FLAGS A1 – A2
The flags
A1
and
A2
, when lit, indicate that the respective channel is enabled, not reflecting the condition or value of the signal present at its termi-
nals. In addition to indicating whether or not a channel is enabled, the flags also indicate when there is something wrong on the respective channel.
Improper conditions on the input channels are called "Error Condition" and are showed in specific paragraphs of this manual.
5.1.2
ANALOG INPUT ERROR CONDITION
It is called an "Error Condition" every condition of use or improper operation for the
DigiRail Connect
input channels. Many of the improper condi-
tions are identified and then flagged by the blinking of the light signal of the respective channel.
The error conditions of the analog inputs are showed in
Table 03
.
