The dialog Module Status / Control shows all relevant Status, EventStatus and Control items for the selected module.
A module is the combination of one or multiple high voltage channels in a common housing.
The dialog Module Status / Control can be accessed the following ways:
In the first column, the Status bits are displayed. These bits represent the actual module-wide status. These bits are updated whenever the status changes.
Bit | Meaning |
---|---|
Is Kill Enable | All Channels are in mode Kill Enable |
Is Temperature Good | The module temperature is below 55 °C |
Is Supply Good | All supplies are in the allowed range |
Is Module Good | |
Is Event Active | |
Is Safety Loop Good | The Safety Loop is closed |
Is No Ramp | No channel is ramping |
Is No Sum Error | |
Is Command Complete | |
Is Special Mode | |
Is Input Error | |
Is Service Needed | A hardware failure occured |
Is Stop | |
Is Interlock Out | |
Is Adjusting | All channels are in fine-adjusting state to compensate temperature drifts |
In the second colum, the module-wide EventvStatus bits are displayed. These bits represent the captured status. Whenever a Status bit changes to one, the corresponding Event Status bit is also set. In opposite to the Status bits, the EventStatus bits are not cleared automatically, but must be cleared by the user.
Clearing the module EventStatus is possible with the Button "Clear Events".
Bit | Meaning |
---|---|
Event Temperature Not Good | The maximum temperature was exceeded |
Event Supply Not Good | At least one supply was out of range |
Event Safety Loop Not Good | The Safety Loop was open |
Event Input Error | An input error occured |
Event Service | A hardware error was present |
Event Restart |
In the third column, the Event Mask bits are displayed. The Event Mask bits serve two purposes:
Bit | Meaning |
---|---|
Mask Temperature Not Good | |
Mask Supply Not Good | |
Mask Safety Loop Not Good | |
Mask Input Error | |
Mask Service | |
