ERROR MONITORING AND ALARM OUTPUT
Rev D2, Page 25/29
The following table gives the errors which can both
be recognized by iC-MSB and enabled either for mes-
saging, output shutdown or protocol in the EEPROM.
Mask EMASKA stipulates that errors should be sig-
naled at pin ERR, mask EMASKO determines whether
the line driver outputs are to be shutdown or not
(with PDMODE setting a renewed power-on) and mask
EMASKE governs the storage of error events in the
EEPROM.

Error Event
Configuration error*: SDA or SCL pin error, no Ack
signal from EEPROM or invalid check sum
Excessive temperature warning
External system error
Level controller out of range (max. limit)
Level controller out of range (min. limit)
Signal clipping (excessive input level)
Loss of signal (poor input level or CH1/CH2 phase
out of range)
*) The line drivers remain high impedance (tristate)
when cycling power.

Error Protocol
Out of the errors pinpointed by EMASKE both the first
(ERR1) and last error (ERR2) which occur after the
iC-MSB is turned on are stored in the EEPROM. The
EEPROM also has a memory area in which all occur-
ring errors can be stored (ERR3). Only the fact that an
error has occurred can be recorded, with no informa-
tion as to the time and frequency of that error given.
The EEPROM memory can be used to statistically
evaluate the causes of system failure, for example.

I/O pin ERR
Pin ERR is operated by a current-limited open drain
output driver and has an internal pull-up which can be
shutdown. The ERR pin also acts as an input for ex-
ternal system error messaging and for switching iC-
MSB to test mode for which a voltage of greater than
VTMon must be applied. Interpretation of external
system error messaging and the phase length of the
message output can be set using EPH; the minimum
signaling duration for internal errors is adjusted using
EMTD(2:0).
