Maintenance required alerts
A Maintenance Required alert indicates that the device or some part of the device needs maintenance
soon. If the condition is ignored, the device will eventually fail. There are five parameters associated with
FD_MAINT_ALM, they are described below.
FD_MAINT_MAP
The FD_MAINT_MAP parameter contains a list of conditions indicating that the device or some part of
the device needs maintenance soon. The priority is not the same as the MAINT_PRI parameter described
below. It is hard coded within the device and is not user configurable.
Note that maintenance alarms are not enabled by default for the Rosemount 2230.
FD_MAINT_MASK
The FD_MAINT_MASK parameter will mask any of the failed conditions listed in FD_MAINT_MAP. A bit
on means that the condition is masked out from alarming and being broadcast to the host through the
alarm parameter.
FD_MAINT_PRI
FD_MAINT_PRI designates the alarming priority of the FD_MAINT_ALM, see
The default is 0 and the recommended values are 3 to 7.
FD_MAINT_ACTIVE
The FD_MAINT_ACTIVE parameter displays which of the conditions is active.
FD_MAINT_ALM
An alarm indicating that the device needs maintenance soon. If the condition is ignored, the device will
