Diagnostic LEDs

BK9000, BK9100, BC9000, BC9100

After switching on, the Bus Coupler immediately checks the connected configuration. Error-free start-up is indicated when the red I/O ERR LED goes out. If the I/O ERR LED blinks, an error in the area of the terminals is indicated. The error code can be determined from the frequency and number of blinks. This permits rapid rectification of the error.

The Bus Coupler has two groups of LEDs for the display of status. The upper group with four LEDs indicates the status of the respective fieldbus. The significance of the fieldbus status LEDs is explained in the appropriate sections of this manual. It corresponds to the usual fieldbus display.

On the upper right hand side of the Bus Couplers are two more green LEDs that indicate the supply voltage. The left hand LED indicates the presence of the 24 V supply for the Bus Coupler. The right hand LED indicates the presence of the supply to the power contacts.

Flashing: Bus traffic present

No bus traffic (bus idle)

COM (BK9100/BC9100 only)

Flashing: data received at the controller

no data are received

ERROR

LED flashes slowly if DHCP or BootP is enabled and the Bus Coupler has not yet been allocated an IP address
LED flashes quickly (5 times, only when switching on): the Bus Coupler was addressed with ARP. The settings on the DIP SWITCH are not valid.

LED permanently on (only in RT-Ethernet mode)
Note: task time set too fast

No error

PLC program is in RUN mode
LED flashes while the boot project is being saved.

PLC program is in stop mode

Description

Remedy

Persistent, continuous flashing

 

EMC problems

  • Check power supply for undervoltage or overvoltage peaks
  • Implement EMC measures
  • If a K-bus error is present, it can be localized by a restart of the coupler (by switching it off and then on again)

1 pulse

0

EEPROM checksum error

Enter factory settings with the KS2000 configuration software

1

Code buffer overflow

Insert fewer Bus Terminals. Too many entries in the table for the programmed configuration

2

Unknown data type

Software update required for the Bus Coupler

2 pulses

0

Programmed configuration has an incorrect table entry

Check programmed configuration for correctness

n (n > 0)

Table comparison (Bus Terminal n)

Incorrect table entry

3 pulses

0

K-bus command error

  • No Bus Terminal inserted
  • One of the Bus Terminals is defective; halve the number of Bus Terminals attached and check whether the error is still present with the remaining Bus Terminals. Repeat until the defective Bus Terminal is located.

4 pulses

0

K-bus data error, break behind the Bus Coupler

Check whether the n+1 Bus Terminal is correctly connected; replace if necessary

n

Break behind Bus Terminal n

Check whether the bus end terminal 9010 is connected

5 pulses

n

K-bus error in register communication with Bus Terminal n

Exchange the nth Bus Terminal

6 pulses

0

Error at initialization

Exchange Bus Coupler

1

Internal data error

Perform a hardware reset on the Bus Coupler (switch off and on again)

2

DIP switch changed after software reset
from firmware BC9000 BB and BC9100 B0:
from firmware BK9000 BA and BK9100 B0:
IP address already exists in the network

Hardware reset of the Bus Coupler (switch off and back on again)


Assign another IP address

4

DIP switch incorrect for BootP

Set 1-8 to on or off, see BootP

8

Internal data error

Perform a hardware reset on the Bus Coupler (switch off and on again)

16

Error in IP socket

Perform a hardware reset on the Bus Coupler (switch off and on again)

7 pulses (BC9000/BC9100 only)

0

Note: Cycle time was exceeded
(see Table 1 Register 17)

Warning: the set cycle time was exceeded. This note (flashing of the LED) can only be reset by rebooting the BC.
Remedy: increase the cycle time

9 pulses (BC9000/BC9100 only)

0

Checksum error in Flash program

Transmit program to the BC again

1

Incorrect or faulty library implemented

Remove the faulty library

10 pulses (BC9000/BC9100 only)

n

Bus Terminal n is not consistent with the configuration that existed when the boot project was created

Check the nth Bus Terminal. The boot project must be deleted if the insertion of an nth Bus Terminal is intentional.

14 pulses

n

nth Bus Terminal has the wrong format

Start the Bus Coupler again, and if the error occurs again then exchange the Bus Terminal.

15 pulses

n

Number of Bus Terminals is no longer correct

Start the Bus Coupler again. If the error occurs again, restore the manufacturers setting using the KS2000 configuration software

16 pulses

n

Length of the K-bus data is no longer correct

Start the Bus Coupler again. If the error occurs again, restore the manufacturers setting using the KS2000 configuration software
