The table explains the meaning of possible device status and actions for the user or service.
Depending on the type and availability of local display of the device, status is shown as
SIMATIC and/or NAMUR NE107 symbol. Additionally the symbol for the according device
status is visualized in remote engineering, asset management or process control systems.
Refer to the manual of your automation system how diagnostics states are displayed.
