Interpretation of process data

Following process data are provided:

Interpretation of process data 1:
EL5042, process data

The interpretation of the process data depend on the mode (BiSS-C or SSI).

Name

Description for BiSS-C mode

Status_Warning

Status bit “Warning” is part of the BiSS-C frame and is directly communicated from the slave. The bit is active HIGH. For troubleshooting please refer to slave documentation.

Status_Error

Status bit “Error” is part of the BiSS-C frame and is directly communicated from the slave. The bit is active HIGH. If the error bit is HIGH, it will be also displayed in the “TxPDO State”. For troubleshooting please refer to slave documentation.

Status_Ready

In the idle state of BiSS-C communication the slave indicates his ready state with high value. Only if the ready bit is HIGH, data transmission can be started.

If the ready bit is LOW, please check chapter error handling.

Status_Diag

Indicates that a new message is available in the “Diag History”.

Status_TxPDO State

Validity of the data of the associated TxPDO

0 = valid
1 = invalid

Status_Input cycle counter

2-bit counter for synchronization, is incremented only if a new value is present.

Position

BiSS-C position value

Name

Description for SSI mode

Status_Warning

Status bit “Warning” is deactivated by default in SSI mode.

If status bits are activated (0x80p8:02 “Disable Status Bits” = FALSE), the last 2 bits of the SSI frame are directly mapped as warning and error bit.

Status_Error

Status bit “Error” is deactivated by default in SSI mode.

If status bits are activated (0x80p8:02 “Disable Status Bits” = FALSE), the last 2 bits of the SSI frame are directly mapped as warning and error bit.

Status_Ready

In the idle state of SSI communication the slave indicates his ready state with HIGH value. Only if the ready bit is high, data transmission can be started.

If the ready bit is LOW, please check chapter error handling.

Status_Diag

Indicates that a new message is available in the “Diag History”.

Status_TxPDO State

Validity of the data of the associated TxPDO

0 = valid
1 = invalid

Status_Input cycle counter

2-bit counter for synchronization, is incremented only if a new value is present

Position

SSI position value
