PLC Fault
User Action
Backplane communications with PLC fault; lost request
Check that PLC CPU is running normally (usually in Run mode)
†
Check to make sure you are not sending COMMREQs faster than
the Ethernet interface can process them.
†
Bad local application request; discarded request
Check for valid COMMREQ command code.
†
Bad remote application request; discarded request
Try to validate the operation of the remote node.
†
Cannot locate remote node; discarded request
Error reported when message received where IP address cannot
be resolved. Error may indicate that remote host is not operational
on the network. Check that remote host is operational on network
and its addresses are correct.

Message from PLC for unknown Ethernet interface task. Check
COMMREQ function block.
Comm_req – Wait mode not allowed
Check COMMREQ to make sure sent in no-wait mode.
LAN data memory exhausted – check parms; resuming
The Ethernet interface does not have free memory to process
communications.
†
LAN I/F capacity exceeded; discarded request
Verify that connection limits are not being exceeded.

Ethernet interface is not properly connected to the network. Check
the connection to the network hub or switch.
LAN system-software fault; aborted connection
resuming
Internal system error.
†
LAN system-software fault; restarted LAN IF
LAN system-software fault; resuming
Module software corrupted; requesting reload
Catastrophic internal system error. Contact GE Automation – NA.
Module state doesn’t permit Comm_Req; discarded
COMMREQ received when Ethernet interface cannot process
COMMREQ. Make sure Ethernet interface is configured and online.
Unsupported feature in configuration
Attempt has been made to configure a feature not supported by the
Ethernet interface. Check CPU revision; order upgrade kit for CPU
and/or Ethernet interface.
†
If the problem persists, contact GE Automation – NA.
