10 FAULT DIAGNOSIS
10.4.2 Detailed Fault Analysis
The MSC800 system controller outputs faults in a staggered manner in messages.
This means that a more detailed analysis is always possible.
● Communication errors can, for example, occur when transmitting telegrams to the
MSC800 system controller. The MSC800 system controller then returns a fault code.
● For faults that occur during measuring or reading, fault codes are written to a status log.
Message types
The status log distinguishes between four message types:
● Information
● Warning
● Error
● Critical fault
The system saves only the last five entries for each message type.
Information and Warning messages are deleted after a restart.
Calling up the status log
▸ Call up the status log using the SOPAS configuration software.
▸ To do this, install SOPAS on a PC and connect the PC to the MSC800 via Ethernet.
Note
Please contact SICK Support for a more detailed analysis of the fault situation.
