If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's Network Status is red, it means there is no link, and the module isn't physically connected to a powered Ethernet device. You should check the physical connections to the powered Ethernet device.
What to do if the Module Status is Flashing Red on my Allen-Bradley POINT I/O EtherNet/IP 1734-AENT Adapter?
If the Module Status on your Allen-Bradley Adapter is flashing red, it indicates a recoverable fault, which could be due to a firmware update, a change in the network IP address, or the CPU load being exceeded. To resolve this, check the firmware update status, the network IP address, and the CPU load.
How to troubleshoot System Power Off on an Allen-Bradley Adapter?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's System Power is off, it could be due to the field power being off or a problem with the DC-DC converter. Check the field power connections and the DC-DC converter.
What does it mean when the Network Status is Flashing Red on my Allen-Bradley Adapter?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's Network Status is flashing red, it signifies that one or more Ethernet connections have timed out. Investigate the network connections to identify and resolve any time-out errors.
Why is the Network Status Flashing Green on my Allen-Bradley Adapter?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's Network Status is flashing green, it indicates that there are no CIP connections established, even though the device has an IP address. You need to establish CIP connections to resolve this issue.
What does PointBus Status Flashing Red mean on an Allen-Bradley POINT I/O EtherNet/IP 1734-AENT?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's PointBus Status is flashing red, it means a recoverable fault has occurred. This could be due to a mismatch between the expected and present number of modules at powerup, a missing module, or a node fault (I/O connection timeout). Verify the number of modules connected and check for any node faults.
Why is the PointBus Status Flashing Green on my Allen-Bradley POINT I/O EtherNet/IP 1734-AENT Adapter?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's PointBus Status is flashing green, it indicates that the adapter is online but no connections have been established. This can happen if the adapter chassis size hasn't been configured, the controller is in program/idle mode, or the Ethernet cable is open. Configure the adapter chassis size, ensure the controller is in run mode, and check the Ethernet cable connections.
What does it mean when the Module Status is Solid Red on my Allen-Bradley Adapter?
If the Module Status on your Allen-Bradley Adapter is solid red, it indicates an unrecoverable fault, such as a self-test failure (checksum or RAM test failure at powerup) or a fatal firmware error. Perform a self-test to identify the specific error.
Why is the PointBus Status Red on my Allen-Bradley Adapter?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's PointBus Status is red, it indicates an unrecoverable fault, such as the adapter being bus off or failing its duplicate MAC ID check. Check for MAC ID conflicts and ensure the adapter is online.
What to do if the Network Status is Off on my Allen-Bradley POINT I/O EtherNet/IP 1734-AENT?
If the Allen-Bradley Adapter's Network Status is off, it means the device is not initialized and doesn't have an IP address. Initialize the device and assign an IP address.
