Troubleshooting Using Indicators

 

 

 

Section 9-1

Node Cannot Participate

The following table describes the LNK and M/A indicators when a node can-

in Data Link

not participate in the data links.

 

 

Data link participation depends on the Controller Link Unit operating normally

 

and participating in the Network. Refer to Troubleshooting with RUN, ERC,

 

ERH and INS Indicators earlier in this section and check Unit operation before

 

using the following table.

Note

Stop the data link from the node at which the LNK indicator is lit (indicating

 

active data links). Data links cannot be stopped from nodes which do not have

 

active data links.

 

 

 

Troubleshooting of Other Errors

To configure a network that uses a node address higher than 32, all nodes must be CS1W-CLK21-V1, CJ1W-CLK21-V1, or 3G8F7-CLK21-V1. The Wired Network 62 Node Enable Bit in the DM Parameters Area must also be turned ON (62 nodes max.) for all nodes. If the nodes are set differently, the network will not be configured correctly. If the settings are incorrect, the follow- ing problems will occur.
