Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting

1. Meaning of LED status lights

POWER: Power Supply

RUN: Run

Fault: (flashing=program error; constantly on=hardware error)

BAT: Low battery

COMM: Communication Activity

2. Common fault handling

Unable to power on: Check wiring, voltage, polarity

Fault flashing: check for S: 6 fault code

Input no response: Check wiring, filtering, common terminal

Output not functioning: check load, power supply, suppressor

Communication failure: check baud rate, verify, address, mask

3. Fault clearing method

Automatic power on clearing

Fault subroutine clearing

Programming software clearing

Firmware upgrade

Using ControlFLASH software

Switch to default communication mode before upgrading (DCOMM light on)

Upgrading will clear user programs and must be backed up first

Upgrade failure will display a specific LED mode
