9.1 Description of device errors
The VISIC100SF switches immediately to Malfunction when a device error occurs. In
operating state Malfunction, the malfunction relay opens and the three analog interfaces
signal 1 mA. The digital interfaces (PROFIBUS and Modbus) have a measured value status
which switches to “Bad” when an error occurs. The following Table shows the error codes
displayed for possible device errors.
Table 20: Device error coding
Information on calling up error codes on the display, see “Calling up maintenance
request and malfunction messages with menu item “Status””, page 53.
