11.4  ERROR/ALARM LED is ON 
If the ERROR/ALARM LED is on, the system watchdog timer has been activated and the 
operation of the PLC has been stopped. There are two ways to remedy the problem: 
•  Set the mode selector of the PLC from RUN to PROG mode and turn the power off 
and then on. 
-  If the ERROR/ALARM LED turns on again, there is probably an abnormality in the 
CPU. Please contact your dealer. 
-  Check if the ERROR/ALARM LED is flashing. See "ERROR/ALARM LED is 
Flashing" on page 
264. 
•  Set the mode selector from PROG to RUN mode. If the ERROR/ALARM LED turns 
on, the program execution time is too long. 
-  Check if instructions such as JP or LOOP are programmed in such a way that a 
scan can never finish. 
-  Make sure that interrupt instructions are executed in succession.
