Replacing Fuses

When replacing a fuse, be sure to remove all power from the system.

Program Alteration

There are several causes of alteration to the user program, including extreme
environmental conditions, Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), improper
grounding, improper wiring connections, and unauthorized tampering. If you
suspect the memory has been altered, check the program against a previously
saved program on an EEPROM, UVPROM or Flash EPROM module.

To receive the maximum benefit of this troubleshooting section, we
recommend you follow these steps:

1. Match your processor LEDs with the status LEDs located in the first

column in the tables on the following pages.

2. Once the status LEDs are matched to the appropriate table, simply move

across the table identifying error description and probable causes.

3. Follow the recommended action steps for each probable cause until the

cause is identified.

4. If recommended actions do not identify the cause, contact your local

Allen–Bradley sales office or distributor.
