The following diagnostic behaviors can be assigned:
Diagnostic behavior Description
Alarm The device stops measurement. The totalizers assume the defined alarm
condition. A diagnostic message is generated.
Warning The device continues to measure. Measured value output via PROFIBUS and
totalizers are not affected. A diagnostic message is generated.
Logbook entry only The device continues to measure. The diagnostic message is only displayed in
the Event logbook submenu (Event list submenu) and is not displayed in
alternating sequence with the operational display.
Off The diagnostic event is ignored, and no diagnostic message is generated or
entered.
Displaying the measured value status
If the Analog Input, Digital Input and Totalizer function blocks are configured for cyclic
data transmission, the device status is coded as per PROFIBUS PA Profile 3.02
Specification and transmitted along with the measured value to the PROFIBUS Master
(Class 1) via the coding byte (byte 5). The coding byte is split into three segments: Quality,
Quality Substatus and Limits.
