SL1 Device Test Fail-conditions

Post

Hello everyone,

if have a simple question. Did the test fail in Faulty and Normal mode if one of the two output bits "Qx_Error.." is set?
I ran the test with a new device and after the test the device works fine, but the error bits were set in Faulty Mode. (Test was executed with specification from 2021)

So in which cases the tests were failed exactly? Are the tests passed, if the pcap files looks good and the device works fine (with temporary communication settings)? Or which conditions should be check and how?

In general, can it be said that if the device works normally and the pcap data looks good, the test has been passed?

Thanks for your answers!

Hi Booster,

during the netload test normal communication no error shall appear. No entry in the diagnostics buffer of the PLC and no error in the output bits. During the faulty communication the device will "crash" so the error bits will be set. Please make sure that after the faulty test you reset the error bit so everything is fine in the program and the PLC.

If the error bits appear during normal communication the test is marked as failed.
