9.2 Monitoring the Device Status
The device status provides an overview of the overall condition of the device.
Many process visualization systems record the device status for a device in
order to present its condition in graphic form.
The device displays its current status as “Error” or “OK” in the “Device Status”
frame. The device determines this status from the individual monitoring
results.
The device enables you to
signal the device status out-of-band via a signal contact
(see on page 219 “Monitoring the Device Status via the Signal Contact”)
signal the device status by sending a trap when the device status changes
detect the device status in the Web-based interface on the system side.
query the device status in the Command Line Interface.
The device status of the device includes:
Incorrect supply voltage
- at least one of the 2 supply voltages is not operating,
- the internal supply voltage is not operating.
The temperature threshold has been exceeded or has not been reached.
The removal of a module (for modular devices).
The removal of the ACA.
The configuration on the ACA does not match that in the device.
The interruption of the connection at at least one port. In the Basic
Settings:Port Configuration menu, you define which ports the
device signals if the connection is down (see on page 82 “Displaying
detected connection errors”). On delivery, there is no link monitoring.
Event in the ring redundancy:
Loss of the redundancy (in ring manager mode). On delivery, there is no
ring redundancy monitoring.
Event in the ring/network coupling:
Loss of the redundancy. On delivery, there is no ring redundancy
monitoring.
The following conditions are also reported by the device in standby mode:
– Defective link status of the control line
– Partner device is in standby mode
Failure of a fan (MACH 4000).
