PNIO Status (Error Code)

The ‎PNIOStatus‎ is an 8-digit hexadecimal code that is not part of the PROFINET diagnosis in the strict sense. The ‎PNIOStatus‎ is an error/abort code for failed services and is issued, for example, in the case of log errors or failed connection attempts. The user usually encounters it only when using an acyclic read/write service (‎RDREC / WRREC‎) or when establishing a connection to a device.

The value is interpreted as a 4-byte array with the following elements:
`‎ErrorCode‎`	0x40	CODESYS	CODESYS-specific errors, see: `‎CommFB.ErrorCode‎`
	0x81	PNIO	Errors which are not otherwise described here.
	0xCF	RTA error	Error, connection termination
	0xDA	AlarmAck	Error in alarm handling
	0xDB	IODConnectRes	RPC-PDU¹
	0xDC	IODReleaseRes	RPC-PDU¹
	0xDD	IODControlRes	IOXControlRes (RPC-PDU¹)
	0xDE	IODReadRes	Errors in acyclic reading (RPC², only with ErrorDecode=PNIORW).
	0xDF	IODWriteRes	Errors in acyclic writing (RPC², only with ErrorDecode=PNIORW).
`‎ErrorDecode‎`	0x80	PNIORW	Used in the context of errors in acyclic reading. Equivalent to IEC 61158-6-3 (DPV1).
	0x81	PNIO	In the context of remaining services or for internal errors such as RPC² errors.
`‎ErrorCode1‎`			Value of `‎ErrorCode1‎` (see table)
`‎ErrorCode2‎`			Value of `‎ErrorCode2‎` (see table)

Table 498: ErrorCode1
For `‎ErrorDecode‎` = PNIORW, see `‎CommFB.ErrorCode_RW‎`.
For `‎ErrorDecode‎` = PNIO
0x01–0x0D	Connect parameter error.
0x14–0x38	Other PDU related errors.
0x3D	Device protocol machine.
0x3E	Controller protocol machine.
0x3F	Controller protocol machine for discovery, IP, and name assignment.
0x40–0xD3	Other state machine errors.
0xFD	Protocol errors: Abort reason See table `‎ErrorCode2‎`

Table 499: ErrorCode2
For `‎ErrorDecode‎` = PNIO and `‎ErrorCode1‎` = 0xFD
`‎0x05‎`	AR consumer DHT expired.
`‎0x06‎`	AR CMI timeout
`‎0x0B‎`	AR alarm.ind (err)
`‎0x0D‎`	AR abort.req
`‎0x20‎`	DCP¹, reset to factory or factory reset.
`‎0x28‎`	Remote application ready timeout expired.

Table 500: Examples
0x81813F02	DCP no RealStationname The device with the specified station name was not found.
0x81813F03	DCP multiple RealStationName Multiple devices with the same station name were found.
0x81813F06	DCP set error The DCP set command has failed (for example, IP address or station name).
0x81813F07	ARP multiple IP addresses The IP address is assigned multiple times: network error.
0xCF81FD05	AR consumer DHT expired The send clock could not be maintained: connection termination.
