Appendix D. Driver Error Messages
The driver reports information and errors to you in the form of messages printed to the error log. Those
messages marked with a * are only printed once even if they occur repeatedly.
Error Message Explanation
CarrierDP:1 FYI. The
MapDesc called <%s> is too
short
The length of the Map Descriptor used to expose driver statistics is too
short. Set the length to at least 1000 by editing the CSV file. Then reset
the FieldServer. You can ignore this message if you wish – the driver will
abandon statistics which require the length of the Map Descriptor to be
increased.
CarrierDP:2 FYI. You could
have used a MapDesc
called <%s> to expose
diagnostic info.
You can safely ignore this message. It is a prompt. Read Appendix D.1 of
this manual for more information.
CarrierDP:3 Err. Illegal
Node_ID=%d Valid=1..15
Valid node numbers are in the range 1 to 15 inclusive. Read section 4.3
for more information.
*
CarrierDP:4 FYI. Address
has no meaning. Best set to
0 MapDesc=<%s>
You can safely ignore this message. The address parameter is
commonly used in FieldServer configurations but it has no meaning in
the configuration of this driver. It is best to remove the parameter from
the configuration or set its value to 0.
*
CarrDP:#5 Err. DataPort is
read only. No wrbc/x.
MapDesc=<%s>
The Carrier DataPort device is read only. You cannot have a Map
Descriptor which writes to the device. Delete the Map Descriptor or
changing it to a read
*
CarrDP:#6 Err. Fieldname
max length =8.
MapDesc=<%s>
CarrDP:#7 Err. Field Desc.
max length =%d.
MapDesc=<%s>
You can use no more than 8 characters to define a field name and no
more than 24 to define the field description.
*
CarrierDP:8 Err. Length
required. MapDesc=<%s>
The length parameter must be set in the configuration file and it must be
set to a value greater than zero. Appendix A.3 provides additional
information.
*
CarrierDP:9 FYI. Duplicate
state=<%s>. Value has
been updated from=%d
to=%d
You have specified a discrete state word in the configuration file which
duplicates one already in the list. The driver uses the new value specified
in the CSV file to replace the previous value. Thus it is possible to
change the values for the driver’s default discrete state words. You can
safely ignore this message; it is for your information only.
CarrierDP:10 Err. No space.
Driver rejects value
state=<%s> value=%d
The driver has limited space to store discrete state keywords added in
the configuration file. The maximum is 150 words including the driver’s
defaults. Remove some of the keywords you have added to the
configuration file
*
CarrierDP:11 FYI. User
added value state=<%s>
value=%d
You can safely ignore this message; it is for your information only. Each
time a new discrete state word is added to the driver from the
configuration file, the driver reports the new word and its value.
CarrierDP:12 Err. Length
too short to store all.
MD=<%s>
The driver reports that the read table command resulted in more
variables being returned than you have reserved space for (with the
length parameter). Increase the length parameter.
