The 1769-SM1 module is not 
powered.
The channel is not connected 
to a DPI or SCANport-
supported drive.
The port ID is not valid.
• Apply power to the 1769-SM1 module.
• Apply power to the DPI or 
SCANport-supported drive.
• Connect the 1769-SM1 module to the
drive using a 1202-C* communications

Flashing 
Red
An error occurred during the 
initialization/logon sequence.
A ping timeout error occurred.
A status timeout error 
occurred.
The channel was enabled to 
pass I/O to the drive, and then 
was disabled.
• Verify that the 1202-C* communications
cable is securely connected.
• Cycle power to the drive.
• Avoid disabling a channel after enabling 
it to pass I/O.
Solid Red
The drive has refused an I/O 
connection from the 
1769-SM1 module.
Another peripheral is using 
the same DPI/SCANport port 
as the 1769-SM1 module.
The DPI/SCANport port 
number has changed or is not 
valid.
A CAN bus-off error occurred.
Important: Cycle power to the drive after 
making any of the following corrections:
• Verify that all 1202-C* communications 
cables are securely connected and not 
damaged. Replace cables if necessary.
• Verify that the drive supports Datalinks.
• Configure the 1769-SM1 module to use 
a Datalink that is not already being used 
by another peripheral.
