Transmission Errors and Output Signals
Transmission
errors occur in the following cases:
•
When the signal or 0-V wire is disconnected.
• When
the signal is influenced by high-level external
noise or the
signal is excessively deformed because the length of the
transmission
path is more than the permissible distance.
• When
the supply voltage to the Link T
erminals are not within
the
operating
voltage range (12 to 24 V
±10%).
•
Immediately after the Link T
erminals are turned on.
(An error is reset within 300 ms after the power is turned on.)
Output Signals
HOLD:
When an error occurs, the output signals just
before the oc
-
currence
of the error will be maintained.
LOAD
OFF: When an error occurs, all output signals will be turned
OFF.
Automatic
Reset
When
the error is corrected, the Link T
erminals
will automatically re
-
set
themselves.
