S5- 115U CPU-943B in Stop Mode With Error LED QVC and BASP

Post by vicyubal »

I have S5 System which CPU is 115U CPU-943B,
It is running for several years but suddenly it stops with ERROR LEDS light on STOP, QVC and BASP.
With this problem, I resetted it completly by unpowering the CPU, removing the back-up batteries & EPROM for 10 mins and power it again.
BY powering it again, I reset the CPU by holding the switch to "OR" mode and clicking the "RUN/STOP" key switch 3-4 times.
The error was gone and I inserted again the EPROM and dowloaded the backup PLC program but it backs again to "STOP" mode with the same error.
So, How can I put back this CPU to running condition.

Thanks,

Vic

QVZ is triggered when CPU can't access I/O module (this error occurs if a module fails to acknowledge within 160 µs of being
accessed). I suggest you to create empty OB23 and upload to CPU. If CPU will run then you should replace faulty card. For detailed diagnostic you should check also ISTACK.

Dear friend,
from my experience,
1. I suggest you to check if the cards are powered by power supply.
2. I meet several times poor connection on rack.

Good luck.

Do the same with the inserted module EPROM.

Good day everyone, i had faced the same problem like vicyubal with my S5 CPU-115U 493B plc. I had try the recommended which had given in this topic and i replaced with the new CPU but i still get the same problem occur. What can i traced that 2 of function block (FB) had made the QVZ LED appear. Before this, I had upload the block stage by stage (e.g OB,PB,DB & FB) into the CPU.

1) Upload all OB-->No QVZ fault-->start PLC=OK
2) Upload all PB-->No QVZ fault-->start PLC=OK
3) Upload all DB-->No QVZ fault--> start PLC=OK
4) Upload all FB-->2 of all FB had made the QVZ LED appeared while uploading even tough the 2 FB had programmed inside it -->start PLC=ISTACK
5) Check backup battery=OK,Tried change new battery and re-upload program from stage 1 until 4=still have QVZ fault.
6) Compared between programming inside the CPU with the source (PC)= No error comparison.

My questions are how to analyze the ISTACK and could it be the FB problem caused the QVZ fault and how the FB can caused QVZ?

Hi
have you check condition : missing caled DB?
Try to have a look at program structure.
