MP-V Controller LEDs
There are five LEDs on the front panel of the MP-V controller.

The MP-V controller Ethernet and Status indicators comprise two LEDs (green/yellow and green/red respectively) in one structure.
The LEDs indicate status of the MP-V controller and the ongoing communication.
Status LED
The MP-V controller Status LED indicates the condition of the device.

LED Patterns |
Condition |
|
Green, constant |
Normal operation, status OK MP-V controller firmware application running |
|
Green, flashing (~1 Hz) |
Device restarting, wait MP-V controller firmware application running |
|
Red, constant |
Detected error, attention required |
|
Red, flashing (~1 Hz) |
Device operates, but a problem needs attention |
|
Red/green, flashing (~1 Hz) |
MP-V controller I/O board receiving software upgrade, wait Do not interrupt power to the controller. For more information, see the following Important note. |
|
Amber, constant |
MP-V controller firmware boot applet running |
|
Amber, flash |
Device restarting, wait MP-V controller firmware boot applet started |
|
Amber/green, flashing (~1 Hz) |
MP-V controller firmware is being upgraded. It is typically the firmware main application, but it can also be a boot applet. |
Avoid power interruptions to the device during the brief period when the Status LED is flashing red and green. An interruption causes problems with the I/O processor upgrade and can result in corrupt firmware. You can view the evidence of a corrupt processor when the device reports itself as an “MP-C-15A.” A corrupt I/O processor can lead to the loss of the reset button and/or I/O functionality, as well as the inability to upgrade the I/O processor and/or the device.
RS-485 LEDs
The RS-485 LEDs indicate the condition of the RS-485 network data communication.
The labeling of the RS-485 LEDs differs between different hardware versions of the MP-V controller models. Pour plus d'informations, voir Differences Between MP-V Hardware Versions .
