Publication 2090-IN010C-EN-P – April 2005
The table below offers an explanation of the SERCOS ring indicator.
The table below offers an explanation of the CP indicator.
To facilitate testing of fiber optical connections, a test mode via CIP Generic
Message Type to the SERCOS Axis object can be configured. This test
mode lets you set hi and low optical power, continuous light and zero bit
stream test modes. This service closes all connections upon execution,
which shuts down motion. It is recommended that all motion be shut down
prior to executing this instruction. The SERCOS fiber transmit cable should
also be disconnected from the module in preparation for attachment of
optical test equipment.
If the SERCOS ring
indicator displays:
The module status is:
Solid orange light
Continuous light is active.
Flashing orange light
Zero bit stream is active.
If the CP indicator
displays:

ATTENTION
The Module Must be Reset/RIUP (Removed & Inserted Under Power) to
cancel the test function.
