7 DEVICE SUPPORT BLOCK (DSB)
Attention
For PDCs that are configured as NI or NO module, CEAGDSB performs the following processing.
•
Channel Error Processing
The channel error status generated is delivered with the raw data. The error status bits are picked from the raw
data and used as the information while generating the channel status and channel alarms. The channel error is
transmitted only if the error reporting for the channel is allowed using the field network configuration.
Attention
The channel errors are transmitted for the analog values only if the range values are set to default (Low = 10000 and
High = 50000) in the field network configuration.
Extended Diagnostics
The extended diagnostics message contains the communication module diagnostic data and module status,
which are used for generating the CEAGDSB alarms. The additional module status information is used to
produce the channel status parameter of the PDC.
The following table lists the various module status values and a brief description of the state.
Module Status
Data valid
Module error
Wrong module
Missing module This state indicates that the module is physically not present in the configured slot.
Tip
You can view the diagnosis and extended diagnosis of the devices online. For more information, see "Viewing the
slave device diagnosis" on page 100 and "Viewing the slave device's extended diagnosis" on page 101 respectively.
Channel and module alarms based on module status and PDC type
The following table lists the behavior of the channel and module alarms, based on the module states and the
PDC types.

Updates the CHDATARAW parameter for INT32.
Description
This is the normal module status when there are no errors.
This state indicates that one or more channel error is active in the module. This state is applicable only to
the channels that are configured to allow channel error reporting in the Field Network Configuration.
This state indicates that the module type in the slot conflicts with the module type defined in Field
Network Configuration.
