4.8.3  Emergency message, reaction 
  If a slave on the system bus suffers a fault, it transmits the emer
g
ency tele
g
ram. The
emer
g
ency tele
g
ram marks the node ID for the identification of the failed node via its
identifier and the existing fault message via its data contents (8 bytes). 
  After a fault has been acknowledged on the slave, the latter again transmits an emer-
gency telegram with the data content zero. 
  The emergency telegram has the identifier 128 + node ID ( = 129 ... 191) 
  The system bus master evaluates the emergency telegrams of the slaves. Its reaction
to an emergency telegram can be set with 
Emergency Reaction 989. 
  Operation mode  Function 
  0 -Error  The system bus master receives the emergency 
telegram and switches-off 
  1 -No Error  The Emergency Telegram is displayed as a warn-
ing 
  Operation mode - parameter 989 = 0 – Error 
Behavior of the system bus master in 
Emergency Reaction 989 = 0 / Error: 
  As soon as the system bus master receives an emer
g
ency tele
g
ram, it also switches to
failure mode and reports the failed subscriber on the basis of its ID via the kind o
f
error. Only the subscriber is reported, not the cause of the error. 
The fault message on the system bus master via 
Current error 260 is 21nn with nn
= node ID (hexadecimal) of the slave in which a fault switch-off exists. 
In addition, the system bus master reports the warning Sysbus (0x2000) via the pa-
rameter 
Warnings 270 Bit 13. 
  If a fault switch-off occurs on a number of slaves, the first slave to transmit its emer-
gency telegram is displayed on the system bus master. 
  Operation mode - parameter 989 = 1 – No Error 
Behavior of system bus master in the case of 
Emergency Reaction 989 = 1 / No Er-
ror: 
  As soon as the system bus master receives an emer
g
ency tele
g
ram, it reports the
warning Sysbus (0x2000) via the parameter 
Warnings 270 Bit 13. 
  Note:  In both cases, the Boolean variable SysbusEmer
g
ency with source number
730 is set to TRUE in the system bus master. It can be used in the system
bus master and (in transmission via a TxPDO) in the slaves for a defined
shutdown. 
SysbusEmergency is also set if the system bus master breaks down. 
Resetting of SysbusEmergency is done with the fault acknowledgment.
