Troubleshooting
Chapter Objectives
Use this chapter to help troubleshoot your serial communications system
using the LED indicators on the front of the device (Figure 4.1). The
communications module is a non-serviceable device that should be
returned to Allen-Bradley for replacement when a major fault exists that is
attributable to the communications module itself.

ATTENTION: Servicing energized industrial control equipment
can be hazardous. Electrical shock, burns, or unintentional
actuation of controlled industrial equipment may cause death or
serious injury. Follow the safety-related practices of NFPA 70E,
Electrical Safety for Employee Workplaces, when working on or
near energized equipment. Do not work alone on energized
equipment.
ATTENTION: Do not attempt to defeat or override fault circuits.
The cause of a fault indication must be determined and corrected
before attempting operation. Failure to correct a drive or system
malfunction may result in personal injury and/or equipment
damage due to uncontrolled machine system operation.
