Status Light Description - Control Technology 2600XM Installation Manual

Status Light Description

The status light on the Model 2600XM can indicate one of the following conditions:
•
Software fault: A periodic flashing light on the 2600XM indicates a program
software fault. This means the controller was unable to execute due to an applica-
tion problem within the program. To determine what type of software fault has
occurred, you can view the program status using Quickstep for Windows’ program
monitoring utility, CTCMON.
If a program software fault occurs, the controller is idle and all setable resources,
such as outputs, registers or flags, are left in the state they were in prior to the
software fault. You can program register 13009 to turn off a specific output in the
event of a software fault. Refer to the list of special purpose registers for more
information.
•
Hardware fault: A steady red light indicates that the internal watch dog timer has
disabled the controller’s CPU. If this occurs, the controller’s outputs are also
disabled. Try cycling the power, re-downloading your Quickstep program, or both.
If the fault continues, your controller may have to be returned to Control Technology
Corp. for repair. For further details, contact our Technical Support department
before returning your controller.
When powering-up the controller, the status light is a steady red light during the first
second of operation.
