Hey everyone,
Trying to bench test the I/O on a program that I converted from a PLC-5 processor to a ControlLogix processor but still using the PLC-5 I/O as remote I/O and I'm running into an issue that's left me scratching my head. Currently there are 5 RIO racks (0, 2 3 4 5 - rack 1 exists physically but with no cards in it), but when I set the ASB module to rack 0, the ACTIVE light on the module blinks, indicating that the remote adapter (CLX processor I believe) is not actively controlling I/O. When I switch the ASB module to be any other rack, there are no issues, only when I'm on rack 0. The real rack and my test rack are both full racks (8 I/O groups), and I've tried deleting and recreating the rack in the RIO setup in my CLX program, as well as verifying the chassis and ASB module dip switches, but I can't seem to figure it out. As a side note, I can see inputs change when I'm testing rack 0, but I can't make outputs come on, which is what I assumed it means by "Remote adapter not actively controlling I/O," that it will still scan inputs but will not set outputs.
If I go to the ASB properties for rack 0 under my DHRIO card, it says Status: Running, and Adapter Faulted: No, but the DHRIO module status itself says Minor Fault: Recoverable. Not sure if that gives any clues, but just something I noticed.
