What it means

Communication fault with a configured I/O unit: the cabinet cannot establish the link with a declared device (welding unit powered off, bus cable disconnected, unit missing).

What to check

  • Check that the equipment concerned is powered on.
  • Check the bus cable and its connectors.
  • Check the declaration of the unit in the I/O configuration and its address.
  • Adjust the Unit Trustlevel if the unit is intentionally absent.
  • Note: Code from the configuration/I/O domain, but whose root cause is almost always hardware. Read together with 71367 and 71424.
