No power to module

Possible short on the module

LED driver failure

Check power to I/O chassis. Cycle as necessary.

Replace module.

Red FLT LED ON and

Green RUN LED is ON

Microprocessor, oscillator or EPROM failure

When red LED is on, the watchdog timer has timed out and backplane communications are terminated. Your user program should monitor

communication.

Status Reported in Word 1

Design your program to monitor status bits in the lower byte of word 1, and to
take appropriate action depending on your application requirements. You may
also want to monitor these bits while troubleshooting with your industrial
terminal. The module sets a bit (1) to indicate it has detected one or more of the
following conditions as shown in Table 8.B.
