Status/Control Panel
Status Indicators
The UI-8-10 module includes a complete indicator status panel on the front of the
module.
This panel includes indicators reporting on the status of the following:
POWER
This green indicator illuminates when DC power is applied through the
Power/IO Bus.
COMM
This yellow indicator illuminates when data is transmitted from the
module to the NetController. In normal operation, data is only transmitted
when an input value changes.
This indicator will also flash periodically as the NetController checks the
I/O bus periodically.
STATUS
This red indicator is normally off. If it is always on or flashing at a fast
rate there is a problem with the module.
This indicator can be manually illuminated from the Continuum
workstation and used as a troubleshooting aid when locating a particular
module. More information on using this indicator may be found in the
Troubleshooting
section of this manual.
This panel also includes two operator switches that perform the following:
COMMISSION
After physical installation and during configuration through the
Continuum workstation, pressing this button registers the module’s
address with the system. For more information, refer to the section on
Configuring I/O
found earlier in this manual.
RESET
Should the module become inoperable, pressing this button resets the
module. It does not erase its memory.
