No response within timeout period
No response received after receiving ENQ
The AB object received an acknowledgment of its poll from the device. The
device accepted the command from Lookout
Direct
. However, the device
did not appear to send anything else back in response. You may have to
increase Receive timeout to make sure Lookout
Direct
allows enough time
to receive the message.
EOT response received
The AB object received an EOT (end of transmission) response when it
polled the device indicating that the device did not have a message ready to
give in response to the Lookout
Direct
poll request. It is unlikely that you
will ever see this error message.
Received TSN does not match
Response message garbled -- bad CRC or bad BCC
Response message garbled -- no DLE EXT
Response message garbled -- bad DLE follower
The AB object is receiving messages from the device. However, the
messages may be failing the selected data integrity test. Verify that the
object Error detection setting is the same as the settings on the device.
Another cause may be that the last part of the message is actually getting
clipped off before it is completed. You may have to increase the Receive
gap Serial Port setting to ensure Lookout
Direct
is receiving the entire
message. If your Serial Port is configured for radio this could be caused by
an audible squelch tail occurring at the end of a radio transmission. You
may need to adjust the RTS delay off or the CTS timeout settings. Also
consider increasing the number of Retry attempts.
Socket communications error dd: msg
The AB object has encountered a problem while attempting to
communicate using TCP/IP. The error number
dd
and corresponding error
message
msg
give further information. Confirm that the IP address of the
PLC has been entered correctly and that the PLC is reachable over the
TCP/IP network.
SS card failed
This message is suffixed with an error message read from the card itself.
You may need to contact the vendor of your card for technical support.
