Posted 28 Jun 2021 Would someone be so kind as to document a method to clear a fault on a Micrologix 1000. Does one need programming cable and software or is there another method to clear a fault to see if it returns? regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 28 Jun 2021 Have you looked at Chapter 14 of the Users Manual? Pages 274 and following, gives a nice flowchart. https://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/literature/documents/um/1761-um003_-en-p.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 30 Jun 2021 Dear wizard. Thank you for your reply. However, I'm still lost, How does one physically perform an "F10" on that PLC, Micrologix 1000 I see no means of interface other than the round pin connector, no buttons, ?? The device is not networked. Is there something I need to toggle or shunt etc? See image Below. I have a programming cable and was able to obtain RSLinx_classic software. Is there another method to perform an F10 without software and cable? Is any other software required? Regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 30 Jun 2021 I'm not sure whether F10 still applies or if that was older software. The steps prior to that - Monitor S:6 to determine the fault - will require getting online with the software. RSLinx is the communications interface, but you will need RSLogix500 in order to get online and view the program and check that status word. RSLogix500 talks to RSLinx which talks to the PLC. For the Micro 1000 there used to be a freebie package available. It used to be posted on this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 30 Jun 2021 Looks like the software is in the Downloads/Demo software area. I tried to copy the link: https://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?/files/file/868-rslogix-500-micro-starter-lite/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
