Module Diagnostics and Troubleshooting

Introduction

Safety Considerations

Safety considerations are an important element of proper
troubleshooting procedures. Actively thinking about the safety of
yourself and others, as well as the condition of your equipment, is of
primary importance.

The following sections describe several safety concerns you should be
aware of when troubleshooting your control system.

Power Status Indicator

When the green status indicator on the analog module is illuminated,
it indicates that power is applied to the module and the module is
operating without error. A module that has sensed a fault condition or
is being held in reset by the system’s controller does not illuminate the
module’s status indicator even though power is still applied.

ATTENTION

Never reach into a machine to actuate a switch because
unexpected motion can occur and cause injury.

Remove all electrical power at the main power-disconnect
switches before checking electrical connections or
inputs/outputs causing machine motion.
