Event ID Not Used (Reserved)
ABB · ACS880
What does 0x0005 mean?
Similar to 0x0001, this event code is reserved and currently not utilized by the system for specific application events. Its presence points to an event ID being triggered that is a placeholder or has no active definition. This could indicate a misconfigured event source.
Common Causes
- Similar to 0x0001, an event ID that is reserved for internal system use or future expansion has been triggered.
- An older version of an application program might be trying to access or set an event ID that has since been designated as reserved in newer firmware versions.
- Inadvertent memory access or a firmware bug causes the system to generate an event notification with a placeholder ID (0x0005).
