Indicator

State

Description

INput

On

Digital input channels are high (10 … 30V DC).

Off

Digital input channels are off.

OUTput

On

Digital output channels are high.

Off

Digital output channels are off.

RUN

On

This is the normal status of the controller.

A routine, which has been loaded into the controller, is executed. The controller processes input
and output signals, carries out communication, and performs hardware and software tests.

Flashing

The controller is in Stop mode and is not executing a routine.

All system outputs are reset.

Stop mode can be triggered by setting the system variable AB-CPU/Emergency Stop to TRUE in
the routine, or by direct command from the programming terminal.

Off

The controller is in Failure_Stop (see ERROR).

ERROR

On

A hardware error has been detected by the controller. In this case the controller goes to
Failure_Stop and the execution of the routine is halted. Hardware errors are errors in the
controller, in one or more of the digital input and output modules, or in the counters.

A software error in the operating system has been detected by the controller.

The watchdog has reported an error because of exceeded cycle time.

All system outputs will be reset and the controller ceases all hardware and software tests. The
controller can only be restarted by a command from the programming terminal.

Flashing

If all the status indicators are on and ERROR blinks, the boot loader detected a corrupted
operating system and is waiting for an operating system download.

Off

No errors are detected.

PROGress

On

The upload of a new controller configuration is in progress.

Flashing

The upload of a new operating system into the Flash ROM is in progress.

Off

No upload of controller configuration or operating system is in progress.

FORCE

On

The controller is executing a routine (Run) and Force mode is activated by the user.

Flashing

The controller is in Stop mode, but forcing has been saved and will be activated when the
controller is started.

Off

Forcing is off.
