Detailed fault analysis
The SIM2000-2 Prime controller outputs faults in a staggered manner in messages.
This means that a more detailed analysis is always possible.
•
Communication errors can, for example, occur when transmitting telegrams to the
SIM2000-2 Prime controller. The SIM2000-2 Prime controller then returns a fault code.
•
For faults that occur during measuring or reading, fault codes are written to a
status log
.
The status log distinguishes between four message types:
•
Information
•
Warning
•
Error
•
Critical fault
The system saves only the last five entries for each message type.
Information
and
Warning
messages are deleted after a restart.
▸
Call up the status log using the SOPAS configuration software.
▸
To do this, install SOPAS on a computer and connect the computer to the SIM2000-2
Prime controller via Ethernet.
NOTE!
Please contact SICK Support for a more detailed analysis of the fault situation.
