3.5 LEDs and signalling
Four status LEDs on the bus cover signal the various encoder states and thus support
error diagnosis and troubleshooting in the field (see Table 3.2). The two Link Activity
LEDs (L/A) light up or flash green when the encoder is connected to another Ethernet
node (PLC, switch, additional field device...) and data is being exchanged. The MOD
LED the status of the encoder.
•
ATTENTION! The STAT LED is lit during operation but is
negligible for the network status of the encoder.
