There should be no cable discontinuity or improper connection. Apply power to the units and perform the following checks: (1) The RDY (green) LED indicator must be lit If this indicator is not lit, it may be because the Fiber-optic FA-bus Type 2 module is not properly mounted to the base module.
B4-21 B4.6 Precautions When Applying Power When turning on the power supply to the main unit and subunits, follow the sequence below. First confirm that the main unit and all subunits are turned off. Then turn on the power supply to the main unit and the subunits simultaneously*, or turn on all subunits before turning on the main unit.
