Redundant Function Module Communication Test
The hardware of the redundant function module is checked for an error when its communication is unstable.
The following table shows the test items included in the module communication test.
Execution procedure of the module communication test
1.
Connect the engineering tool directly to the standby system CPU module.
2.
Set the CPU module operating status to the STOP state.
3.
Connect the IN and OUT connectors of the standby system redundant function module with the tracking cable. (A cable
disconnection error is detected in the control system.)
4.
Open the "Redundant Operation" window of the engineering tool.

5.
Click the [Execute Test] button of "Module Communication Test".
• LED status of the redundant function module during the module communication test
6.
When the test is completed with an error, take actions according to "Corrective Action" in the test result window.
7.
When the test is completed successfully, connect the control system and standby system with the tracking cable. (
Page 428 Wiring the redundant function modules)
8.
Click the [Close] button in the "Redundant Operation" window to exit the module communication test.
9.
Set the CPU module operating status to the RUN state.
The module communication test can be executed regardless of whether the backup mode or separate mode
is selected as the operation mode. In the backup mode, a tracking communication error is detected when a
tracking cable is disconnected.
Precautions
• Always connect the IN and OUT connectors of the redundant function module with the tracking cable before performing the
module communication test.
• Perform the module communication test on the standby system CPU module. Performing the test on the control system
CPU module may cause an unintended operation.
Test item
Description
Internal selfloopback test
Checks whether the communication function of the redundant function module normally operates.
External selfloopback test
Checks whether communications can be normally performed with a tracking cable that connects the IN connector and
OUT connector of the redundant function modules.
