BLOCK_ERR
Display
Index: 6
Data type: Bit String
Access: Read only
Displays the active block errors.
Possibilities:
• Out of service (OOS):
– The Analog Input Block is in the OOS block mode.
– The Resource Block is in the OOS block mode.
• Simulation active: DIP switch 2 "Simulation" on the electronic insert is set to "On", i.e.
simulation is possible.
– The simulation mode for the Analog Input Block is active. → See Page 72, parameter
description for SIMULATE.
– The simulation function is switched on in the Diagnostic Transducer Block. →See
Page 61, parameter description for SIMULATION_MODE.
• Input failure: the input value transmitted by the Pressure or Totalizer Transducer Block is
not valid (status BAD). This could be caused by the following:
– The Pressure or Totalizer Transducer Block is in the OOS block mode.
– A device error is present. In the Diagnosis Transducer Block, the DIAGNOSTIC_CODE
parameter (→ Page 62) displays an error code. → See also these Operating Instructions,
Section 11.1 "Messages".
!
Note!
The "Input Failure" block error is transmitted to downstream function blocks or higher-
order control systems by means of the status BAD of the output value of the Analog Input
Block OUT.
• Block configuration error: a configuration error is present in the Analog Input Block. This
could be caused by the following:
– A unit was selected by means of the XD_SCALE parameter which does not suit the
input value configured in the CHANNEL parameter.
– A valid input value was not selected by means of the CHANNEL parameter.
→ See Page 67, parameter description for CHANNEL.
– An unsuitable linearisation mode was selected by means of the L_TYPE parameter.
→ See Page 69, parameter description for L_TYPE.
– The "Direct" linearisation mode is selected by means of the L_TYPE parameter. The
scaling for the XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE parameters do not match.
– If you assign two Analog Input Blocks the same process variable, e.g. "Primary value",
the same scaling values and units must be set for the two blocks.
CHANNEL
Selection
Index: 15
Data type:
Access: OOS
Assign the output variables (process variables) of the Transducer Blocks "Pressure" or
"Totalizer" to an Analog Input Block as the input value.
Possibilities
• 1: Primary value of the Pressure Transducer Block - a pressure, level or flow value
depending on the measuring mode selected
• 2: Secondary value of the Pressure Transducer Block, here the sensor temperature
• 6: Totalizer 1 from the Totalizer Transducer Block
Factory setting:
• Analog Input Block 1: CHANNEL = 1: Primary value (pressure measured value)
• Analog Input Block 2: CHANNEL = 2: Secondary value (sensor temperature)
• Analog Input Block 3: CHANNEL = 6: Totalizer 1
FIELD_VALUE
Display
Index: 19
Data type:
Access: Read only
The FIELD_VALUE parameter is a structured parameter consisting of two elements.
VALUE
• Displays the process variables after input scaling the Analog Input Block. The value refers
to a percentage of the input range XD_SCALE and is replaced by the simulation value
during active simulation.
STATUS
• Displays the current status.
GRANT_DENY
Selection
Index: 12
Data type: DS-70
Access: Auto, Man, OOS
Grant or restrict access rights for a fieldbus host system to the device. This parameter is not
evaluated by Deltabar S and Cerabar S.
