I have looked through prior threads and think I have found the answer in a 2002 post but I'm going to post my problem anyway and see what you guys think.
I have a SLC 500 (5/04) in a 10 slot rack, in slot 9 I have a 1747-SN.
The remote module is a 10 slot chassis with a 1747-ASB in slot 0, it has a 4 channel analog input card in slot 1, 4 channel analog output card in slot 2, a 120 volt 16 point digital input card in slot 3 and a 8 point digital output card in slot 4 that is DC i believe.
Here is the issue, SN card Comm flashes red, ASB card flashes green but displays ADE. This unit was set up about ten years ago and not by me or the company I work for, I don't know how long its been down to be honest but I need it up now because I need to read my DI's for a new purpose. Nothing is wired to the analog I/O's or the 8 point output card. But I can't read my DI's.
The G file is set up as rack 0, group 0 = full rack, I know that on the ASB my switches are as follows:
SW1:11111111
SW2:?
SW3:?
I can get this info in a few days for switch 2 & 3 but I honestly can't remember and right now I'm not on site. Do you guys have an idea to my problem? Blue hose is good but no resistors were installed, I don't know for sure what switch 2 & 3 should be either.
This problem eluded me all day yesterday and I hate to spend months trying to resolve it the cabinet was built for future growth but if I can't get RIO working I'm thinking of changing out the ASB to a processor and doing away with the SN and putting that chassis on the DH+ with the rest of the SLC's.
Thanks for your help, I wish I was a little more familiar with RIO but I haven't had a bunch of experience with it.
