ONLINE DIAGNOSTICS
The
Online Diagnostics
screen is accessed from the
Utilities
drop down menu.
Online Diagnostics are transmitted by each unit in a network before the user’s data is transmitted. All units must
be programmed with the Online Diagnostics parameter to receive Diagnostics from a system. The unit that the
computer is interfaced with will output Online Diagnostics as they are received. This unit must have the Output
Online Diagnostic Data to the Setup Port parameter programmed (found on the Setup Modem/Radio Parameters
Screen).
Using Online Diagnostics does not require suspension of network operation.
Online Diagnostics are subject to alarm and filter conditions defined in the Diagnostic IDs, Alarms and Filters screen
(see
Figure 5-13
). When Online Diagnostics are received and a diagnostic field falls outside the alarm limits, a “<“
character will designate a value less than the low alarm and a “>” character will designate a value greater than the
high alarm.
If Online Diagnostics are received and a diagnostic field falls outside the filter limits, the diagnostic information will
be considered invalid and will not be displayed.
