Issue
The purpose of this resolution is to inform STB users of a firmware upgrade for the STBART0200 RTD/TC/mV module. This upgrade addresses the issue where in extreme rare instances the module would display a blinking ERR LED and both input readings would be zero. At that time 0x81 was displayed in a channel Status Register.
A/D Converter fault states resulting from exposure to EMI levels far greater than those defined by test standard EN61131-2 have been overcome by implementing a retry mechanism in the modules firmware.
