System Status (%S) References
System status references are pre-defined locations and nicknames. They can be included
in the application program to check for fault-related conditions. For example, status
references can be used to:
H Detect forces and overrides.
H Monitor the fault tables.
For a complete listing of %S references, see the Series 90-70 PLC Reference Manual.
Monitoring Forces and Overrides
The GMR software cannot detect point forces and overrides, and their use is not
recommended and may affect the results of autotesting. Forces and/or overrides can also
affect GMR voting of inputs and outputs. Therefore, if the system will include the use of
forces and/or overrides, it is important to include application program logic to detect them.
These system status references detect forces and overrides in an individual PLC:
%S0011
OVR_PRE
when set, indicates an override in %I, %Q,
%M, or %G memory.
%S0012
FRC_PRE
when set, indicates a force on a Genius point.
Monitoring the Fault Tables
These system status references are associated with the fault tables in an individual PLC:
%S0009
SY_FULL
when set, indicates that the PLC Fault Table is
full.
%S0010
IO_FULL
when set, indicates that the I/O Fault Table is
full.
%SC0010
SY_FLT
when set, indicates that an entry has been
placed in the PLC Fault Table.
%SC0011
IO_FLT
when set, indicates that an entry has been
placed in the I/O Fault Table.
%SC0012
SY_PRES
when set, indicates that there is presently at
least one entry in the PLC Fault Table.
%SC0013
IO_PRES
when set, indicates that there is presently at
least  one  entry in the I/O Fault Table.
