Diagnosis and LED status displayPermalink

This is the web edition of the original ‎⮫ AC500-S safety user manual, version 1.3.2. This web edition is provided for quick reference only. The original safety user manual must be used to meet functional safety application requirements.

Safety CPU status is shown by its LEDs. RUN LED is bicolored. The following figure and table show positions and functions of 5 LEDs.

RUN

Run mode indicator

Green

ON

Safety CPU is in RUN (safety) mode. The application program is executed.

BLINKING

Not applicable

OFF

Safety CPU is in DEBUG STOP (non-safety) mode. The application program is not executed.

Yellow

ON

Safety CPU is in DEBUG RUN (non-safety) mode. The application program is executed.

BLINKING

Firmware, boot project or boot code update indication

OFF

Safety CPU is in DEBUG STOP (non-safety) mode. The application program is not executed.

I-ERR

Internal device error indicator

Red

ON

Internal device error leading to a SAFE STOP state (no valid PROFIsafe telegrams are generated by the device).

BLINKING

Firmware or boot code update

OFF

No internal device error leading to a safe state

E-ERR

External error indicator

Red

ON

This LED can be set only from the user application program using a special library POU SF_E_ERR_LED_SET⮫ “SF_E_ERR_LED_SET”. One of possible use cases is the visualization of important external device errors.

BLINKING

This LED can be set only from the user application program using a special library POU SF_E_ERR_LED_SET⮫ “SF_E_ERR_LED_SET”. One of possible use cases is the visualization of light external device errors.

OFF

No external errors were identified.

Error messages

Safety CPU error messages are aggregated together with other communication module error messages in the non-safety CPU. All error messages can be observed on the non-safety CPU. In addition, error messages of the safety CPU can be observed on the safety CPU itself.

NOTICE

The error messages of not only the safety CPU but also of safety I/O modules are visualized on non-safety CPU display.

No error message overflow on the safety CPU is possible. The maximum number of entries in the safety CPU diagnosis system is 100. If all 100 entries in the diagnosis system are occupied, the newest entry overwrites the oldest one.

After a power cycle of the safety CPU, error messages are deleted from the safety CPU diagnosis system.
