Problem:

Some Beckhoff i/o terminals are not active and status LEDs are off, control does not respond to commands.

Possible Causes & Resolutions:

• The 24Vdc supply of the EK1100 coupler or the EL9410 intermediate supply terminal is missing or the voltage is too low > Check all connections, measure voltage, check fuses.
• Bad contact between the terminals > Switch off the main power and remove the terminals. Clean the contact between the terminals.
• Defective EL9410 intermediate supply terminal > Exchange terminal.
• Defective EK1100 coupler > Exchange coupler.

Problem:

After main switch off and on again, HMI piece counter values and settings are lost or old recipes are loaded.

Possible Causes & Resolutions:

• IPC has not shut down correctly.Check the IPC after you switched off the main switch: Normally it will continue to run for at least 30 seconds to shut down correctly. If LED’s of IPC goes off within a few second, the battery of the UPS – unit is dead and needs to be replaced.
