Module Tag Definitions Appendix B
Event Input Tags
Tab le 47  describes the 5094-IB32 module event input tags. The event input tags 
are displayed only if Data with Events is selected in the Module Definition 
window.
Table 47 - 5094-IB32 Module Event Input Tags
 Name Data Type Definition Valid Values
RunMode BOOL The point’s operating state • 0 = Idle
•1 = Run Mode
ConnectionFaulted BOOL Indicates if a connection is running.
The module sets this tag to 0 when connected. If the module 
is not connected, it changes the tag to 1.
• 0 = Connection running
• 1 = Connection not running
DiagnosticActive BOOL Indicates if any diagnostics are active or if the prognostics 
threshold is reached.
• 0 = No diagnostics active
• 1 = One or more diagnostics are active or the 
prognostics threshold is reached
DiagnosticSequenceCount SINT Increments for each time a distinct diagnostic condition is 
detected, and when a distinct diagnostic condition 
transitions from detected to not detected. 
Set to zero by product reset or power cycle. Wraps from 255 
(-1) to 1 skipping zero.
-128…+127
The value of 0 is skipped except during module 
powerup.
Eventxx.Fault BOOL Indicates that point data is inaccurate and cannot be trusted 
for use in the application.
For more information, see Module Data Quality Reporting
 on 
page 47.
• 0 = Good
• 1 = Bad, causing fault
If the tag is set to 1, you must troubleshoot the 
module to correct the cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that causes the 
tag to change to 1 is removed, the tag 
automatically resets to 0.
Eventxx.Uncertain BOOL Indicates that the point data can be inaccurate but the 
degree of inaccuracy is not known.
For more information, see Module Data Quality Reporting
 on 
page 47.
• 0 = Good data
• 1 = Uncertain data
If the tag is set to 1, you must troubleshoot the 
module to correct the cause of the inaccuracy.
IMPORTANT: Once the condition that causes the 
tag to change to 1 is removed, the tag 
automatically resets to 0.
Eventxx.EventDropped BOOL Indicates when an event has been discarded because events 
are occurring faster than they are being acknowledged.
• 0 = An event status has not been dropped.
• 1 = An event status has been dropped.
Eventxx.EventRising BOOL Indicates whether an event triggered when an input 
transition results in an event pattern being matched.
0 or 1
Eventxx.EventFalling BOOL Indicates whether an event triggered when an input 
transition resulted in an event pattern no longer being 
matched.
0 or 1
Eventxx.CIPSyncValid BOOL Indicates whether the module is synced with a 1588 master. • 0 = CIP Sync is not available
• 1 = CIP Sync is available
Eventxx.CIPSyncTimeout BOOL Indicates that the module was once synced with a 1588 
master, but is not now due to a timeout.
• 0 = A valid time master has not timed out.
• 1 = A valid time master was detected on the 
backplane, but the time master has timed out. 
The module is using its local clock and can be 
drifting away from the last known time master.
Eventxx.EventsPending SINT The number of events currently queued in the modules. A 
value greater than 0 indicates that the controller is not 
currently keeping up with the rate of events.
All positive values.
Eventxx.EventNumber DINT Running count of events, which increments by one each new 
time event. The originator sets the Event Number Ack to the 
Event Number to acknowledge receipt of the event. When 
the EventNumber reaches it maximum value and rolls over it 
is to roll over to 1, not 0. 
All values.
