6.2.11 Error Messages
In the event of errors the corresponding error messages appear on the display and the error outputs Qs and Qp (active low) are set
according to the following table. The error state can be questioned via the GSI command. In principle a combination of several er-
rors can exist. e.g. a too low supply voltage can cause a counter error. In this case the GSI command would report “00000110“ (via
RS422).
