REDUNDANT SYSTEM FUNCTIONS
(3) When Only One System Starts Up
Whichever system that starts up first will be the "Control system".
*6
Also, if the control system is already on, the other system will be the "Standby" system
when it starts up.
* 6: The "STANDBY SYS. DOWN (error code: 6300) continuation error will occur in the control system
CPU module.
By disabling "Check standby system malfunction," at the standby System Monitor settings in the
redundant parameter operation mode settings with GX Developer, the control system will not
detect the "STANDBY SYS. DOWN" continuation error.
(4) Confirming the Control System/Standby System
*7
Identify the control system and standby system by checking the "CONTROL" LEDs. of
CPU modules.
Refer to the following manual, for details on the CPU module LED :
QCPU User's Manual (Hardware Design, Maintenance and Inspection)
* 7: The control system and standby system can be identified by checking whether the special relays
"Control/Standby Status flag (SM1515)" and "Control/Standby Status flag (SM1516)" are ON or
OFF.
