6.1 Diagnostics

Use the Diagnostics command in the Monitor menu or click the button to call up the dia-
gnostics view of the configuration stored in the AS-Interface safety monitor.
In protective operation, the AS-Interface safety monitor continuously transmits diagnostic data
to ASIMON via the configuration interface. In the diagnostics view, the data are displayed in
the status bar as they pass through.
For the diagnostics view, these data are converted to virtual LEDs (tree structure display) for
each device in the configuration or represented as coloured device outlines and device con-
nections (circuit diagram display) which provide a quick overview of the state of the OSSD(s).
Example 1 (circuit diagram display): both OSSDs are validated
Example 1 (tree structure display): both OSSDs are validated
An LED or outline/line colour is assigned to each configured device which indicates its state.
Note
The Diagnostics command is available only when the AS-Interface safety monitor is in protec-
tive operation!
