Dear Experts, Today I encounter a very strange thing with our cement plant CPU 410-5H. The operator report that he has loose process control from all tags on WinCC. I start Checking the Operating Mode from CPU -> PLC -> Operating mode and the message came that the CPU can not be accessible from ES (Engineering Station) I decide to check the PLC and found that all the LED on the CPU starts from INTF, EXTF, BUSxF, MAINT, IFMxF, RUN, and STOP are Flashing and all the CP's (2 Ethernet, 2 Profibus) are in STOP mode I tried to switch Off the CPU and Switch it On The LEDs were not flashing at this moment but the Stop LED was Flashing 2 Hz I waited for some time but The CPU was not Restarting. I decide to Perform "Resetting the CPU410-5H to factory settings" and wait for the CPU to restart and It was Successful. I load HW config. and Entire CFC downloads then Everything back to normal. My Questions? 1. What may be the Causes of such a scenario? 2. Will this event have an impact on the CPU and may this repeat? 3. What measure should I take to prevent this from happening again? Anyone can help us regarding this Issue I have attached a Diagnostic buffer message Best Regards Kannan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AttachmentAS3Diagnose_020221.txt (620 Downloads) |

hi Kans23, When all LED are blinking the CPU is in DEFECTIVE. Here you can see the entry from your diagnosic buffer:
this event could be triggered by other events, like:
It is possible that you have some interferences in your station, that makes the CPU to detect a defect. I could also see that your FW-version is very old. An update can help to avoid errors like this. find the newest version here: Operating system update: CPU410-5H Process Automationregards, |
