Output Module problem

5 posts in this topic

We have Fx1N-60MT-001 plc unit 

And we need to connect an extension module FX2N-8EYT 

But after connection of the module the power led on the module is ON 

When trying to check the module output, it was not found

Is there a configuration required ?

Is there any thing Missed ?

Is the software not compatible with the module (I'm using Gxworks2) ?

Please help me !

If you only add that new extension module and the PLC is under voltage, that extension module is not automatically found. Only powered. You need to disconnect the main power supply and connect it back. Recently I had similar problem with an analogue card and the main power supply disconnecting/connecting helped me to solve it.

You should check M8034 bit. It is "All outputs disable bit", and it sets off all external outputs, but I think that LEDs remain on...

They are not found by the software. Once plugged in the extra I/O just exist and can be addressed.

Try a test line of code that brings on output Y30 (The start of the 8EYT's outputs)
