13.6. Programming data Cont'd
13.6.4. Node beacon func on
When bits 4, 6 and 7 of the control byte are set, the module will signal its loca)on in the field be flashing the Status LED OFF-
AMBER-RED at .5 sec intervals. This will enable service staff to locate a par)cular node in the field without relying on tag
informa)on.
13.6.5. Reset double indica on service
When bits 4, 5 and 6 of the control byte are set, the Double Indica)on Fault Flag will be reset

13.6.6. Analogue and counter inputs

Input 1 of the Keystone module can be configured to read a 0-5 volt analogue input. When this func)on is set in parameters 22
and 23, the power supply from Output 1 changes from 24V to 5V, to suit a 5kOhm poten)ometer. This is read internally as a 10
bit analogue signal, and can also be viewed with a manager program (parameter 40) as a value in the range of 0-1024.
Input 1 can also be set as a 5kHz counter input, and input 2 as a counter reset, for encoder applica)ons.

13.6.7. Date format

The DeviceNet Specifica)ons state that the format for expressing dates in a DeviceNet device shall be as follows:
"The range of values for variables of type DATE is from D#1972-01-01, the start of the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) era, to
D#2151-06-06 (a total range of 65536 days)
In other words, the date is recorded as the number of days since the 1st of January, 1972.
