Diagnostic Indicators

Diagnostic indicators are located on the front panel of the adapter
module. They show both normal operation and error conditions in
your FLEX I/O system. The indicators are:

Device status (STATUS)

Communication link status (PROFIBUS)

Upon power-up, the adapter goes to an initialization state and
performs a self-test (memory check, data memory clear, CRC on
code). The indicators also go through a self-test sequence. If a failure
occurs, the adapter transitions to a faulted state and waits for reset
(cycle power). Otherwise, the adapter begins monitoring the network
(run state) for messages.

Chapter 5 describes the diagnostic indicators and how to use them
for troubleshooting.
