Trouble shooting
This section describes errors that may happen during run-time and actions to be
taken.
See the following items before making a judgement on PLC problems.
(1)
Check if the power is on. (Does PLC drive input voltage enabled normally?)
(2)
Check that each module is mounted (such as power supply, CPU, I/O, special
modules) or wired (Such as I/O signal, cable) properly.
Please be advised that as the size of the scan program increases, response time will
decrease accordingly.
See the following table for recommended actions when troubleshooting signal
failures.
Recommended action for signal failures
Error
Remedy
General output is
disabled
-
Check if the PLC module wired or mounted
correctly.
-
Check that the buffer memory (PWM enable)
channel per BIT is OFF. The Y interface does not
operate as general output in ON status.
PWM output is
disabled
-
Check if the PLC module wired or mounted
correctly.
-
Check that the buffer memory (PWM Enable,
frequency, Duty cycle) is set properly. The PWM
output operates when corresponding BIT per
channel of PWM buffer is in ON status.
-
Check if the frequency and the duty cycle are set
properly. The PWM output does not operate
when the frequency or the duty cycle is 0.
