Displaying Field Control Faults
A Hand-held Monitor can display faults from a
Bus Interface Unit or Field Processor while
attached anywhere on the Genius bus.
1. From the HHM Main Menu, display the Field
Control main menu (instructions are on the
previous page).
F 1 : M o n i t o r
F 2 : C o n f i g u r a t i o n
2. From this menu, select F1 (Monitor). The fol-
lowing menu appears:
F 1 : M o n i t o r I / O
F 2 : F a u l t s
F 3 : P r e v i o u s M e n u
3. Select F2 (faults) to display fault information
for the Field Processor and its modules.
The Faults menu appears:
F 1 F i r s t 1 6 F l t s
F 2 L a s t 1 6 F l t s
F 3 P r e v i o u s M e n u
4. Press F1 to display the first set of 16 faults (one
fault at a time). For example:
S l o t # 1 F a u l t # 1
E X T R A I / O M O D U L E
< > e x i t

message: No Faults on the top line.

A. Press F4 (exit) to return to the screen shown
at the top if this page.
B. Press F2 (last 16 faults).
Clearing Field Control Faults
If faults are present, pressing the HHM Clear key
here has no effect. To clear faults from the
Hand-held Monitor you need to do the following:
1. Return to the HHM Main Menu.
2. Press F2 (Analyze).
3. Press F3 (Block./Bus Status).
4. Make the BIU or Field Processor the active de-
vice if it is not.
5. Press the Clear key.
Clearing faults from the Hand-held Monitor does
not clear faults at the host PLC. To keep the entire
system in step and up-to-date, fault clearing
should be performed from the host PLC.
