words 6 and 7, respectively) musts be non-zero and non-equal, and the low limit
(output word 6) must be lower than the high limit (output word 7). See Optional:
Setting The Output Data Limits (or User-Defined Scale), earlier in this chapter,
for more information.

Operating Temperature Error (status bit 9)

This bit is set to one whenever the operating temperature exceeds the specified
range (0 to 60 ˚C). This bit is reset to zero when the operating temperature
returns to the specified range.

Over-Limit Error (status bit 10)

This bit is set to one whenever the output data meets or attempts to exceed the
output data limit in output word 7, if output data limiting is properly enabled.
This bit is reset to zero when the output data falls below the output data limit in
output word 7.

Under-Limit Error (status bit 11)

This bit is set to one whenever the output data meets or attempts to exceed the
output data limit in output word 6, if output data limiting is properly enabled.
This bit is reset to zero when the output data rises above the output data limit in
output word 6.

Over-Range Error (status bit 12)

This bit is set to one whenever the output data meets, or attempts to exceed, the
maximum count limit defined by the data format and output range selected (see
Table 3-4). This bit is reset to zero when the output data falls below the
maximum count limit.

Under-Range Error (status bit 13)

This bit is set to one whenever the output data meets or attempts to exceed the
minimum count limit defined by the data format and output range selected (see
Table 3-4). This bit is reset to zero when the output data rises above the
minimum count limit.

Non-Fatal Channel Error (status bit 14)

This bit is set to one whenever your module detects a recoverable channel error,
such as an invalid configuration word or an operating temperature error (see
above), or while the SLC 500 processor is resetting. This bit is reset to zero when
the error no longer exists.

Fatal Channel Error (status bit 15)

This bit is set to one whenever your module detects a "non-recoverable" channel
error, such as a software power-up failure due to corrupt hardware or
malfunctioning software. You may be able to recover from this type of error by
resetting the SLC 500 processor or cycling power to your module.
