17.5.9 Channel-related diagnostic data Channel-related diagnostic blocks are always three bytes long in following format: Channel-related diagnostic block format Byte 26 Header Byte 27 Channel type Byte 28 Channel-related error code Channel-related diagnostic data Channel-related diagnostic data Byte 3 Global error =0xA9 (General error) Over current =0xA1 (Short circuit)
User parameter data is set by entering values into ‘Ext_User_Prm_Data_ Const(0)’ line of GSD file. Values and relevant bytes are listed in tables below. No further changes should be made to GSD file and Watson-Marlow accepts no responsibility for pump failures arising from changes to GSD file.
