14.4.2 Controller Fault Descriptions and Corrective Actions

Each fault explanation contains a fault description and instructions to correct the fault. Many
fault descriptions have multiple causes. In these cases, the error code and additional fault
information are used to distinguish among fault conditions sharing the same fault description.

Byte 8 of the fault extra data contains a
reason code indicating what feature is not
supported.
Configuration of LAN module does not match
modem type or configuration programmed by
softswitch utility.
Directed control data lengths do not match.
This LAN Interface module has the same
MAC address as another device on the LAN.
The module is off the network.
Previous duplicate MAC address has been
resolved. The module is back on the network.

Comments
Generated by the operating software
of the CPU. They occur at many
different points of system operation.
When a fatal fault occurs, the CPU
immediately transitions to Stop-Halt.
The only activity permitted when the
CPU is in this mode is
communications with the
programmer.
The only method of clearing this
condition is to cycle power on the
controller with the Energy Pack
disconnected.
Occurs during the store of programs
or blocks and other data to the CPU.
The stream of commands and data
for storing programs or blocks and
data starts with a special start-of-
sequence command and terminates
with an end-of-sequence command.
Used for recording conditions in the
system that may provide valuable
information to Technical Support.
Recommended Correction
▪
Update the module to a
revision that supports the
feature.
▪
Change the module
configuration.
▪
Correct configuration of
modem type.
▪
Consult the LAN Interface
manual for configuration
setup.
Refer to Fault Extra Data for
DCD length mismatch on page
279.
▪
Change the module's MAC
address.
▪
Change the other device's
MAC address.
Informational. No correction
required.
