5.3.3 System Diagnosis
SICAM AK 3 contains extensive diagnostic functions for monitoring the system. Since the
firmware automatically executes the appropriate error monitoring routines, for this no settings
of any kind by the user are necessary.
With the tool "Diagnostic", system states and errors can be displayed. Thereby, the local error
tables of the selected automation units and the global error table are read and checked for er-
ror records. The check result is represented in plain text on the monitor and can be printed in
need.
The following functions are available:
•
Acknowledge network
With the function
Acknowledge network
, the signals of all automation units located in
the network are reset, insofar as they are no longer present.
•
Network overview diagnostic
The error messages of all automation units in the network are output in a report window
with the function

(sum information).
•
AU overview diagnostic
The error messages of all automation units in the network are output in a report window
with the function
