Symptom
Possible cause
Possible solution
Outputs stop working The device being controlled has
caused an electrical surge that dam-
aged the output
When connecting to an inductive load
(such as a motor or relay), a proper
suppression circuit should be used.
Refer to
the wiring guidelines in Chap-
ter 3.
Wiring loose or incorrect
Check wiring and correct
Excessive load
Check load against contact ratings
Output point is forced
Check the CPU for forced I/O
ERROR light on the CPU turns on
(Red)
Electrical noise Refer to
the wiring guidelines in Chap-
ter 3. It is very important that the con-
trol panel is connected to a good
ground and that high voltage wiring is
not run in parallel with low voltage
wiring.
Connect the M terminal on the 24 V DC
Sensor Power Supply to ground
Component damage Send in hardware for repair or re-
placement
None of the CPU LEDs turn on Blown fuse Use a line analyzer and monitor the
input power to check the magnitude
and duration of the over-voltage spikes.
Based on this information, add the
proper type surge arrestor device to
your power wiring.
Reversed 24 V power wires
