CPU Unit’s ERR/ALM Indicator Lit or Flashing

 

Use the following table to troubleshoot the network when the DeviceNet Unit

 

is mounted and the CPU Unit’s ERR/ALM indicator is lit or flashing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Error

 

 

 

Probable cause

 

 

 

 

 

An I/O verification error occurred.

 

Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.

 

 

 

• Check the I/O table with the I/O Table Verification operation and correct it

 

 

 

 

if necessary. After correcting it, perform the I/O Table Create operation.

 

 

 

 

 

A CPU Bus Unit setting error occurred.

 

The CPU Bus Unit model registered in the I/O table does not match the

 

 

 

 

model of CPU Bus Unit actually mounted. Check the I/O table with the I/O

 

 

 

 

Table Verification operation and correct it if necessary.

 

 

 

• After correcting the I/O table, perform the I/O Table Create operation.

 

 

 

 

 

A CPU Bus error occurred.

 

Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.

 

 

 

• Restart the Unit. Replace the Unit if it doesn’t restart.

 

 

 

 

 

An I/O Bus error occurred.

 

Make sure that the Unit is connected properly.

 

 

 

• Restart the Unit. Replace the Unit if it doesn’t restart.

 

 

 

 

 

Note Refer to the CS1 Series CPU Unit Operation Manual (W339) or the CJ Series

 

CPU Unit Operation Manual (W393) for more details on these errors.

Remote I/O Communications Disabled

 

Use the following table to troubleshoot the network when remote I/O data

 

communications won’t start. (The I/O Data Communications Flag remains

 

OFF in Master Status 1.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Error

 

 

Probable cause

 

 

 

All of the DeviceNet Unit’s indicators are OFF.

 

• Check whether power is being supplied to the PC.

 

 

 

 

 

• Check whether the DeviceNet Unit is mounted in the Backplane cor-

 

 

 

 

 

rectly.

 

 

 

 

 

• When a watchdog timer (WDT) error has occurred in the PC, follow

 

 

 

 

 

the procedures described in the PC’s manual to correct the problem.

 

 

 

 

 

• All of a CS1W-DRM21 or CJ1W-DRM21 Unit’s indicators will be OFF

 

 

 

 

 

when a CPU Bus Unit error has occurred. Check for a CPU Bus Unit

 

 

 

 

 

error.

 

 

 

 

 

• Restart the Unit. Replace the Unit if it doesn’t restart.

 

 

 

 

The DeviceNet Unit’s MS indicator is ON and

 

 

• If the DeviceNet Unit’s 7-segment display is displaying an error code,

green, but the NS indicator remains OFF.

 

 

refer to the tables in 9-1 Troubleshooting with the DeviceNet Unit In-

(The NS indicator normally goes ON about 2 s

 

dicators.

after the MS indicator.)

 

 

• Make sure that the master’s unit number setting is correct.

 

 

 

 

 

• Make sure that the unit number is not duplicated on another Special

 

 

 

 

 

Unit.

 

 

 

 

 

• Check the I/O table with the I/O Table Verification operation and cor-

 

 

 

 

 

rect it if necessary. After correcting it, perform the I/O Table Create

 

 

 

 

 

operation.

 

 

 

 

 

Restart the Unit. Replace the Unit if it doesn’t restart.
