3.15: Type F15 Limit States

Length: 1 Register (2 bytes)

This register has two bytes. Each byte has eight bits. The bits in these bytes are associated with the 16 Limits, the most significant bit of the most significant byte with Limit 1 (or 17), through to the least significant bit of the least significant byte with Limit 16 (or 32).

A bit value of 1 means that the particular limit has been passed, while a bit value of 0 means that the particular limit has not been passed.

Example:

Register 02769, Limit States, Value 1 Comparison, 1–16, might contain the following data:
