9-1 TOUGH GUN TT3E Reamer - Network
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Cannot Connect to Ethernet
Module.
1. Loose connection of RJ45 cables.
2. Incorrect TCP/IPv4 Properties
3. Incorrect IP address
1. Check that connections are secure.
2. Change the properties through the network
connection status on the host computer.
3. Set rotary switches to 600 and cycle power. Then
use Turck IP Address Tool to find correct IP
address.
2. BUS or ERR LEDs Red
(Flashing or solid)
1. IP address conflict.
2. Circuitry is incorrect.
1. Ensure IP address is not duplicated within the
network.
2. Ensure I/O connector blocks are connected to the
Ethernet Module.
3. ETH1/ETH2 LEDs On but not
flashing
1. No communication between Ethernet
module and network.
1. Connect Ethernet module to network device so that
open communication can happen.
4. ETH1/ETH2 LEDs not
Illuminated
1. No connection to the network.
1. a) Ensure Ethernet module is powered.
b) Check that the physical network connections
are secure.
