Interpreting Diagnostic Information

from LEDs and Error Codes

This chapter helps you troubleshoot the SPI module using:

diagnostic indicators on the front of the module
diagnostic codes returned by the SPI module

Diagnostic indicators (Figure 5.1) and (Table 5.A) indicate the SPI
module’s operating status. Use them to troubleshoot your module.

Figure 5.1

How to Read Individual LED Indicators

Is:

The SPI Module Has Detected the Following: Take this Corrective Action:

Flashing

SPI module is not receiving from a device

Refer to 8000 series error codes in CDS.

ON

an invalid MCC

Refer to 9000 series error codes in SYS.

module failure

Replace SPI module.

OFF

none of the above

See other LEDs.

ON or Flash SPI module is sending data on the SPI network

n/a

OFF

SPI module is not sending data on the network

See other LEDs.

Flashing

SPI module is powered but not configured

Download a valid MCC to SPI module.

ON

SPI module is configured

n/a

OFF

SPI module is not powered or is bad

Apply power or replace SPI module.
