Chapter 2

Installing the Control Coprocessor

Relay Contact Output Modules Product Data, publication 1771-2.181, for
more information.

The control coprocessor performs the following functions at power up:

bootstrap

routine

OS-9

initialization

A-B initialization (if direct-connect)

invokes either a user start-up program or the OS-9 shell

(command interpreter)

hardware initialization (RAM disk, OS-9 clock, serial ports)

fault-relay

energizing

You will get the following normal indications on the main module after
power up:

CPU LED blinks green four times and then remains lit green

BATT LED blinks red four times and then is not lit (this indicates a

properly charged battery)

You will get the following normal indication on the optional serial
expander module after power up: the four character positions on the
ASCII display blink four times and then are not lit.

When removing a main module in direct-connect or standalone mode, first
verify that power is off to the 1771 I/O chassis; then, remove the module
by reversing the installation procedure. If in direct-connect mode, remove
the module from the PLC-5 programmable controller.

When removing a serial expander module, first verify that power is off to
the 1771 I/O chassis; then, release the locking tab and remove the module
from the I/O chassis.

After you complete the installation and powerup of the control
coprocessor, proceed to Chapter 3. Chapter 3 instructs you on how
to connect a programming terminal to the control coprocessor and
establish communication.
