Internal bus fault during register communication with the I/O module n (Fault code 5, argument n)

Wago · Modular I/O System PROFIBUS DP

What does I/O-LED 5-n* mean?

An internal bus fault occurred specifically during attempts to communicate with the internal registers of the nth I/O module. This indicates a problem with the module's internal registers or its ability to correctly process and respond to commands over the internal bus, affecting its functionality. The module 'n' is identified by the number of blink pulses.

Common Causes

  • Defective I/O module 'n' unable to communicate via its internal registers
  • Signal integrity issue on the internal bus specifically affecting register access for module 'n'
