Troubleshooting
The following sections describe some typical problems and how to address them.
Unable to communicate with the device
This is covered in the previous section under "Communication faults".
All of the LEDs are off
It is necessary to provide module power via the power terminals on the front of the EIP-200S
Ethernet/IP Adapter. The EIP-200S Ethernet/IP Adapter will not attempt to initialize until
power has been applied to the 24 VDC terminals.
Module Status LED is solid red
If a major unrecoverable fault occurs, the device will cease all communication on the network
and the Module Status LED will be solid red. This condition could occur due to a hardware
failure that prevents proper operation of the device. Replace the interface module, or contact
your Siemens representative.
Module Status LED is flashing red
If the Module Status LED is flashing red, this is most likely due to a configuration error. In
automatic configuration mode, this may be due to a module hot swap in which an incorrect
module was used in place of the previous module or a new module has not been inserted. In
user configured mode, this may indicate that an invalid Adapter parameter combination has
been specified or the configuration specified by the Adapter module does not match the
actual configuration currently connected to the EIP-200S Ethernet/IP Adapter.
Module Status LED is flashing green
The Module Status LED might be flashing green for one of the following reasons:
●
The module configuration is correct, but an invalid parameter combination has been
specified for either the Adapter or one or more modules.
●
Mod Status flashing green and Net Status Off - waiting for IP address from DHCP or
BOOTP.
