5.3 Meaning of the contents of the different protocol modes
PLC-Out:
The data refers to the PLC output of the DIGIFORCE
®
. The data described
here is the data transferred from the DIGIFORCE
®
type 9310 to the master.
The function of the PLC-In / PLC-Out bits is identical to the parallel PLC I/O
ports on the unit itself and can be found from the operating manual for the
unit.
5.3.1 PLC outputs Byte 1 (PLC signal lines OK/NOK, Ready etc.)

Bit 7 MSB
Bit 0
device is in the profibus-menu (no communication)
Bits 1-5 give the current device status, where not all options are used yet.
Bit 6
provides the internal watchdog status between the communications card
and the measurement processor.
Bit 7
identifies a general internal communication error (Block transfer)
