Application Manual

7 Status messages

The EK280 gives two types of status information: Momentary status "Stat" (also referred to as "status") and

status register "SReg". These are located on the "Admin." and "Serv." display tabs under

"Status".

Messages in the "Stat" momentary status indicate current conditions such as pending errors. As soon as the

condition is no longer present, the relevant message is removed from the momentary status.

Alarms, warnings and remarks are displayed in the momentary statuses (i.e. messages with numbers in the

range of "1" to "16")

All messages since the last manual clear are collected in status register "SReg". Here you can see, which

messages have been generated since the last station inspection or data retrieval. Status register messages

can be cleared by the user.

Only alarms and warnings are displayed in the status register (i.e. messages with numbers in the range "1"

to "8"). Remarks are not stored as they communicate events which do not cause disruption or are not

persistently relevant (i.e. "summertime", "calibration lock open" or "data transfer in progress").

S.Reg

and

Stat

are summaries of multiple status values. They initially display all available messages as

numbers.

Pressing <ENTER> allows you to see these individually as short texts: The most important message (with

and ⊳ keys you can move to the next or preceding

the lowest number) is displayed first. Using the

message.

The display shows the name of the relevant status word and the message number with preceding "#" in front

of the short text. This information can be useful for entering a "status point" for the outputs.

The messages in SReg (not Stat) can be cleared using the

Clr

command, or with the context menu

command

"Lösche

Statusr." (see chapter 2.3.3, page 8).
