Troubleshooting
Operation
Checking the LED Indicators
WARNING
Be aware that the controller is connected to the power supply and
that critical components of the controller are exposed when the
cover is removed to inspect the LED indicators. Always use extreme
caution when the cover is removed.
Figure 64 shows the position of the four LED indicators on the
circuit board of the ER5000. The LED indicators give you a quick
visual reference to evaluate the status of the controller.
During installation, use LED1 (red) and LED4 (red) to verify that
you have correctly wired the ER5000 to its power supply.
If you are communicating via RS485, for example as part of a
daisychain on a network, LED2 (green) and LED3 (amber) verify
that the ER5000 is sending and receiving data.

WARNINGWARNING
Refer to page 89 through page 93 for correct wiring to
connect the ER5000 to an RS485 converter.

CAUTIONCAUTION
WARNINGWARNING
LED2 and LED3 respond to data transmission when the
ER5000 communicates using RS485. These LEDs do not respond to data
transmission when the ER5000 communicates using USB and may be on or
off depending on the specic conguration of your application. They do not
need to be checked during installation or operation when USB is used.
The LEDs can help you troubleshoot controllers that are not
functioning properly.
