Diagnostic Indicators

The OK indicator is located on the front panel of the adapter module
(Figure 1.1). It shows both normal operation and error conditions in
your remote I/O system.

In addition, an alphanumeric display (net address/status) provides
status code indications when an error occurs during initialization or
operation.

A complete description of the diagnostic indicators and status display
and how to use them for troubleshooting is explained in chapter 5.

Communication Reset Pushbutton

This pushbutton is active whenever the status display shows RSET
or PRL. PRL is active only when the I/O chassis backplane switch is
in the PRL position. If the above conditions are met, you can use the
reset pushbutton (Figure 1.1) to reset the adapter module and resume
communication after a communication error occurs.

Network Access Port (NAP)

The network access port (Figure 1.1) provides a bidirectional
electrical interface for programming, maintenance, and I/O
