6.5.1
Clearing a Fault Condition
Typically, if the ACT/FAULT LED on the front of the module becomes illuminated
red for over ten seconds, a hardware problem has been detected in the module
or the program has exited. To attempt to clear the condition:
1
Turn the power to the rack off
2
Remove the card from the rack
3
Re-insert the card in the rack and turn the power back on
4
Verify the configuration data being transferred to the module from the SLC
processor
If the module's ACT/FAULT LED does not turn green, make sure the module is
inserted completely into the rack. If this does not cure the problem, contact the
factory.
6.5.2 Troubleshooting
Use the following troubleshooting steps if you encounter problems when the
module is powered up. If these steps do not resolve your problem, please contact
