• Sign bit, active if negative measured value
Negative measured values are transmitted in the two's complement, i.e:
-1 = FFFF
, -2 = FFFE
hex
• Status bit = 1 and measured value = 0
(i.e. transmission of the value 8000
Measured value overflow or invalid measured value.
Note:
The value -32768 for signalling of "Overflow" or "Invalid" is only used for measured
values in input direction.
If an evaluation of the status of a measured value in output direction is required in the
SIPROTEC device then a separate position in the PROFIBUS-DP message is to be
used for this.
