A 5.6.9 Error Status
Bit position
Description
0
Peak starts too early.
1
Peak ends too late.
2
There is no peak present.
3
There are fewer peaks available as selected.
4
Not all peaks are calculated, peaks are too close to each other
(from 3 peaks)
5
Peak is located in front of the measuring range (MR).
6
Peak is located behind the measuring range (MR)

20
Switching output error 1 is active
21
Switching output error 2 is active
24
Durability of the external light source exceeded.
26
External xenon light source is too hot.
27
External xenon light source is out of order.
28
Reserved
29
Overload of the switching outputs
30
DA converter error
The DAC is used as a current output, then this bit is set when no
load is present. A further function is to display an overheating of
the DACs.
31
Reserved
During transmission via RS422 only the upper bits 16 up to 31 of error status word are
transmitted. For the Ethernet transfer are all 32 bits ready to issue.
The error status represents the status of the entire video signal, independent from the
linearized range. If masking (not equal to 0 ... 511) is used, the status of the masked area
is shown.
