F010

No Access

Allen-Bradley · Logix and SLC PLC

What does F010 mean?

This fault indicates that the system attempted to access a resource or perform an operation for which it lacks authorization. Similar to privilege errors, this prevents unauthorized interaction with the controller or its data.

Common Causes

  • User or application attempting to access a protected area without credentials.
  • Security permissions configured to deny access to the specific resource.
  • Network firewall blocking access to the controller.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Verify the current user account's credentials and assigned security roles or groups, ensuring it has the necessary privileges for the attempted operation.

  2. 2

    Inspect the PLC's security configuration within Logix Designer or RSLogix 500 (Controller Properties -> Security) to confirm access levels for the resource.

  3. 3

    Check the project file for any embedded security settings, password protection, or project locking mechanisms that may be active.

  4. 4

    Confirm that the communication path (e.g., RSLinx Classic driver, Ethernet configuration) is correctly established and not subject to network security restrictions.
