Chapter 1 Overview This quick start is designed to provide you with the information you need to get your system up and running quickly. Use this document if you are knowledgeable about Ethernet PLC-5 products, but may not have used one or more of them recently. The information we provide is geared to “jog your memory”. What You Need to Do If you need more information, see the Enhanced and Ethernet PLC-5 Programmable Controllers User Manual, publication number 1785-6.5.

2-6 Set up the Hardware Power Up the System Power up the system. Check the LED display on the processor. If your system is operating properly, the PROC LED should be steady red. If the PROC LED is not red, see chapter 4 for troubleshooting information before you install any I/O modules. Install the I/O Modules Locking Bar Install each I/O module and connect the wiring arm.
Chapter 3 Set up the Software 1 Install the software 2 Start the programming software 3 Powerup the system The following instructions are general. For specific information, see the documentation set for your particular software package. Install the Software and Set Up the Programming System Before you install your programming software, make certain you meet the system requirements for that software – sufficient disk space, memory, etcetera.
3-2 Set up the Software Power Up the System Power up the system if you have not done so already. Check the LED display on the processor. If your system is operating properly, the PROC LED should be steady red and the message “Processor RAM is faulted. Press to clear memory” should appear on the display. See the following table to proceed. If the PROC LED is not red, turn to chapter 4 for troubleshooting information. If your keyswitch is in this position: Publication 1785-10.
