WHAT BEST DESCRIBES THE PROCESS OF SYSTEM LEVEL TROUBLESHOOTING?
USING A METHODICAL SERIES OF TESTS TO ISOLATE THE PROBLEM TO A SPECIFIC COMPONENT
WHAT STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN BEFORE TROUBLESHOOTING THE OPERATION OF AN INPUT DEVICE AND ITS INTERACTION WITH THE PLC PROGRAM?

Measure voltage between the PLC processor and DC power supply
WHEN ARE I/O FORCES FIRST APPLIED IN A PLC?
USER MUST CONFIRM THE FORCES BEFORE THEY ARE APPLIED
WHAT IS THE NEXT CHECK YOU SHOULD MAKE TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM IF A PLC INPUT INDICATOR DOES NOT TURN ON AND OFF WHEN THE INPUT DEVICE IS OPERATED?
MEASURE SIGNAL AT INPUT MODULE TERMINAL WHEN INPUT DEVICE IS OPERATED
