(3) Replacement Procedure during Power OFF
The I/O module replacement procedure is shown in Diagram 8.28.
POINT
When the standby system is powered OFF, the control system CPU module
develops in a STANDBY SYS.DOWN (error code: 6300) continuation error.
After the replacement of the standby system CPU module is complete, reset
errors in the control system CPU module as necessary.
Refer to Section 8.2 for the error resetting method.
Confirm the I/O Unit Targeted for Replacement
Confirm that the I/O unit to be replaced is the standby system (CONTROL LED is off).When
replacing the I/O unit for the control system, use GX Developer to switch it to the standby system.
Refer to Section 5.2, for system switching using GX Developer.
Turn the Standby System's Power Supply OFF
Removing the Terminal Block/Connector from the I/O module
Remove the terminal block/connector from the I/O module.
Replace the Standby System's I/O Unit
1) Disconnect the I/O module from the main base unit.
2) Mount an alternative I/O module (the same model as the control system I/O module) to the main
base unit.
Refer to the QCPU Module User's Manual (Hardware Design, Maintenance and
Inspection), for mounting/removing the I/O module.
Mounting the Terminal Block/Connector to I/O module
Mount the terminal block/connector to the I/O module.
Turn on the Standby System
1) Align the position of the standby system CPU module's RUN/STOP switch with that of the control
system RUN/STOP switch.
2) Set the standby system CPU module's RESET/L.CLR switch to the central position (reset switch
neutral position).
3) Turn the standby system's power supply ON
Confirm the Power Supply Module's POWER LED
Confirm that the power supply module's POWER LED is ON (green) and that power is being
supplied properly.
