7. LED Indicators
PWR (Green): On = power OK; Off = power fault
LINK (Amber): Flashing = active; Solid = idle; Off = no link
FAULT (Red): On = hardware/software fault
REDUND (Blue): On = redundancy active
8. Installation & Safety
Power Off: Disconnect cabinet power before insertion/removal.
ESD Protection: Use anti‑static wristband/mat.
Insertion: Align with slot guides; push until front latch clicks.
Cabling: Connect MMI/field cables per drawings; tighten connectors, maintain shielding.
Grounding: Connect module ground to cabinet earth (<1 Ω resistance).
Power‑Up: Restore power; verify LED status; run diagnostics via engineering station.
9. Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Routine Checks: Inspect LEDs, cables, connectors quarterly; clean vents annually.
Common Issues:
No MMI Comm: Check cable seating, termination, module address.
Intermittent Signals: Verify shielding, grounding, and EMI sources.
Firmware: Update via Emerson tools; match controller firmware version.
