6.2 Basic Inspection of a PLC and Troubleshooting
The malfunctions which commonly occur in a PLC and troubleshooting are described in the tables
below.
1. System malfunction
Symptom Troubleshooting and Corrective Actions
All LEDs are OFF
1. Check the power supply wiring.
2. Check whether the power supplied to the PLC control units is in
the range of the rating.
3. Be sure to check the fluctuation in the power supply.
4. Disconnect the power supply wiring to the other devices if the
power supplied to the PLC control unit is shared with them.
If the LEDs on the PLC control unit are turned ON at this
moment, the capacity of the power supply is not enough to
control other devices as well. Prepare another power supply for
other devices or increase the capacity of the power supply.
5. If the POWER LED still does not light up when the power is ON
after the above corrective actions, the PLC should be sent back
to the dealer or the distributor whom you purchased the product
from.
ERROR LED is
flashing
1. If the ERROR LED is flashing, the problem may be an invalid
commands, communication error, invalid operation, or missing
instructions, error indication is given by self-checking function
and corresponding error code and error step are stored in
special registers. The corresponding error codes can be read
from the WPLSoft or HPP. Error codes and error steps are stored
in the following special registers.
Error code: D1004
Error step: D1137
2. If the connections between the PLCs fail and the LED flashes
rapidly, this indicates the DC 24 V power supply is down. Please
check for possible DC 24 V overload.
3. The LED will be steady if the program loop execution time is over
the preset time (set in D1000), check the programs or the WDT
(Watch Dog Timer). If the LED remains steady, download user
program again and then power up to see if the LED will be OFF.
If not, please check whether there is any noise interference or
any foreign object in the PLC.
