A3.4.2 Status Handling
The setting of INPUT_OPTS is applied to the input status. When INPUT_OPTS is applied, there
arecaseswherethePVstatusbecomes“good”evenifthestatusofmaininputsis“uncertain”,or
thestatusofauxiliaryinputsis“uncertain”or“bad”.
ThePVstatusisclassiedbythefollowing:
• Ifthestatusesoftwomaininputsareboth“good”,
Orifbothstatusesoftwomaininputsareotherthan“good”
See A3.2.1 Main Inputs.
• Ifonlyoneofthestatusesoftwomaininputsis“good”
-IfthestatusofINis“good”andthestatusof“IN_LO”isanythingotherthan“good”
IN>RANGE_LO=>ThestatusofINapplies.
IN≤RANGE_LO=>SeeA3.2.1MainInputs.
-IfthestatusofINisanythingotherthan“good”andthestatusof“IN_LO”is“good”
IN_LO<RANGE_HI=>ThestatusofIN_LOapplies
IN_LO≥RANGE_HI=>SeeA3.2.1MainInputs.
The exception is that if RANGE_LO > RANGE_HI, the PV status is made “Bad.
CongurationError”.
The input status irrelevant to the computing equation selected by ARITH_TYPE will be ignored
anddoesnotaectotherstatuses.Thestatusesofoutputs(OUT.StatusandPRE_OUT.Status)
are interpreted as the status of the worst input among the statuses of PV and auxiliary inputs
(IN_1,IN_2,andIN_3)towhichINPUT_OPTShasbeenapplied.
