Self-Test
NOTE: After a device failure, all
digital output contacts revert to their
de-energized state, i.e., all normally
open contacts (a contacts) open and
all normally closed contacts
(b contacts) close.
Table 10.11 lists hardware self-tests. In the Alarm Status column, Latched indi-
cates that HALARM is continuously asserted, Not Latched indicates that
HALARM is pulsed for 5 seconds, and NA indicates that HALARM is not
asserted. All hardware self-test failures generate a front-panel message that is
automatically sent to the serial port. All hardware self-test failures (Latched entry
in Alarm Status column) disable the device.
