To clear the condition, follow these steps:

1 Turn off power to the rack

2 Remove the card from the rack

3 Verify that all jumpers are set correctly

4 If the module requires a Compact Flash card, verify that the card is installed

correctly

5 Re-insert the card in the rack and turn the power back on

6 Verify the configuration data being transferred to the module from the

CompactLogix or MicroLogix processor.

If the module's OK LED does not turn green, verify that the module is inserted

completely into the rack. If this does not cure the problem, contact ProSoft

Technology Support.

4.2.2 Troubleshooting

Use the following troubleshooting steps if you encounter problems when the

module is powered up. If these steps do not resolve your problem, please contact

ProSoft Technology Technical Support.

Processor Errors

Problem Description Steps to take

Processor Fault

Verify that the module is plugged into the slot that has been configured for

the module.

Verify that the slot in the rack configuration has been set up correctly in the

ladder logic.

Processor I/O LED

flashes

This indicates a problem with backplane communications. Verify that all

modules in the rack are configured in the ladder logic.

Module has a power supply distance rating of 2 on Compact Logix. The

module must be within 2 slots of the power supply on Compact Logix, or that

the MicroLogix backplane can supply the 800ma required for the module.

Module Errors

Problem Description Steps to take

BP ACT LED remains

off or blinks slowly

This indicates that backplane transfer operations are failing. Connect to the

module's Configuration/Debug port to check this.

To establish backplane communications, verify the following items:

 The processor is in Run mode.

 The backplane driver is loaded in the module.

 The module is configured for read and write block data transfer.

 The ladder logic handles all read and write block situations.

 The module is configured in the processor.

OK LED remains red

The program has halted or a critical error has occurred. Connect to the

Configuration/Debug port to see if the module is running. If the program has

halted, turn off power to the rack, remove the card from the rack and re-

insert the card in the rack, and then restore power to the rack.
