Above normal speed

We can deduce
00The pump has not failed
1 1 The pump is at rest
2 0 Speed is below normal speed
