Critical and Noncritical Errors
Noncritical module errors are recoverable. Channel errors (over-range or
under-range errors) are noncritical. Noncritical error conditions are indicated
in the module input data table. Noncritical configuration errors are indicated
by the extended error code.
See Table C.5 on page C-7.
Critical module errors are conditions that prevent normal or recoverable
operation of the system. When these types of errors occur, the system leaves
the run mode of operation.
Critical module errors are indicated in Table C.5 on page C-7.
