3. Specify the number of hours between records.
4. Select up to four totalizers or inventories to be logged.
6.7 Configure Process Variable Fault Action
Display Menu → Configuration → Alert Setup → Output Fault Actions
ProLink III Device Tools → Configuration → Fault Processing
Field communicator Device Settings → Alerts → Alert Setup → Output Fault Action
Process Variable Fault Action specifies the values that will be reported via the display and digital
communications if the device encounters a fault condition. The values are also sent to the outputs for
processing against their configured fault actions.
Procedure
Set Process Variable Fault Action as desired.
Default: None
Restriction
If you set Process Variable Fault Action to NAN, you cannot set mA Output Fault Action or Frequency Output
Fault Action to None. If you try to do this, the transmitter will not accept the configuration.
Important
• If you want the mA Output to continue reporting process data during fault conditions, you must set both
Process Variable Fault Action and mA Output Fault Action to None. If mA Output Fault Action is set to
None and Process Variable Fault Action is set to any other option, the mA Output will produce the signal
associated with the selection.
• If you want the Frequency Output to continue reporting process data during fault conditions, you must set
both Process Variable Fault Action and Frequency Output Fault Action to None. If Frequency Output Fault
Action is set to None and Process Variable Fault Action is set to any other option, the Frequency Output
will produce the signal associated with the selection.
