At a Glance
The debug screen for a standard profile reuses the elements of the other devices available on the Fipio bus.
(
)
However, certain elements are specific to this screen. The remainder of this document only covers the part specific to standard profiles.

Module area
Function
The tab in the foreground indicates the mode in progress (Debug in this example). Each mode can be selected using the respective tab. The available modes are:
Debug which can be accessed only in online mode,
Fault (channel level) accessible only in online mode,
Configuration,

Gives a reminder of the device’s shortened name.
In the same area there are 3 LEDs which indicate the module’s operating mode:
RUN indicates the operating status of the module,
ERR indicates an internal fault in the module,
I/O indicates a fault from outside the module or an application fault.
Channel area Is used:
By clicking on the reference number, to display the tabs:
Description which gives the characteristics of the device.
I/O Objects (see EcoStruxure™ Control Expert, Operating Modes) which is used to presymbolize the input/output objects,
Fault which shows the device faults (in online mode).
General parameters area
Parameters in progress area
Channel: single channel for a standard profile.
Symbol: name of the channel defined by the user (using the variable editor).
This area is used to display the type of task (MAST or FAST) in which the channel implicit exchange objects are exchanged.
In cases where for the standard profile the input bits, the %IW input words or the %QW output words exist, this area displays them.
A Reference, a Symbol and a Value are associated to each word.
For each value the contextual menu can be used to select the display base for the value of the selected word.
Three types are available:
Decimal,
Hexadecimal,
Binary.
For FRD ••• standard profile, the Error column provides direct access to the diagnostics for each channel when these are faulty (indicated by the indicator lamp built into the diagnostics access button, which turns red).
