Generic ASCII Channel Data Fault

What does I x .ASCII.Fault mean?

This boolean tag indicates that the channel data for the Generic ASCII protocol is inaccurate and cannot be trusted by the application. A value of 1 (Bad) signifies an active fault condition within the module or its communication specific to the ASCII channel. The tag automatically resets to 0 (Good) once the condition causing the inaccuracy is removed.

• Inaccurate or corrupted data received from the Generic ASCII device
• Internal module processing fault for ASCII data
• Communication issue with the Generic ASCII device (e.g., incorrect protocol settings, cabling problem)

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Troubleshoot the module to identify and correct the specific cause of data inaccuracy for the Generic ASCII channel.

2. 2

   Verify the configuration settings for the Generic ASCII channel (e.g., baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits) match the connected device.

3. 3

   Inspect the physical serial connection to the Generic ASCII device for integrity, proper wiring, and secure connections.
