Hardware Description

This chapter describes the Linear Positioning Module hardware, as well as other
hardware required for a positioning system.

Figure 4.1 shows the three indicators on the module.

When you first power up the module, all three indicators turn on for about one
second. Next, the LOOP 1 ACTIVE and LOOP 2 ACTIVE indicators turn off
while the module performs diagnostics. If the diagnostics discover a module
fault, the red FAULT indicator stays on and the module remains inactive. When
the programmable controller is in run mode, the indicators behave as follows:

FAULT - a red indicator that is normally off. The indicator turns on if there

is a module fault in one loop or both loops. See Chapter 11 for more
information on module faults.

LOOP 1 ACTIVE - a green indicator that is on when loop 1 is active. The

indicator blinks if a fault occurs on loop 1 and turns off if loop 1 is inactive.

LOOP 2 ACTIVE - a green indicator that is on when loop 2 is active. The

indicator blinks if a fault occurs on loop 2 and turns off if loop 2 is inactive.
