ControlNet Status Indicators
•
steady – indicator is on continuously in the defined state.
•
alternating – the two indicators alternate between the two defined states at the
same time (applies to both indicators viewed together). The two indicators are
always in opposite states, out of phase.
•
flashing – the indicator alternates between the two defined states (applies to
each indicator viewed independent of the other). If both indicators are
flashing, they must flash together, in phase.

Node is not configured to go on
line Make sure the configuration manager node is present and
working➀
Flashing red/off Media fault Check media for broken cables, loose connectors, missing
terminators, etc.
No other nodes present on
network Add other nodes to the network
Flashing red/green Incorrect network configuration Cycle power or reset unit
If fault persists, contact A-B representative or distributor.
➀ The configuration manager node is the node responsible for distributing ControlNet configuration data to all nodes on the network.
In this chapter you learned how to use the indicators on the front of
