Introduction
Safety Considerations
Safety considerations are an important element of proper
troubleshooting procedures. Actively thinking about the safety of
yourself and others, as well as the condition of your equipment, is of
primary importance.
The following sections describe several safety concerns you should be
aware of when troubleshooting your control system.
Status Indicators
When the green status indicator on the analog module is illuminated,
it indicates that power is applied to the module.
Activate Devices When Troubleshooting
When troubleshooting, never reach into the machine to actuate a
device. Unexpected machine motion could occur.
