ModuleDiffBlock Error

As of Automation_Builder 2.1.1 the user can read diagnosis information about modules below any PROFINET IO device (e.g. CI50x or CM589).

If a modular PNIO device detects an issue with one of its modules, like plugged module does not match configuration, it reports a ModuleDiffBlock error.

Example

../_images/892c68cf43fd14620a317f340b23341f
  1. Double-click the node CM589_PNIO_4_Device and open view Diagnosis for PROFINET slave.

    In the section Node state appears Node inactive and in the section Node data the Diagnosis state >The IO-Device reported a ModuleDiffBlock…during…<.

  2. Right-click the node CM589_PNIO_4_Device and click Check modules

    A popup-window appears.

    It shows a list of all modules that are different from the current configuration.

    The list contains the slot number(s) of the erroneous module so that a user knows which module(s) causes the issue.

Note

The related context menu item Check modules is visible in online mode of V2 PLCs only.

Note

Automation_Builder does not show the popup-window in case of no differences.

In any case the Automation_Builder adds a message with the result in the message window.
