TROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter describes errors that may occur in the use of a temperature input module and those troubleshooting.
3.1
Troubleshooting with the LEDs
Check the state of the LEDs to narrow down the possible causes of the trouble. This step is the first diagnostics before using
the engineering tool.
A state of a temperature input module can be checked with the RUN LED, ERR LED, and ALM LED. The following table
shows the relation of these LEDs and a state of a temperature input module.
Name
RUN LED
ERR LED
ALM LED

*2 For details, refer to the following.
Page 87 List of Alarm Codes
3.2
Checking the State of the Module
Open the module diagnostics window of the engineering tool to check the error codes of a temperature input module.
[Diagnostics] [System Monitor] Right-click the module to be checked. "Module Diagnostics"
