Hi, all,
I have three ML 1400's in house and all are being fed by the same power supply and have the same I/O's. I've discovered a problem with two of them that they're passing voltage through de-energized output contacts (on the ML1400 itself). One is passing about 7VDC, while the other is passing 16VDC, which is enough to keep my relays energized. The first ML1400 is showing a nice, clean 0.0VDC on open contacts, as I would assume it should be. I have removed the wires on the output to confirm that it is the contact on the ML1400 itself that is hot, and I have verified that I have 24.9VDC going in to the output block.
So, did I just get two out of three bad PLC's, or is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, solutions or guidance!
