Communication
48
Via NMT State Response service, the CNs signal their states to
the MN. IdentResponse Service is used by the MN to identify
configured but unrecognized CNs at system start-up or after loss
of communication. See
Appendix: IdentResponse Frame
for more
information.
The StatusResponse Service is used by the MN to query the
current status of CNs that are not communicating isochronously. It
is used for error signaling in runtime. If an error occurs, the EN
(Error New) flag in the PRes frame is toggled. This notifies the MN
that an error has occurred and the MN polls the CN for a
StatusResponse that includes error information. A list of active
and historical error events can be read using SDO from object
0x1003.
