Field Diagnostic (FD) Alert Category
Select either Enable or Suppress in the desired category for each of the alerts in Electronic, Configuration, Sensor,
Environment, Travel, Proximity, Travel History, Test Overdue, Performance, and Valve Stroke:
Fail Enable (FD_FAIL_MAP_2 [86]) enables or disables conditions that can cause a failed alert. A failed alert indicates a
failure within the device that will make the device or some part of the device non‐operational. Table C‐2 lists the
available Field Diagnostic alerts.
Fail Suppress (FD_FAIL_MASK_2 [90]) determines which of the failed alert conditions are suppressed so that they are
not reported. Even if reporting is suppressed, the bit in Fail Active (FD_FAIL_ACTIVE [RB 53]) is still set in the Resource
Block.
Check Function Enable (FD_CHECK_MAP_2 [89]) enables or disables conditions that can cause a check function alert.
A check function alert indicates that the output signal is temporarily invalid (e.g. frozen) due to ongoing work on the
device.
Check Function Suppress (FD_CHECK_MASK_2 [93]) determines which of the check function alert conditions are
suppressed. Even if the reporting is suppressed, the bit in Check Function Active (FD_CHECK_ACTIVE [RB 56]) is still set
in the Resource Block.
Off Specification Enable (FD_OFFSPEC_MAP_2 [87]) enables or disables conditions that can cause an off specification
alert. An off specification alert indicates that the device is operating outside its specified range or internal diagnostics
indicate deviations from set values. Table C‐2 lists the available Field Diagnostic alerts.
Off Specification Suppress (FD_OFFSPEC_MASK_2 [91]) determines which of the off specification alert conditions are
suppressed so that they are not reported. Even if reporting is suppressed, the bit in Off Specification Active
(FD_OFFSPEC_ACTIVE [RB 54]) is still set in the Resource Block.
Maintenance Enable (FD_MAINT_MAP_2 [88]) enables or disables conditions that can cause a maintenance alert. A
maintenance alert indicates the device or some part of the device needs maintenance soon. Table C‐2 lists the
available Field Diagnostic alerts.
Maintenance Suppress (FD_MAINT_MASK_2 [92]) determines which of the maintenance alert conditions are
suppressed so that they are not reported. Even if reporting is suppressed, the bit in Maintenance Active
(FD_MAINT_ACTIVE [RB 55]) is still set in the Resource Block.
