9.2 Troubleshooting by Reading LEDs
The LEDs on the 545/555 CPUs are labeled CPU GOOD, RUN, and BATT
GOOD. These LEDs provide CPU status as shown in Table 9-2.
NOTE: Since the CPU receives power from the base power supply module,
the power supply must be on and functioning correctly to turn the LEDs on.
If the base power supply module is defective or turned off, all CPU
indicators will be off.
Table 9-2 CPU Indicators
Indicator Status Meaning
CPU GOOD On CPU functioning with no fatal errors.
On CPU (analog and discrete) is in the RUN mode.
RUN
Flashing
Analog (Loops, Analog Alarms, and SF programs) is
in the RUN mode and discrete (RLL program) is in
the PROG mode.
On Battery is good and switch 9 is set to the On position.
BATT GOOD
Flashing
Battery is marginal and switch 9 is set to the On
position.
Off
Battery is discharged or Switch 9 is set to the Off
position.
Data in the CPU is backed up by a lithium battery. Status of the battery
LED is determined as follows:
• When the battery dipswitch is set to the On position, a battery test is
initiated within one second. The battery status LED is updated with
the test result.
• While the battery dipswitch is in the On position, the battery is
retested whenever the hour byte of the time-of-day clock changes value.
The battery status is reflected by the results of the last completed test.
• When the battery dipswitch is set to the Off position, battery-low status
is indicated within approximately one second.
