Hello All,
I have a PLC 5/15 processor and I am trying to run an analog input card (1771-IFE A) for testing purposes. I just want to see if the input card works, so I figured I could get in the input image table in RS Logix 5 and watch the decimal number change with the input I am testing.
The problem I am having is that I am not sure whether I have my PLC 5 CPU running properly. When I power up the rack, the remote light is on solid red. The CPU is communicating with the PC and I am able to go online with the processor but I don't think it is seeing the input card properly. When I go into the input image table on the left-hand side, I change the radix from binary to decimal and then the addresses listed are as follows:
I:000
I:010
I:020
I:030
Getting back to the PLC/5 though, the remote I/O LED is on solid red and the PROC LED is on solid green. The comm. LED is flashing green. The light on the input card is solid green, the fault LED is off. I would think that I should see 16 addresses listed in the input image table, as opposed to the 4 I listed above. Please advise, thanks. - O
