DIP Switch settings are only read during a
powerup/reset.
3. Over–temperature error detected during
runtime. Outputs turn off.
4. Invalid data rate.
1. Internal fault. Reset device. If fault still
exists, return RediSTATION for repair.
2. Power down RediSTATION. Set DIP switch
settings. Reconnect power.
3. Check ambient temperature rating. Reset
device.
4. Reset DIP switches 7 and 8 to a valid
DeviceNet data rate. See page 5 for valid
data rates and cable lengths. Reset device.

1. Duplicate DeviceNet node address. Two
nodes cannot have the same address.
2. Pilot light lamp is burnt out – open circuit on
output.
3. Pilot light is not wired correctly to the I/O
connector or the screw terminals of the
device – short circuit/overload.
