Explicit Messaging
Explicit messages are used to transfer data that does not require
continuous updates. They are typically used to configure, monitor, and
diagnose devices over the network.
F
Fault Action
A fault action determines how the Option Module and connected drive
act when a communications fault (for example, a cable is disconnected)
occurs or when the controller is switched out of run mode. The former
uses a communications fault action, and the latter uses an idle fault
action.
Fault Configuration
When communications are disrupted (for example, a cable is
disconnected), the Option Module and PowerFlex drive can respond
with a user-defined fault configuration. The user sets the data that is
sent to the drive using specific fault configuration parameters in the
Option Module. When a fault action parameter is set to use the fault
configuration data and a fault occurs, the data from these parameters is
sent as the Logic Command, Reference, and/or Datalink(s).
