LED Indicators
There are seven LED status indicators on the DSM314 module, described below:
STAT Normally ON. FLASHES to provide an indication of operational errors. Flashes slow
(four times/second) for Status-Only errors. Flashes fast (eight times/second) for
errors that cause the servo to stop.
ON:
When the LED is steady ON, the DSM314 is functioning properly.
Normally, this LED should always be ON.
OFF:
When the LED is OFF, the DSM314 is not functioning. This is the result
of a hardware or software malfunction that prevents the module from
powering up.
Flashing:
When the LED is FLASHING, an error condition is being signaled.
Constant Rate, CFG LED ON:
The LED flashes slow (four times/second) for Status Only errors and fast (eight
times/second) for errors that cause the servo to stop. The Module Error Present %I status bit
will be ON. An error code (hex format) will be placed in the Module Status Code %AI word or
one of the Axis Error Code %AI words.
Constant Rate, CFG LED Flashing:
If the STAT and CFG LEDs both flash together at a constant rate, the DSM314 module is in
boot mode waiting for a new firmware download. If the STAT and CFG LEDs both flash
alternately at a constant rate, the DSM314 firmware has detected a software watchdog
timeout due to a hardware or software malfunction.
Irregular Rate, CFG LED OFF:
If this occurs immediately at power-up, then a hardware or software malfunction has been
detected. The module will blink the STAT LED to display two error numbers separated by a
brief delay. The numbers are determined by counting the blinks in both sequences. Record
the numbers and contact Emerson for information on
correcting the problem.
OK
The OK LED indicates the current status of the DSM314 module.
ON:
When the LED is steady ON, the DSM314 is functioning properly.
Normally, this LED should always be ON.
OFF:
When the LED is OFF, the DSM314 is not functioning. This is the result of a
hardware or software malfunction that prevents the module from
powering up.
CFG
This LED is ON when a module configuration has been received from the host
controller.
EN1
When this LED is ON, the Axis 1 Drive Enable relay output is active.
EN2
When this LED is ON, the Axis 2 Drive Enable relay output is active.
