Interrupts/diagnostics alarms
5.2 Interrupts

Interrupts
The DI 8×24VDC ST digital input module supports diagnostic interrupts.
Diagnostics interrupt
The module generates a diagnostics interrupt for the following events:
● Short-circuit
● Wire break
● Parameter assignment error
● No supply voltage
5.3
Diagnostics alarms
A diagnostic alarm is generated and the DIAG-LED flashes on the module for each
diagnostics event. You can read out the diagnostics alarms, for example, in the diagnostics
buffer of the CPU. You can evaluate the error codes with the user program.

Remedy
Correct the process wiring
Use a different transducer type or modify the wir-
ing, for example, use cables with larger cross-
section
Connect the cable
Disable diagnostics
•
Connect a resistor of 25 kiloohms to

45 kiloohms to the transducer contacts
Correct the parameter assignment
Check supply voltage L+ on the BaseUnit
