dio is connected and the system con-
figuration.

correction
Assumed cause Correction Prevention
A setting is not correct. The setting of
the safety task period is too short.
Increase the safety task period and
then transfer the settings to the
Safety CPU Unit.
Set the system configuration and
setup according to the corrections
that are given on the left.
There is excessive noise. Implement noise countermeasures. Implement noise countermeasures if
excessive noise caused the error.
The Safety CPU Unit or safety slave
entered a status where it could not
continue safety process data commu-
nications.
Check the status of the Safety CPU
Unit or safety slave.
Refer to troubleshooting information
for the Safety CPU Unit or safety
slave.
An error or status change occurred in
the Communications Coupler Unit to
which the Unit is connected, prevent-
ing correct process data communica-
tions.
Check the status of the Communica-
tions Coupler Unit to which the Unit is
connected.
Set the system configuration and
setup according to the corrections
that are given on the left.

dio is connected and the system con-
figuration.

Input data: An error occurs in safety process data commu-
nications because refreshing is stopped. The values of the
status in standard process data are not refreshed.
Output data: An error occurs in safety process data com-
munications because 0’s are output.
