  The red flashing FAULT LED on your Rockwell Automation Scanner may indicate several issues. First, the G file might be missing; in this case, enter the configuration information in the G file. Second, the G file configuration may be invalid; verify the configuration to ensure the proper G file size and settings. Finally, a duplicate node may have been detected. To resolve this, disconnect the RIO link from the scanner, then either cycle the scanner’s power or re-enter Run mode. Check for other scanners on the same network. If the problem continues, consider replacing the scanner.

  If you see a red flashing FAULT LED on your Rockwell Automation Scanner, it could be due to a few reasons. It might be that the G file is missing, so you should enter the configuration information in the G file. Another reason might be an invalid G file configuration, so check the configuration for the correct G file size and settings. It is also possible that a duplicate node was detected. If this is the case, disconnect the RIO link from the scanner, then either cycle the scanner’s power or re-enter the Run mode. Also, check if there is another scanner on the same network. If the issue remains, you may need to replace the scanner.

  A flashing red FAULT LED on a Rockwell Automation Scanner can stem from a few potential causes: * A missing G file: Enter the necessary configuration information into the G file. * An invalid G file configuration: Ensure the G file size and settings are correct. * A duplicate node detection: Disconnect the RIO link, cycle the scanner's power or re-enter Run mode, and check for other scanners on the network. If the issue persists, scanner replacement might be necessary.
