Diagnostics

Overview of contents

This chapter shows you the meaning of the LED displays on your DP/DP Coupler. The tables provide information on error states indicated by the LEDs, the possible causes and suggested corrective measures. In the next section, you are made familiar with the diagnostic system of the DP/DP Coupler. An example is used to illustrate the evaluation of a diagnostic frame.
