Procedure
Set Discrete Output Fault Action as desired.
The default setting is None.
Options for Discrete Output Fault Action

Discrete Output behavior
Polarity=Active High Polarity=Active Low
Upscale • Fault: Discrete Output is ON (site-
specific voltage)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled
by its assignment
• Fault: Discrete Output is OFF (0 V)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled
by its assignment
Downscale • Fault: Discrete Output is OFF (0 V)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled
by its assignment
• Fault: Discrete Output is ON (site-
specific voltage)
• No fault: Discrete Output is controlled
by its assignment
None (default) Discrete Output is controlled by its assignment
Fault indication with the Discrete Output
To indicate faults via the Discrete Output, set Discrete Output Source to Fault. Then, if a fault occurs, the
Discrete Output is always ON and the setting of Discrete Output Fault Action is ignored.
10.4 Configure an enhanced event

Device Tools → Configuration → Events → Enhanced Events
Field communicator Configure → Alert Setup → Enhanced Events
An enhanced event is used to provide notification of process changes. An enhanced event occurs (is ON) if the
real-time value of a user-specified process variable moves above (HI) or below (LO) a user-defined setpoint, or
in range (IN) or out of range (OUT) with respect to two user-defined setpoints. You can define up to five
enhanced events.
Procedure
1. Select the event that you want to configure.
2. Specify Event Type.
Option
Description
HI x > A
The event occurs when the value of the assigned process variable (x) is greater
than the setpoint (Setpoint A), endpoint not included.
LO x < A
