CRC Alarm Count
Range: 100 to 10000 in steps of 1
Default: 600
When the total message counter reaches the user-defined maximum specified by this
setting, both the counters reset and the monitoring process is restarted.
To monitor communications integrity, the D90
64 kbps) or two messages per second (128 kbps) even if there is no change in the direct
outputs. For example, setting the
window of about 160 minutes at 64 kbps and 80 minutes at 128 kbps. If the messages
are sent faster as a result of direct outputs activity, the monitoring time interval
shortens. Take this into account when determining this setting. For example, if the
requirement is a maximum monitoring time interval of 10 minutes at 64 kbps, then the
setting is 10 × 60 × 1 = 600.
CRC Alarm Threshold
Range: 1 to 1000 in steps of 1

Range: Enabled, Disabled
Default: Disabled
This setting enables and disables the logging of CRC alarm events in the sequence of

The D90 checks integrity of the direct input/output communication ring by counting
unreturned messages. In the ring configuration, all messages originating at a given
device are to return within a pre-defined period of time. The unreturned messages alarm
function is available for monitoring the integrity of the communication ring by tracking
the rate of unreturned messages. This function counts all outgoing messages and a
separate counter adds the messages have failed to return.
The unreturned messages alarm function is available on a per-channel basis and is
active only in the ring configuration. The total number of unreturned input/output
messages is available as an actual value.
