Handling Errors and Alarms Section 7-10
7-10-2 Alarms Occurring at the Analog I/O Unit
When an alarm occurs at the Analog I/O Unit, the ERC indicator lights and the
Alarm Flags are stored in bits 08 to 15 of CIO word n+9.
ERC and RUN Indicators: Lit
The ERC and RUN indicators will be lit when an error occurs while the Unit is
operating normally. The following alarm flags will turn ON in CIO word n+9.
These alarm flags will turn OFF automatically when the error is cleared.
Note Disconnection detection operates for input numbers used with a range of 1 to
5 V (4 to 20 mA).
For the CIO word addresses, n = CIO 2000 + (unit number x 10).

Check the rightmost byte of CIO 
word n+9. The inputs for bits 
that are ON may be discon-
nected. Restore any discon-
nected inputs.

EEPROM Writ-
ing Error
An EEPROM writing error has 
occurred while in adjustment 
mode.
Holds the out-
put status imme-
diately prior to 
the error.
Turn the Set Bit OFF, ON, and 
OFF again.
If the error persists even after 
the reset, replace the Analog I/O 
Unit.
