

sensor fault (e.g. wire break, short circuit, earth fault).



states (e.g. contact open/closed, on/off, high/low, actuator on/off).

The illustration below shows the arrangement of LEDs on the I/O boxes.

Fig. 3: N3000-IMC - overview of status LEDs

Explanations for the previous illustration:

1. Check terminal X6, X7 (iBus connection) and

the iBus cable.

2.

Remove power supply from terminal X1, then
connect it again  re-initialisation. Wait for
30 s  if iBus remains defective go to next
step.

CAUTION

Disturbances in the N3000 system can effect
the entire system. To avoid damaging
equipment, always take appropriate initial
action (e.g. switching off the motor, etc.) before
beginning with troubleshooting.

NOTICE

Some malfunctions can be more quickly and specifically
located with the aid of the N3000-DSP display. The
table below will point this out.

READ

For more information about troubleshooting, please
read the N3000 Service Manual NMS-KD-0015.

Check sensor and sensor lead.

Many alarms (2 or
more) simultaneously
indicate a sensor
fault (SF)

Suspect: only one channel may
have a real sensor fault (SF).

The defective channel may serve
as a source or reference channel
(source channel, cold junction
channel).

Example: The channel for cold
junction temperature has SF  all
thermal elements dependent on
this channel will also show SF.

Check sensor and sensor lead.

If an N3000-DSP display unit is available:

1. Call up the CHANNEL DETAILS for the

channel XXXX with a SF.

2. Is there a "source channel" or "cold junction

channel" message present?



No, no message: check this channel
(sensor, wire break, etc.)



Yes, message present: check the channel
indicated by the message as a "source
channel" or "cold junction channel"
(sensor, wire break etc.)
