Section 4. Configuration and Operation
Maintenance Alarms
A Maintenance alarm indicates that the device or some part of the device
needs maintenance soon. If the condition is ignored, the device will eventually
fail. There are five parameters associated with FD_MAINT_ALM, they are
described below.
FD_MAINT_MAP
The FD_MAINT_MAP parameter contains a list of conditions indicating
that the device or some part of the device needs maintenance soon. The
priority is not the same as the MAINT_PRI parameter described below. It is
hard coded within the device and is not user configurable.
Note that maintenance alarms are not enabled by default for the
Rosemount 2230.
FD_MAINT_MASK
The FD_MAINT_MASK parameter will mask any of the failed conditions
listed in FD_MAINT_MAP. A bit on means that the condition is masked out
from alarming and being broadcast to the host through the alarm
parameter.
FD_MAINT_PRI
FD_MAINT_PRI designates the alarming priority of the FD_MAINT_ALM,
see “Alarm Priority” on page 4-32. The default is 0 and the recommended
values are 3 to 7.
FD_MAINT_ACTIVE
The FD_MAINT_ACTIVE parameter displays which of the conditions is
active.
FD_MAINT_ALM
An alarm indicating that the device needs maintenance soon. If the
