Communication Test
The PLC Communication test verifies that the communication card is
installed and functioning. If the test fails, the following message is
displayed in the status window at the top of the screen:
20314
PLC communication lost
When this occurs, the status window will continue to flash on and off until
the problem with the PLC controller is corrected.
Watchdog Test
The Watchdog test verifies that the watchdog circuit is able to reset the
terminal. If the PanelView 1200 terminal fails this test, it is a major fault,
and the terminal will require servicing by Allen-Bradley.
To start up your PanelView 1200 terminal in Configuration mode, set the
Mode Select Keyswitch to Configure and connect the power.
You’ll want to start up in Configuration mode until you’ve configured the
terminal and downloaded your application file. When in Configuration
mode, your PanelView 1200 terminal will appear as a faulted rack to your
PLC controller.
All major faults detected in Configuration mode will be displayed in the
Minor Terminal Fault Window and can be cleared by pressing the fault
window’s Clear button.
