Signal types – Pin assignment RS485
12.4.6 Process input data
The BL××-1RS485/422-module sends the data, received by the device, into a 128-byte receive-buf-
fer. The module then transmits the data segmented via the module bus and the gateway to the SPS.
The transmission is realized in a 8-byte format which is structured as follows:
1 status byte is required to ensure trouble-free transmission of the data.
1 byte contains the diagnostics data.
6 bytes are used to contain the user data.
n = offset of input data; depending on extension of station and the corresponding fieldbus.

Designation Value Description
STAT 0-1 1: The communication with the data terminal equipment (DTE) is not
disturbed.
0: The communication with the data terminal equipment (DTE) is dis-
turbed. A diagnostics message is sent only if the parameter ”Deactivate
diagnostics = no/0“.
The diagnostic data show the cause of the communication distur-
bance.
The user has to set back this bit in the process output data by using
STATRES.
