Channel Status Word Format
The format of the Channel Status word does not depend on the mode that the ANR2 is in. The format is
always the same. There are two Channel Status words in the network data. Word 1 is for channel one and
Word 5 is for channel two.

Bit Descriptions
Bit 15: Reserved –
Always reset to “0”.
Bit 14: Channel Calibrated –
This bit is set to “1” if the channel has been properly calibrated. The ANR2 is
calibrated at the factory. This bit should always be set.
Bit 13: Channel Configured –
Set to “1” when the channel has valid Configuration data associated with it.
Reset to “0” if the channel must be configured before it can be used.
Bit 12: Channel Aligned –
Set to “1” on power up to signify that the ANR2 has finished its power on self
tests and the unit is ready for a command from the host controller. This bit is reset to “0” when the
first command is accepted. This bit is set whenever the module experiences a power on reset.
Bits 11 & 10: Reserved –
Always reset to “0”.
Bits 9 & 8: Null Point Position –
Only active while setting the null point in Alignment Mode, these bits tell
you which direction you have to travel to reach the null point, and if you are there.
Bits 7 - 6: Reserved –
Always reset to “0”.
Bit 5:
Channel Fault –
Set to “1” when there is an error reading the sensor. The state of this bit is only valid
when the ANR2 is in Alignment Mode or Measurement Mode. The most common causes are that the
sensor is not wired to the ANR2 correctly or the Configuration and Alignment parameters are not
correct.
Bit 4:
Channel Measuring –
Set to “1” when the ANR2 is in Measurement Mode and actively reading the
channel’s sensor. If this bit is reset to “0” while in Measurement Mode, the ANR2 will transmit a
value of zero for the position and velocity values.
Bits 3 -2: Reserved –
Always reset to “0”.
