Readback Contact Open or Welded N/O Contact

Phoenix Contact · ib il safe 2-eco

What does 7 mean?

An error in the reset circuit has occurred: either the readback contact of an external actuator is open (external error), or an internal normally open (N/O) contact is welded shut (internal error). This state is present when sensor circuits 1 and 2 are active, the reset/start circuit is activated, and the segment circuit is open. This prevents the reset circuit from operating correctly, thereby compromising machine safety.

Common Causes

  • Readback contact of the external actuator in the reset circuit is open
  • Internal normally open (N/O) contact is welded shut

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    For external errors: Check the external actuator for proper operation and verify the state of its readback contact

  2. 2

    For internal errors: Perform a power down reset (switch off and then re-apply operating voltage)

  3. 3

    After addressing the error and performing any power down reset, conduct a subsequent function test
