When accessing Instruction Help for a GSV instruction in Studio 5000, users can find a list of module faults by clicking on the GSV/SSV Objects link and selecting the Module link. Each module fault is detailed in a table with columns for Code, String, Explanation, and Possible Causes/Solutions. However, the table does not include a column for FaultInfo. To find information on FaultInfo for each module fault code (INT), users can refer to the GSV/SSV Programming Example link provided on the same page. In Example 1, the FaultCode for the module can be found in disc_in_2_info.FaultCode and the FaultInfo in disc_in_2_info.FaultInfo. For a comprehensive reference on module fault codes and associated fault info (DINT), users may need to consult additional resources. Is there a specific table available for easy access to this information?
In Studio 5000, when accessing Instruction Help for a GSV instruction and navigating to the GSV/SSV Objects link, followed by clicking on the Module link, you will find a list of links for module faults. Each link opens a table displaying Code, String, Explanation, and Possible Causes/Solutions columns, but no column for FaultInfo. The GSV/SSV Programming Example link provides insight into FaultCode and FaultInfo for modules. However, the absence of a FaultInfo column raises a question on how to determine the associated fault info (DINT) for each module fault code (INT). Is there a resource or table that correlates module fault info with fault codes? The FaultCode and FaultInfo components are part of the HEX code seen in module manuals and are not unique identifiers.
While the exact table you're asking for doesn't seem to be available directly in Studio 5000, I'd suggest checking out the manufacturer's website or technical documents. Often, they will have compiled information like this into a comprehensive chart or guide that you can easily reference. This info might also be found in user manuals. It's a bit of an extra step, but it can definitely be a lifesaver when troubleshooting!
Indeed, those who work regularly with Studio 5000 may find the lack of a "FaultInfo" column in the table within the instruction help a bit inconvenient. However, you can check the "FaultInfo" by using the GSV/SSV Programming Example link as you mentioned. Considering the diversity of faults and the varying information that accompanies them, a table containing all fault info might be too exhaustive and difficult to compile and navigate through. I think it's a good idea though, to raise this issue with the developers or, if capable, create an auxiliary tool that could pull out and collate this information into one user-friendly source. It may also be helpful to remember the more common fault codes and info points to increase efficiency in handling these issues.
I can understand why it would be helpful to have a comprehensive table including FaultInfo in the Instruction Help for Studio 5000. While I'm not aware of a specific table that's readily available, you could potentially create a custom reference by using the information given on the GSV/SSV Programming Example link. Take note of the fault codes and corresponding FaultInfo, and fill in your own table for future reference. While it might be a bit of work initially, it'll save time in the long run. Also, reaching out to Rockwell Automation's support might be beneficial - they could have more resources or possibly create this specific table if requested.
While there isn't a specific table that I'm aware of, you could potentially create your own reference by consolidating the information from the GSV/SSV Objects link and the GSV/SSV Programming Example link. Yes, it might involve some manual work, but doing so would allow you to have a customized table with FaultInfo included at your fingertips. Another recourse could be to reach out to Rockwell Automation's customer support; they're usually pretty helpful and might already have something that fits this requirement or guide you to appropriate resources.
