Create Controller Fault Routine
Check for a Specific Fault In this article, we will learn how to clear fault on Allen Bradley PLCs. Which is the continuation of our previous article. We will examine the automatic cleaning of the fault types that we have determined specifically, and error notifications at prescan time. You can find our previous article at…
PLC Controller Fault Routine
If there are software or hardware errors in the PLC, you may not want to catch the error or stop your whole system due to the error. In these cases, you can use a fault routine to clear the fault and allow some part of your system to continue running. Failure routine runs the routines…
DeviceNet Troubleshooting
DeviceNet will not function correctly if design rules are not followed. Even a Network previously thought to be functioning correctly may begin to exhibit abnormal or anomalous operations due to incorrect system design. Termination Resistors A termination resistor equal to 121 Ohms 1%, 1/4W must be attached at each end of the Trunk cable. The…
Create user-defined fault
Logix Designer Faults To suspend (shut down) the controller based on the conditions in the application, create a user-defined major fault. User-defined main faults: Fault type = Define the fault value to choose a value between 990 and 999. Logix Designer reserves these codes for user-defined faults. The controller is handled in the same way…
Allen-Bradley PLC I/O Faults Causes/Solutions
Depending on the controller, the indication of I/O failure will be displayed in various ways. The I/O indicator of the controller (as shown in the example below) flashes green or red. The following table lists common I/O failure codes and corresponding descriptions and recovery methods (if applicable). Each code is listed as a complete hexadecimal…

ControlLogix Major Faults and Fault Codes
For plc errors and solutions, you can find the error reasons from the table below and try the solutions found in return. You can find the error description in the table. Major Faults If a fault condition occurs that prevents an instruction from running, the instruction aborts and the controller reports a major fault. A…
