Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration for the Input Modules        3-3
1769-IF4 Input Data Values
Words 0 through 3 contain the converted analog input data from the field 
device. The most significant bit (MSB) is the sign bit.
General Status Bits (S0 through S3)
Word 4, bits 0 through 3 contain the general operational status bits for input 
channels 0 through 3. If set (1), these bits indicate an error associated with that 
channel. The over- and under-range bits for channels 0 through 3 are logically 
ORed to the appropriate general status bit.
Over-Range Flag Bits (O0 through O3)
Over-range bits for channels 3 through 0 are contained in word 5, bits 8, 10, 
12, and 14. They apply to all input types. When set (1), this bit indicates input 
signals beyond the normal operating range. However, the module continues to 
convert analog data to the maximum full range value. The bit is automatically 
reset (0) by the module when the over-range condition is cleared and the data 
value is within the normal operating range.
Under-Range Flag Bits (U0 through U3)
Under-range bits for channels 3 through 0 are contained in word 5, bits 9, 11, 
13, and 15. They apply to all input types. When set (1), this bit indicates input 
signals below the normal operating range. It may also indicate an open circuit 
condition, when the module is configured for the 4 to 20 mA range. However, 
the module continues to convert analog data to the minimum full range value. 
The bit is automatically reset (0) by the module when the under-range 
condition is cleared and the data value is within the normal operating range.
