What it means

System signal configuration: "An error occurred while configuring system I/O signal <name>." Recorded on the MotorOff and AutoOn system signals.

What to check

  • A system signal that cannot be configured at start-up means that the cabinet will be able neither to switch off the motors nor to switch to automatic via this path.
  • Check that the unit carrying the signal is present and powered — the error typically appears when the bus is absent at start-up.
  • Then check the signal declaration in the I/O configuration.
  • Note: In the field log, both occurrences (MotorOff, AutoOn) occur 31 seconds after a bus off (71301): the configuration was run while the bus was still absent. Restarting once the bus is stable is then sufficient — this is not a configuration error.
