Determining if Communication has Timed Out with Any Device
If communication times out with at least one device (module) in the I/O 
configuration of the controller, the I/O status indicator on the front of the 
controller flashes green.
• The GSV instruction gets the status of the I/O status indicator and 
stores it in the I_O_LED tag
• If the I_O_LED tag equals 2, the controller has lost communication 
with at least one device
where:
I_O_LED is a DINT tag that stores the status of the I/O status 
indicator on the front of the controller.
