3. Implementation of the communication option cards

Option card fault

The [internal com. link] (ILF-)fault appears when the following serious problems occur:

-Hardware fault on the option card

-Dialog fault between the option card and the drive

The [Internal link fault 1] (ILF1) diagnostic parameter can be used to obtain more detailed information about the origin of the last [internal com. link] (ILF) fault:

This parameter can be accessed on the graphic display terminal only, in the [1.10 DIAGNOSTICS] (DGt-)menu, [MORE FAULT INFO] (AFI-).

When the External Fault function is used via a communication card, the Altivar 38 would display EPF, but the Altivar 61 now displays EPF2.

When the Fast Stop function is used via a communication card, the Altivar 38 would display RDY, but the Altivar 61 now displays FST.

It is essential to follow the Altivar 38 internal variables manual when the Altivar 61 is being used in 8 serie mode. If not, migration may not proceed smoothly.
