3.7.4

The Warning? Interface Job

This job reads-out an 8-bit byte (the Warning Flags) which gives infor-

mation about error conditions which affect the efficient operation of the
1309. The 1309 is still able to operate, but the error should be rectified

as soon as possible. The Warning Flag byte is shown in Table 3.4.

Warning Flags are set when either the 1309’s self-check procedures or
the Check_System interface job identify an error condition. This in turn

sets bit 6 of the Status Byte (generating a service request, if enabled)
to indicate that an error condition exists. The Warning? job can then

give more information about the cause of the error condition.

Example:

Warning?<LF>

Outputs the Warning Flags from the
1309. A “1” indicates that the flag is

set; a “0” indicates the flag is not
set.

The conditions which cause the Warning Flags to be set, and the appro-

priate action to be taken, are dealt with in turn below.

Reset Done Flag

Indicates that the 1309 has completed a reset, following either the Re-
set_System interface job (

section 3.6.2

) or switching on the 1309. This

flag is reset when the Warning Flags are read-out from the 1309.

Temperature Flag

Is set when the internal temperature of the 1309 is outside the range

+2°C to +60°C. The 1309 must not be used until the internal tempera-
ture is within the normal operating limits of +5°C to +40°C. This flag is

reset when the internal temperature is again within the normal operat-
ing limits, or by resetting the 1309, or switching the 1309 off and the

on.
