Word 8
Bits 00-03
Underrange bits (U) for individual channels (4-20mA current input only)-
Bit 00 corresponds to input channel 0, bit 01 corresponds to input channel 1,
and so on. When set (1), indicates either a broken or open input wire, or input
current at or below 4mA.
Bits 04-14
(04-16)
Not used – set to 0.
Bit 15 (17)
Power Up bit .- This bit is set to 1 when all bits in the configuration
register (write word 0) are 0 (unconfigured state). The configuration
register can be cleared by either a reset, or by the user writing all zeroes to it.
