Fault Reporting in
Integer Mode
The illustration provides an overview of the fault reporting process in
integer mode.

15 = AnalogGroupFault
12 = Calibrating
11 = Cal Fault
14 and 13 are not used by
1756-OF4 or 1756-OF8
7 = Ch7Fault
6 = Ch6fault
5 = Ch5Fault
4 = Ch4Fault
Output in Hold conditions
(even numbered bits) must
be monitored here.

10 = Ch2InHold
9 = Ch3OpenWire
8 = Ch3InHold
IMPORTANT: Bits 0…7 not used on 1756-OF4
If set, any bit in the Channel Fault word, also sets
the Analog Group Fault in the Module Fault word.
When the module is calibrating, all
bits in the Channel Fault word are set.
