MB+ ACT Flash
Patterns

This table provides the patterns that the MB+ ACT indicator will flash to indicate the
status of the Modbus Plus node.

Continued on next page

Pattern

Meaning

6 flashes/s

This is the normal operating state for the node. It is
receiving and passing the network token. All nodes on a
healthy network flash this pattern.

1 flash/s

The node is offline just after power-up or after exiting the
6 flashes/s mode. In this state, the node monitors the
network and builds a table of active nodes. After being in
this state for 5s, the node attempts to go to its normal
operating state, indicated by 6 flashes/s.

2 flashes, then OFF for 2s

The node detects the token being passed among the other
nodes, but never receives the token. Check the network for
an open circuit or defective termination.

3 flashes, then OFF for 1.7s

The node is not detecting any tokens being passed among
the other nodes. It periodically claims the token but cannot
find another node to which to pass it. Check the network for
an open circuit or defective termination.

4 flashes, then OFF for 1.4s

The node has detected a valid message from a node using
a network address identical to its own address. The node
remains in this state for as long as it continues to detect the
duplicate address. If the duplicate address is not detected
for 5s, the node changes to its 1flash/s mode.

ON

Indicates an invalid node address.

OFF

Possible fault with Modbus Plus Option Adapter.
