 I/O refreshing on the NX bus is 
not performed normally due to an 
error in the CPU Unit.
Check the error that occurred in 
the CPU Unit and perform the 
required corrections.
Take preventive measures against 
the error that occurred in the CPU 
Unit.
For Communications Coupler Units
The communications cable con-
nected to the Communications 
Coupler Unit is broken or the con-
nection is faulty.
Replace the communications 
cable or wire the cable correctly.
Wire the communications cable  
correctly.
The communications cable is
