9.4 Troubleshooting in bus connection
If a cause cannot be located by the troubleshooting procedures specified in section 9.2 when the GOT is
bus-connected to the PLC CPU, troubleshoot the cause as follows.

9.4.1
Locating error positions
(1) How to locate error positions:
(a) Use of peripheral devices
Using the peripheral devices such as GPP, check what type of the error occurs on the PLC
CPU and, based on the error message on the PLC CPU and the check points (See item (2)
below), check each module and cable for installation and earthing statuses.

below), check each module and cable for installation and earthing statuses.
(b) Error timing
Check the timing of errors.
1) An error occurs when the power is turned on or immediately after the PLC is reset:
1) An error occurs when the power is turned on or immediately after the PLC is reset:
The error may be detected by the initial processing of the PLC CPU.
In this case, because the faulty module may not be identified, use only an END instruction
for the sequence program and remove the modules one by one until the error does not
occur.
When the error is eliminated after a specific module has been removed, the module may be
causing the error.
In this case, because the faulty module may not be identified, use only an END instruction
for the sequence program and remove the modules one by one until the error does not
occur.
When the error is eliminated after a specific module has been removed, the module may be
causing the error.
2) An error occurs after a specific operation or several seconds:
The error may occur in the sequence program. Check the error step where the error may
occur and the sequence program in that step.
The sequence program can be diagnosed throughout by merely using an END instruction
for the sequence program.
occur and the sequence program in that step.
The sequence program can be diagnosed throughout by merely using an END instruction
for the sequence program.
3) An error occurs when a specific device operates:
The mis-operation may be caused by noise.
Check that any signal line such as bus cable is not laid out too close to the operating
device. If the line is too close to the device, separate the line 100 mm or more from the
device.
Check that any signal line such as bus cable is not laid out too close to the operating
device. If the line is too close to the device, separate the line 100 mm or more from the
device.
(c) Locating the module where an error occurs:
Based on the PLC CPU error codes and special resister information (See item (2)), locate a
specific module where an error occurs.
specific module where an error occurs.
By the method stated above, correct the sequence program or replace the faulty module with a new
one, and check whether the error occurs.
If the error continues to occur, it may have another cause.
Referring to section 9.4.2, locate the error position further.

If the error continues to occur, it may have another cause.
