3.1Types ofmessage
Adifferentiationismade between fourtypesof message:
Alarm isusedintheDL210 for"Restart"and inthe encodermode.
Warning affectsallsignalswhicharesoimportant that the usermust be informed
about thesignaland must thereforeacknowledge it.
Report isless "important"than "Warning"and doesnot thereforeneed acknowledg-
ing.
Information isonlyneededforinternalfunctionsforthe labelling of operating states
(usuallytimemodes).
3.2Messageregister
3.2.1 Momentarystatus„Stat“
The "momentarystatus" containsonlythe currentmessages. The messages: Alarm,Warn-
ing and Report areenteredinthisregister(refertochapter3.3).If the causeofamessage is
no longeractive,itisautomaticallydeleted fromthisregister.Thismeansthat aquick overview
of the currentoperating statesispossible.
3.2.2 Statusregister „SReg“
The "statusregister" containsallactiveand passed messages(alarmsand warnings)which
havenot yet beenacknowledged.Thereisthenthe possibilityof beingabletocheck mes-
sagesthathavealreadypassed (refertochapter3.3). If thecauseof amessage isno longer
active,it can bedeleted fromthisregister(refertochapter3.4).

5Batteryreplacement
F Sothat no dataislost, amanualbackupmustbe carried outunder"Service"–"Save"
(Save, address: 1:131). The date, timeandallcounterreadingsarethen saved ina
non-volatilememory.
(1)Open up the front coverwiththe electronics and swiveldownwards. The batteryisnowac-
cessibleon theCPUboard.
(2)Check whetherthe sizeand identificationnumberof the newbatterymatchthoseon cali-
bration coverplateforthe fitted devicebattery. Normally, the devicebatteryhasablack
connecting cable.
(3) If one ortwomodembatteriesarepre-
sent (hereawhiteconnecting cableis
used)andif theyhavetobe replaced,
then thismust be carriedout first.
(3.1) Pulloff the existing modembatteryorbatteriesfromthe terminalsX12 and X13 and
plugon thenewbatteryorbatteriestotheseterminals.The connectorsarefitted with
polarityreversalprotection andamech. interlock.
(3.2) Connect thenewdevicebatterytothe freeconnectorX9orX10.The connectorsare
fittedwithpolarityreversalprotectionand amech.interlock.
(4)Nowthe olddevicebatterycanbe pulledoff terminalX9(X10).
(5)Reclosethe device(makesurethatthe cableisnot pinched).
(6)Check inthe displaythatno message "3" isentered under"Status"!
(7)The capacityof thenewdevicebatteryminusabout 20%must be re-enteredunder"Ser-
vice-"Batterycapacity"(BAT.C, address:1:1F3)
Batteryidentitynumber:73015774 -->EntryintheDL210:13,0Ah
Remaining batteryservicelife(display:„Bat.R“): 150 Monate
Batteryidentitynumber:73016294 -->EntryintheDL210:1,6Ah
Remaining batteryservicelife(display:„Bat.R“): 18 Monate
The entryisalsoessentialeven withthesamecapacityvalue,sothatthe computation of the
remainingbatteryservicelifeisre-initiated.
(8)The voltage figure 3.6V shouldbe displayed under"Service" –"Modembatteryvoltage"
(VBatM, address: 4:410).
