Module Connection Fault

Allen-Bradley · Compact 5000 I/O Serial Module

What does I xx .ConnectionFaulted mean?

This boolean tag indicates if a connection between the module and its owner-controller is not running. A value of 1 signifies that the connection is faulted or not established. A value of 0 indicates the connection is running normally. This fault prevents the module from exchanging data with the controller.

Common Causes

  • Module configuration is missing, incomplete, or incorrect in the Logix Designer application
  • Physical network cable failure preventing communication with the controller
  • Controller is not in a Remote Run or Run mode, preventing module connection
  • Module is inhibited in the Logix Designer application
