Reset Faults
There are various ways to reset faults on an ArmorBlock module.
•
cycle power to the module by disconnecting, then reconnecting the
DeviceNet connector
•
use the Reset Faulted I/O feature on the parameter screen
•
use the explicit message program control feature
Note: This module contains a circuit to protect the DeviceNet power supply from short
circuits in an attached sensor or sensor cable. If you connect a sensor while the
module is powered, the surge current produced by the sensor can cause the
module to fault. This operation is normal. If this occurs, reset the module.
Reset Faults Online Using the Parameter Screen
To reset faults online, return to the network screen and proceed as
follows:
1. Click on the faulted device.
2. Then click on the Configure
Device button.
