Hi All,  
Please:  
After Loaded the EIO, the Omnicore Controller is in System Failure State.

One of the errors is shown in the picture below:

**1- And this error is regarding those lines:**

EIO\_SIGNAL:

#7 DO Controller is in motors ON state  
-Name “MotorOn\_Sts” -SignalType “DO” -Device “EN\_InternalDevice”  
-Access “All” -Label “162-161-7 Data[5].2”-DeviceMap “162”

SYSSIG\_OUT:

#7 DO The I/O signal is set when the controller is in motors on state.  
-Name “MotorOn” -Status “MotorOn\_Sts”

I have other errors for more Outputs and Inputs, similar to that one.  
The I/O engineering it is not yet loaded.  
The EIO is the only file now into the Controller.

**2- I tried to delete the file from the Controller, but I was not able to find it here:**  
at what folder could be?..I went into all of them.  
“Controller Explorer”

Any tip about this issue?

Thank you!

The error here is system I/O signals should be placed in the **sys.cfg,** and they are not.  
Let’s try to do that!
