Card parameters

The properties associated with I/O cards are described by card parameters. These values give you information about the I/O card; they are not configurable. The following are the card parameters displayed in DeltaV Diagnostics:
  • EXIST — Boolean value that shows if a card is physically present at the given path (TRUE = card is present, False = card is not present).

  • HWREV — Text string containing the hardware revision level of the card at the given path. The card reports a zero if it does not support hardware revision reporting.

  • MODEL — Text description of the card model at the given path.

  • OINTEG — Represents the overall integrity of the card (0 = Good, 1 = Bad).

  • SNUM — Text string containing the serial number of the card at the given path. The card reports a zero if it does not support a serial number.

  • STATUS — Text description of the current condition of the card.

    The conditions are analyzed in the following order and if any of them exist, the appropriate integrity is determined and the appropriate status is displayed. If none of the below conditions exist, then the integrity is set to 0, and the status is set to Good.
