Interpret the Indicators 105
For 3-wire sensors:
• an open fault will be detected when an open occurs on either the
sensor-power wire, the sensor (-V) wire, or the high-current portion of
the input sensor field device.
• an open on the input-signal wire or low-current portion of the input
sensor field device will not be detected, and will be seen as an
off/inactive input sensor field device.
• a shorted circuit from the sensor-power wire to sensor common (-V) is
detected as short fault (no voltage at the sensor-power port).
• a shorted circuit from the sensor-power wire to the input-signal wire
cannot be detected. It will appear as an on/active input device.
• a shorted circuit from the input-signal wire to sensor common (-V), with
the input sensor field device in the off-state, cannot be detected. It will
appear as an off/inactive input sensor device.
• a shorted circuit from the input-signal wire to sensor common (-V), with
the input sensor field device in the on-state, is detected as a short fault if
the sensor field device can pass the sensor power short circuit current.
• a shorted 3-wire input sensor device may or may not be detected,
depending on which portion of the input sensor device is shorted.
• a shorted circuit to the DIN rail or chassis ground cannot be detected.
Diagnostic Functions for the 1794-IB16D
Each unused sensor port requires a dummy resistor to mask the channel
diagnostic function.
