LEDs

The U551 modules have diagnostic LEDs to 
assist troubleshooting.  

Power - On when the module is on.

Rx - On when the module receives data.

Tx

 - 

On when the module transmits data.

DO1 - On when digital output 1 is active.

DO2 - On when digital output 2 is active. 

DO3 - On when digital output 3 is active.

DO4 - On when digital output 4 is active. 

DO5 - On when digital output 5 is active. 

Production Date

To determine when a module was 
manufactured, check the module status 
report for the module in WebCTRL or 
SuperVision. Refer to the appropriate user’s 
guide for more information about the module 
status report.

A sticker on the back of the module also 
shows the date the module was 
manufactured. The first three characters on 
the sticker indicate the type of module. The 
next two characters show the year and month 
of manufacture. (The month digit is in 
hexadecimal.)
