When down loading code to the PLC (1769-L33ERM) I get a "loss of communication" error for the VFD's in the controller status. I think this is normal. I have a "loss of VFD communication" error monitor that causes our system to trigger the Fatal error state when it is detected that the VFD's are off line. This code is in place because I have had the VFD's drop communication while our machine was running in production mode.
Is there a way to know that the PLC is in a "down load" condition so that the machine will not go into the Fatal state? Does the controller status show a fault in addition to the loss of communications in the controller status?
Thanks,
