Allen Bradley PIDE Status Words

[Jim ManleyModeratorKarma: 262Rank: Jedi]

Does anyone know where I can find a list of what the AB PIDE status words mean?  I’m working on a model and the PIDE is locked into Manual mode and displaying a value of 16#0000_0061 in the Status 1 parameter.

I’ve searched around the internet and Rockwell’s tech support site but am drawing a blank.

Thanks,

Jim

Hi Jim.

The bit mappings for this “Status1” word can be found in the builtin Studio 5000 help file. I’ve created a little PDF for your convenience attached here. A value of 61 Hex is equal to the following binary 0110 0001. So you have three flags set in this status word: bit 0, bit 5 and bit 6. Looks like its a configuration problem with your Setpoint Limits. The information for the Status1 word information starts on Page 7.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the response.  I actually stumbled across the help file about 10 minutes after I submitted my original post.  Funny how it works that way.
