TROUBLE SHOOTING

MAPware 100 Does Not Transfer a Project to the OIT

If MAPware 100 halts during a download or indicates that the OIT is not connected:
1. Make sure that the serial cable is connected to the right PC and OIT ports.
2. Make sure that the OIT is powered and is in download mode.
3. Make sure that MAPware 100 is configured for the correct serial port.
4. Check cable connections and pinouts to ensure proper configuration.
5. If all else fails, save your project and then try rebooting your computer.

OIT Screen is Blank and the OIT is Beeping

If the OIT has a blank screen and is beeping, this indicates that an MAPware 100 project was

not completely transferred to the OIT. However, there is nothing wrong with the OIT.
The OIT is in download mode. Simply resend the project from MAPware 100 and the OIT will

restart normally.

The OIT Does Not Attach to the PLC

If the OIT is displaying a message indicating that it is attempting to attach to the PLC (and the

attachment successful message never appears), the OIT is not correctly programmed to

communicate with the PLC.
1. Make sure that the serial cable is connected to Port 1 on the OIT.
2. Look at your MAPware 100 project. The PLC selected using Start New Project is

displayed in the right hand corner of the screen. If the PLC selected is incorrect you

must start a new project. Refer to Step 3.
