7. Troubleshooting
This section provides guidance for common issues. For complex problems, contact technical support.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No Power LED indication | No power supply; incorrect wiring; faulty module. | Check 24 VDC power supply; verify wiring polarity; test with a known good power source. |
| Network Status LED off/flashing incorrectly | No network connection; incorrect network settings; faulty cable. | Check Ethernet cable connection; verify network configuration (IP address, subnet mask); replace cable. |
| I/O not responding | Incorrect I/O wiring; faulty field device; software configuration error. | Verify I/O wiring; test field device independently; check controller software configuration. |
