Error Classification and Confirmation
Error Categories
Errors in CP1L CPU Units can be broadly divided into the following four cate-
gories.
Confirming Errors
There are three sources of information on errors that have occurred.
• CPU Unit indicators
• Auxiliary Area
CPU Unit Indicators
These indicators show the operating status of the CPU Unit.
Note
Do not turn OFF the CPU Unit power supply when this indicator is lit.
Category
Comments
CPU Error
A WDT (watchdog timer) error is generated in the CPU Unit, the
CPU Unit will malfunction, and operation will stop.
CPU Standby
The CPU will go on standby because conditions for stating oper-
ation have not yet been met.
Fatal Error
Operation cannot continue. Operation will stop due to a serious
problem.
Non-fatal Error
A minor problem has occurred. Operation will continue
POWER
RUN
INH
PRPHL
BKUP
ERR/ALM

MONITOR mode.
Not lit
Operation is stopped in PROGRAM mode or due to a
fatal error.
ERR/ALM

operation will stop and all outputs will be turned OFF.
Flashing
A non-fatal error has occurred. Operation will continue.
Not lit
Operation is normal.
INH (yellow)
Lit
The Output OFF Bit (A500.15) was turned ON. All out-
puts will be turned OFF.
Not lit
Operation is normal.
PRPHL
(yellow)
Flashing
Communications (either sending or receiving) are in
progress through the peripheral port.
Not lit
Other than the above.
