8.9.9 Channel-Based Diagnosis
Definition
The channel-based diagnosis provides information about channel errors of the
modules (here: soft starter) and represents a specification of the code-based
diagnosis. The channel-based diagnosis starts after the module status. The
maximum length is restricted to the maximum overall length of the slave
diagnosis, i.e. 31 bytes. The channel-based diagnosis does not affect the
module status.
The number of channel-based diagnosis messages is restricted to 9 (also refer
to station status 3, bit 7).
Channel-based diagnosis
The structure of the channel-based diagnosis is as follows:

Notice
The channel-based diagnosis is always updated up to the current diagnosis
message in the diagnosis telegram. Subsequent older diagnosis messages are
not deleted. Remedy: Analyze the valid current length of the diagnosis telegram:
• STEP 7 from the RET_VAL parameter of SFC 13.
