Definitions for Message Status Bits on the General Tab
The table below lists the various status bits associated with the CEM
instruction as displayed in the CEM instruction setup screen.
• Timeout bit TO (word 0, bit 8) is set when the scanner module times
out the message either due to no response from the target device or due
to no reply being returned within the configured timeout period. The
ER bit will be set at the same time the TO bit is set. This bit is reset the
next time the message rung goes from false to true. Do not set or reset
this bit. It is informational only.
