Diagnostic signals
Diagnostic signals contain data relating to the respective status of the encoder. The diagnostic signals
comprise Profibus-relevant information and device-specific information. The master controls communication
with the slave using this information, or forwards it to the higher-level system.
The master requests diagnosis data both prior to parameterization and after configuration of the slave.
This ensures that the slave is present in the bus and that the data stored in the control system software is in
agreement with the data stored in the slave. The slave can also register a diagnosis event in the
Data_Exchange mode. The master then requests the diagnosis data. The user-specific information is defined
in the EN 50170 standard under Encoder profile 1.1.
The display element integrated in the bus cover (dual red/green LED) indicates part of this information.
