7 Diagnosis 
The diagnostic LEDs are used to give a first quick overview of the system state. The 
diagnostic history in SILworX provides detailed information. 
7.1  Light Emitting Diodes 
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) on the front plate indicate the module state. All LEDs should 
be considered together. The state of one single LED is not sufficient to assess the module 
state. 
The LEDs on the modules are divided into the following groups: 
 Module status indicators 
 Redundancy indicators 
 Rack connection indicators 
  System bus indicators 
 Slot indicators 
 Maintenance indicators 
 Fault indicators 
 I/O indicators 
 Fieldbus indicators 
 Ethernet indicators 
 Communication indicators 
When the voltage is connected, the module performs a test of the LEDs. 
7.1.1  Definition of Blinking Frequencies 
Blinking frequencies of the LEDs: 
Designation  Blinking frequencies 
Blinking1  Long (approx. 600 ms) on, long (approx. 600 ms) off 
Blinking2 
Short (approx. 300 ms) on, short (approx. 300 ms) off, long (approx. 
600 ms) on, long (approx. 600 ms) off 
Blinking-x  Ethernet communication flashing in sync with data transfer

Assignment of the LED groups to the types of modules: 
Groups  Module types 
Module Status Indicators  All 
Redundancy Indicators  Processor module, system bus module 
System Bus Indicators  All, except for system bus module 
Rack Connection Indicators  System bus module 
Slot Indicators  System bus module 
Maintenance Indicators  Processor Module 
Fault Indicators  Processor module 
I/O Indicators  I/O modules 
Fieldbus Indicators  Communication module 
Ethernet Indicators  Processor module, communication module 
Ethernet Indicators X-SB Module  System bus module
