The Ethernet Interface will normally transition from the Power±Up State to the Opera- tional State without entering any other state.

If there is a problem with the Soft Switch data, however, the Ethernet Interface will tran- sition automatically to the Soft Switch Entry utility (see Appendix C for instructions). And if you have not previously downloaded a station configuration to the Ethernet In- terface, the Ethernet Interface will transition automatically to the Loader utility (see Pro- cedure 4 for instructions). Also, the operator may manually cause the Ethernet Interface to enter the Field Network Test utility.

Powering-Up the Ethernet Interface

Follow the procedure below to verify that the Ethernet Interface is operating correctly.

1.Power±up the PLC. This will initiate a series of diagnostic tests.

Upon power±up the Module OK LED blinks, On Line and Status OK LEDs are OFF.

2.Observe the local Station Manager screen if connected. If power±up is successful, then a Station Manager message similar to the following will be displayed, normally within 15 seconds
