I xx .Uncertain

Modbus Master Channel Data Uncertain

Allen-Bradley · Compact 5000 I/O Serial Module

What does I xx .Uncertain mean?

This boolean tag indicates that the channel data for the Modbus master can be inaccurate, but the precise degree of inaccuracy is unknown. When set to 1 (Uncertain), it suggests potential issues with data integrity, though not a definitive fault. The tag automatically resets to 0 (Good data) once the condition causing uncertainty is removed.

Common Causes

  • Intermittent communication issues affecting data reliability
  • Temporary sensor anomalies or signal degradation impacting data integrity
  • Environmental interference (EMI/RFI) causing occasional data corruption on the communication line

Repair Steps & Checklist
