1) I have shut off the board in keep relays but the probe will still light up. Keep relays are a software way of turning on and off parts of the ladder. SYSTEM>PMC>PMCPAR>KEEPRELAYS. You will need to turn ON PWE under SETTINGS with the control in MDI. Your ladder manual in the beginning or end has a list of keep relays as well as INPUTS (X diagnostics), OUTPUTS (y diagnostics).
If you go to SYSTEN>PMC>STATUS, X search, the first line will show the Q setter probe inputs.
I would also check the Qsetter down switch. If this does not make, you will not go to the tool setting page. Check that in X diagnostics as well.
Your Blue book in the back of the machine has a list of all the keep relays as well.
