FX2N FX2NC

Some state flags can be used as outputs for external diagnosis (called annunciation) when certain applied instructions are used. These instructions are;

ANS function 46: ANnunciator Set - see page 5-47

ANR function 47: ANnunciator Reset - see page 5-47

When the annunciator function is used the controlled state flags are in the range S900 to S999 (100 points). By programming an external diagnosis circuit as shown below, and monitoring special data register D8049, the lowest activated state from the annunciator range will be displayed.

Each of the states can be assigned to signify an error or fault condition. As a fault occurs the associated state is driven ON. If more than one fault occurs simultaneously, the lowest fault number will be displayed. When the active fault is cleared the next lowest fault will then be processed.

This means that for a correctly prioritized diagnostic system the most dangerous or damaging faults should activate the lowest state flags, from the annunciator range. All state flags used for the annunciator function fall in the range of battery backed/ latched state registers.

Monitoring is enabled by driving special auxiliary relay M8049 ON.

State S900 is activated if input X0 is not driven within one second after the output Y0 has been turned ON.

State S901 is activated when both inputs X1 and X2 are OFF for more than two seconds.

If the cycle time of the controlled machine is less than ten seconds, and input X3 stays ON, state S902 will be set ON if X4 is not activated within this machine cycle time.

If any state from S900 to S999 is activated, i.e. ON, special auxiliary relay M8048 is activated to turn on failure indicator output Y10.

The states activated by the users error / failure diagnosis detection program, are turned OFF by activating input X5. Each time X5 is activated, the active annunciator states are reset in ascending order of state numbers.
