RCM Status LEDS

The RCM's five status LEDs are always updated by the appropriate system. The module automatically turns off four of the LEDs (not the board OK LED) if they are not updated within 500ms.

These LEDs report the status of the health of the RCM and control status of the Hot Standby CPU Redundancy system. The status provided by these LEDs can also be read from the application program logic in an area of %S memory (%S33 - %S39). These status bits are read-only.

The term Local System below means the system where the RCM resides. Remote System is the system to which the RCM is connected via the communications cable. Each RCM has an associated local and remote system.

Board OK: This LED lights when diagnostics are complete and the RCM has been determined to be operating normally. It stays on unless the RCM fails.

Local System Ready: Indicates whether the local system is ready to become the active system in a redundant PLC configuration. If this LED is on, the local system has been configured for redundancy, is in RUN mode, and is able to take control of the redundant system if selected as the active system. The local system MUST set the state of this LED at least once each sweep; if it doesn't, the hardware forces the LED off after the timer expires.

Local System Active: Indicates whether the local system is the controlling (active) system in a redundancy system. The local system MUST set the state of this LED at least once during each sweep; if the local system fails to set the state of the LED, the hardware forces the LED off after the timer expires.

Remote System Ready: Indicates whether the remote system is ready to become the active system in a redundant PLC system. If the LED is on, the remote system has been configured for redundancy, is in RUN mode, and is able to take control of the redundant system if selected as the active system. The remote system MUST set the state of this LED at least once during each sweep; if the remote system fails to set the state of the LED, the hardware forces the LED off after the timer expires.

Remote System Active: Indicates whether the remote system is the controlling (active) system in a redundancy scheme. The remote system MUST set the state of this LED at least once during each sweep; if the remote system fails to set the state of the LED, the hardware forces the LED off after the timer expires.
