2. Frequency Output Fault Action is evaluated.
• If it is set to None, the output reports the value associated with the setting of Process Variable Fault
Action.
• If it is set to any other option, the output performs the specified fault action.
If you want the Frequency Output to continue to report process data during fault conditions, you must set
both Frequency Output Fault Action and Process Variable Fault Action to None.
Interaction between Process Variable Fault Action and Discrete Output Fault Action
If Discrete Output Fault Action is set to None and Discrete Output Source is set to Flow Rate Switch, the
Discrete Output state during a fault depends on the setting of Process Variable Fault Action.
If the device detects a fault condition:
1. Process Variable Fault Action is evaluated and applied.
2. Discrete Output Fault Action is evaluated.
• If it is set to None, and Discrete Output Source is set to Flow Rate Switch, the Discrete Output will
use the value determined by the current setting of Process Variable Fault Action to determine if a
flow rate switch has occurred.
• If Discrete Output Source is set to any other option, the setting of Process Variable Fault Action is
irrelevant to the behavior of the Discrete Output during fault conditions. The Discrete Output is set
to the specified fault action.
If you want the Discrete Output to report a flow rate switch appropriately during fault conditions, you must set
both Discrete Output Fault Action and Process Variable Fault Action to None.
