Status Codes for Uncertain Quality

Values in hex notation

Description

 

 

0x4B

Value is a substituted value (normally used in Fail-safe).

0x4C/0x4F

Initial value.

0x47

Last usable value.

Diagnostics

All diagnostic information shown below is viewable via PDM.

Diagnosis reply (applies only to cyclic masters)

This is a response to a GET-DIAG message.

During DPV0 data exchange, the PROFIBUS PA slave will notify the Master when a serious error occurs. The Master will then send a Diagnosis request. The reply to this request is normally logged in the PLC and is referred to as the "Hex values."

The reply may contain two parts. The first part is 6 bytes long and is defined by the PROFIBUS standard. If there is a second part, it is called the ’extended diagnostic’ and it is eight bytes long. The last four bytes of the extended diagnostic message give the error code shown below. (The same information is also available acyclically via the Diagnosis Object.

Acyclic Diagnostics

This consists of four bytes.
