Basic Procedures of Troubleshooting
System reliability not only depends on reliable equipment but also on short downtimes in the event of
faults.
The short discovery and corrective action is needed for speedy operation of the system. The following
shows the basic instructions for troubleshooting.
1) Visual checks
Check the following points.
•
Machine operating condition (in stop and operating status)
•
Power On/Off
- Status of I/O devices
- Condition of wiring (I/O wires, extension and communications cables)
- Display states of various indicators (such as POWER LED, RUN LED, ERR. LED and I/O
LED).
After checking them, connect peripheral devices and check the operation status of the PLC
option card and the program contents.
2) Trouble Check
Observe any change in the error conditions during the following.
•
Switch to the STOP position, and then turn the power on and off.
3) Narrow down the possible causes of the trouble where the fault lies, i.e.:
•
Inside or outside of the PLC?
•
I/O module or another module?
•
PLC option card program?
