Fault Detection and Troubleclearing
Interpreting the controller status and determining if any corrective action is necessary can be done by
referring to Table 20 and Table 21. Actions to clear fault conditions usually consist of restarting the
controller, and if the fault reoccurs, replacing the suspected faulty component. It is recommended that you
replace controller components only after performing all other actions listed for that fault condition.
NOTE: The controller status POWER LED is used to indicate a number of faults. A diagnostic fault
causes the POWER LED to flash. The LED will flash a number of times to indicate the type of fault
detected. (See the column “Controller LED on CPU” in Table 20.) The LED flashes quickly a number of
times followed by a long off period. This is similar to a telephone answering machine which uses a
flashing LED to indicate the number of messages. This indication is helpful when the operator interface or
PC is not connected or is not communicating with the controller.
ATTENTION
When replacement of a controller component is necessary, refer to procedures in
Maintenance section.
