Error Message Explanation
Carrier:#15 Err. Alarm
commands not supported.
Carrier:#16 Err. Alarm
commands not supported.
The server does not support alarm functions. Polls beginning
AV or RA produce these errors. Re-configure your client not to
request this information.
§
Carr:#17 Err. MD=<%s>
discrete state word not
recognized.
On the line immediately following this error the driver reports
the response that generated the error. The driver will store a
value that is the ASCII code for the first character of the
unrecognized word. Add a new discrete state word to the .CSV
file as described in Appendix A.4.
§
CarrDL:#18 FYI. Timeout
probably too short. Read
Manual.
This message may be ignored if your communications are
operating reliably. Read Appendix A.5 for additional information
on timing considerations. The message is printed when the
driver detects that the configuration requires that a whole table
be read and the timeout value is set below the recommended
minimum of 15s for this operation.
CarrDL:#19 Err. Diagnostic.
Call Support.
This error message should only be produced by FST’s QA
testing procedure. If you see this error, call Tech Support after
taking a log. Instructions for taking a log may be found in the
Trouble Shooting Guide.
CarrDL:#20* FYI. Invalid
Time(%02d:%02d) being
written. MD=%s
The message is printed once and suppressed for subsequent
occurrences. The message is printed when writing a time to a
Carrier Device which is invalid as it is greater than 23:59.
Check the value in the Data Array being used for the write. It’s
possible an upstream device sent an invalid value. The driver
sends the message with the invalid time and it’s up to the
Carrier device to reject the setting.
CarrDL:#21* FYI. Invalid
Time(%02d:%02d) being
stored. MD=%s
The message is printed once and suppressed for subsequent
occurrences. The message is printed when the Server is
required to store an invalid time (>23.59). Check the value in
the Data Array being used for the write. The data is stored
despite the warning.
CarrDL:#23* Err. CarrDL
device reported errors.
Check exposed stats 8-23.
These errors occur when communications are operating
correctly but the CarrDL device cannot respond to the poll.
The reason error is reported in the driver stats (See Appendix
C.1) Stat #9, reports the error number of the most recent error
reported. The message is printed once and then suppressed.
These errors are most commonly produced when a table
name/ variable name does not exist or is mis-spelled
CarrDL:#22* FYI. Read
notes for #22 in Manual.
MD=%s
DOW and times require that the Data_Type be specified when
writing to enable the Driver to convert the value extracted from
the Data Array for formatting in the write message. This error
is printed if the table name or the field name contain the sub-
string “OCC”, the function is a write, and a Data_Type has not
been specified. In most cases the write will be rejected by the
Carrier device or the value may not be what you expect. Refer
to Section 4.4.7 for more information.
§
Correct the error by editing the configuration CSV file, downloading the corrected file to the FieldServer
and then resetting the FieldServer.
