Exercise 2: Slave Error/Fault Analysis

Step Procedure Result

1 Copy OB 86 into your program file and load
the variables relevant for the slave
diagnostics.

Caution: In OB86, you must change the

data type for the variable
OB86_RACKS_FLTD to DWORD to be able
to evaluate the error codes.
2 Simulate failure of a slave by unplugging it. The LED 'SF DP' on the CPU
comes on.
3 Evaluate the variables.
4 Program SFC 13 and evaluate the indicators
as far as possible.
5 Test the DP diagnostics blocks. You are pleased again.
