Driver Error Messages
Message
Description
MET1:#01 Err. Cant set mode to
state=%d for MD=%s
An attempt was made to send a mode control command to a device. The
required mode is derived from the Data Array value. The driver does not
recognize the value found and thus cannot send the command. Resolve by
having the client device send a valid value to the DA:offset associated with
the reported MD. Refer section 5.8.
MET1:#02 Err. Cant set Sample time
to zero. MD=%s
The reported Map Descriptor is being used to send a new Sample Time to
the field device but the time found in the Data Aarray:offset specified on
the Map Descriptor is zero. The driver cannot send a sample time of zero.
Resolve by having the Client send a non-zero value to the DA:Offset.
MET1:#03 Err. Cant set Holde time
to zero. MD=%s
The reported Map Descriptor is being used to send a new Hold Time to the
field device but the time found in the Data Array:offset specified on the
Map Descriptor is zero. The driver cannot send a sample time of zero.
Resolve by having the Client send a non-zero value to the DA:Offset.
MET1:#04a/b Err. Invalid time
string=%s MD=%s
Message 4a
is printed when a response to a poll for the Sample/Hold time
returned a response whose time cannot be correctly understood by the
driver. If this error occurs rarely it may be a consequence of an occasional
corruption. If it occurs consistently take a log ensure this event occurs at
least once during the log and contact Tech Support. The FieldServer web
site provide tools and instructions for taking logs.
Message 4b
is printed when the time is formatted correctly but found be
an invalid time. The same considerations apply as with 4a.
MET1:#05 FYI. MD=%s too short to
store all. Ignored stat incremented
each time this happens. Play safe -
set MD length=20.
This message is printed once and then suppressed.
The Map descriptor is not long enough to store all data from the record..

Refer to section 5.10.
MET1:#06 Err. Cant store Current
Record. Chksum err.
If a response to a read Current Record contains a checksum error the driver
prints this message. If this error occurs rarely, it may be a consequence of
an occasional corruption. If it occurs consistently take a log ensure this
event occurs at least once during the log and contact Tech Support.
MET1:#07 Err. Cant find DA=%s to
get Mode.
MET1:#07b Err. Cant find DA=%s to
set Mode.
MET1:#07c Err. Cant find DA=%s to
get current record.
MET1:#07d Err. Cant find DA=%s to
store times.
Printed by the Server side of the driver. The Server can’t find the specified
Data Array to store incoming data or from which data will be extracted to
form a response.
