COUNT
the
CRC ALARM CH1 MESSAGE COUNT
• Correlation of Failed CRC and Bit Error Rate (BER): The CRC check may fail if one or more bits in a packet are cor-
rupted. Therefore, an exact correlation between the CRC fail rate and the BER is not possible. Under certain assump-
tions an approximation can be made as follows. A direct input/output packet containing 20 bytes results in 160 bits of
data being sent and therefore, a transmission of 63 packets is equivalent to 10,000 bits. A BER of 10
error for every 10,000 bits sent/received. Assuming the best case of only 1 bit error in a failed packet, having 1 failed
5
packet for every 63 received is about equal to a BER of 10

UNRETURNED
MESSAGES ALARM CH1
The L60 checks integrity of the direct input/output communication ring by counting unreturned messages. In the ring config-
uration, all messages originating at a given device should return within a pre-defined period of time. The Unreturned Mes-
sages Alarm function is available for monitoring the integrity of the communication ring by tracking the rate of unreturned
messages. This function counts all the outgoing messages and a separate counter adds the messages have failed to
return. When the unreturned messages counter reaches the user-definable level specified by the
setting and within the user-defined message count
THRESHOLD
FlexLogic™ operand is set.
When the total message counter reaches the user-defined maximum specified by the
setting, both the counters reset and the monitoring process is restarted.
COUNT
The operand shall be configured to drive an output contact, user-programmable LED, or selected communication-based
output. Latching and acknowledging conditions, if required, should be programmed accordingly.
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 the
