G4 Multi Channel Weighing Instrument

Instrument status
This register holds the overall status for the instrument
Bits set to 1 in this register have the following meaning:
Bit no Function Comment
0 Remote operation ‘1’ = On ‘0’ = Off
1
Program reset The bit is set each time the program starts, and it
indicates that volatile data is lost.
The bit is reset as Instrument status is read, over
serial communication (Modbus RTU) or over
Ethernet (Modbus TCP), for the first time after
reset/power-up. Note that the reply contains the set
bit if it was set.
Reading Instrument Status via Fieldbus interface will
not reset this bit. To reset this bit with fieldbus
interface a specific reset command must be used.
Care must be taken if more than one interface is
used to communicate with the instrument and the
Program reset bit is to be used.
2-15
Not used
Note: If this register (bits) is read as float value,
see description of Data representation.
Scale X: Error code
This register holds the error code for a scale.
Normally this register should contain ‘000’ which means no error.
Error codes 000 to 255 are valid in this register.
