8.21.2 2 Communication Status LEDs
For the PROFIBUS MPI protocol, the communication status LEDs
STA
and
ERR
can assume the states described below. This description is valid from
stack version V2.4.
LED
Color
State
Meaning
cifX with 2 Communication Status LEDs
(AIFX-DP is connected)
LED green
(green)
On
Status:
The device currently holds the PROFIBUS token and is
able to transfer telegrams of data.
(green)
Blinking (5 Hz)
Status:
The device is configured to be a part of the PROFIBUS
ring, but it must share the PROFIBUS token with other PROFIBUS-
Master devices present on the PROFIBUS ring.
(green)
Blinking (0.5 Hz)
Status:
Automatic baudrate detection is running
STA
(off)
Off
Status
: The device has not been integrated into the PROFIBUS
ring, i.e. it has not been configured correctly or has a wrong
configuration or has not received the PROFIBUS token.
LED red
ERR
(off)
Off
This LED is not used.

LED State
Definition
Blinking (5 Hz)
The indicator turns on and off with a frequency of appr. 5 Hz:
“on” for appr. 100 ms, followed by “off” for appr. 100 ms.
Blinking (0.5
Hz)
The indicator turns on and off with a frequency of appr. 0.5 Hz:
“on” for appr. 1000 ms, followed by “off” for appr. 1000 ms.
