BCD Input

What does 16 mean?

This error occurs if a BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) command is encountered in the CLM01.3-M user program, but the auxiliary inputs designated for BCD operation are not configured or wired to interpret data in BCD format.

• A BCD program command (e.g., BCA, BCB, BCD) is used without the corresponding auxiliary inputs being set for BCD interpretation.
• Auxiliary input configuration parameters are incorrectly set, expecting standard digital inputs instead of BCD.
• Wiring errors on auxiliary inputs 1 through 8 prevent proper BCD signal reception.
• Faulty BCD input device or sensor.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Verify that auxiliary inputs 1 through 8 are correctly configured and wired for BCD format if BCD program commands are used.

2. 2

   Review the relevant CLM01.3-M parameters that define the type and format of auxiliary inputs to ensure they match BCD requirements.

3. 3

   Inspect the wiring of auxiliary inputs 1 through 8 for any misconnections, loose terminals, or shorts.

4. 4

   If a BCD input device is used, check its functionality and output signals to ensure it is providing valid BCD data.

5. 5

   Modify the user program to either remove BCD commands if inputs cannot be configured for BCD, or correct the input configuration.
