Good morning! I'm not very experienced with Siemens Sinamics, but we have a CU320-2-DP with all four LEDs illuminated. The RDY LED is red, the DP LED is orange, the "Blank" LED is orange, and the OPT LED is also orange. Despite the LED indicators, the CU is operating normally without any apparent issues. Do you have any insights on what the problem could be? Do you believe the CU320-2-DP unit needs to be replaced? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Are these lights solid or flashing? Can you confirm the colors are accurate?
Hello there! From what you've described, it seems like your CU320-2-DP might be in the 'State-Controlled Stop' mode, where the RDY LED exhibits a continuous red light and the others are solid orange. This state usually doesn't cause a noticeable issue in operations, nonetheless, it's not the normal run-state. Try resetting the control unit or performing a power on reset. However, please don't rush into replacing the unit. Find a professional Siemens technician to diagnose the issue first before making that decision. Always remember: "When in doubt, check it out!" Good luck!
Morning! The LED colors you're describing suggest a couple of things. The red RDY LED generally indicates a hardware issue while the orange LEDs can suggest communication interruptions or a configuration fault. However, since your CU is operating normally, it might only be a minor hiccup rather than a severe problem. Before deciding on replacing the entire unit, I'd recommend checking all the connections and possibly resetting the unit. If the LED color codes persist, then it might be best to have an expert look into it or consider replacement. But don't worry, these guys are built tough - they can run quite efficiently even with small errors.
