Faults and Warning Messages

A warning, generally a notification, that is not critical and does not require the machine to immediately shut off. A fault, generally a notification, is a critical system failure that stops machine operation. The severity of the fault depends on which system-stop mechanism is used.

Faults and warnings follow the same pattern and are identified by a four digit code:

G G X X

where GG is a two digit group code and XX is a two digit ID. All faults and warnings are grouped together to easily identify the part of the system having trouble.

Group Group #
10 System
11 File
15 Hardware
20 Power
25 Temperature
30 Software
4# Feedback (# indicates the feedback number)
50 Motor
55 Wake and Shake
60 Motion
70 Fieldbus
90 Safety

Retrieving Fault and Warning Information

Faults are retrieved on a per-axis basis with: AXIS#.FAULTS, where # is the axis number. Similarly, retrieve per-axis warnings with AXIS#.WARNINGS.

DRV.FAULTS returns faults across all axes, with the format X-#### where X is the axis number and #### is the four digit fault code. DRV.WARNING provides warnings across all axes with a similar format.

Feedback faults are reported with axis faults if the feedback is configured as a feedback source for the axis (e.g. AXIS#.IL.FBSOURCE, AXIS#.VL.FBSOURCE , AXIS#.PL.FBSOURCE ). If a feedback is not a feedback source for an axis, its faults are read with FB#.FAULTS where # is the feedback number.

Clearing Faults and Warnings

Once fault conditions are corrected, clear faults on an axis using AXIS#.CLRFAULTS . To clear faults on all axes with a single command, use DRV.CLRFAULTS .

The action table can also be used to clear faults. Action task 12: Clear Faults can be configured to trigger on edge conditions of the action sources. The action task ID selects the axis on which to clear faults.

The hardware enable input can also be used to clear faults. If AXIS#.HWEN.MODE is 0, faults for the axis are cleared on the rising edge of the hardware enable signal.

Fault History

Faults are logged to flash memory for convenience and debugging. To retrieve the last 50 faults with timestamps, use the keyword DRV.FAULTHIST.

To retrieve a more extensive history of faults, use DRV.FAULTHIST/all.

Fault Reaction

The drive’s reaction to a fault is determined by the nature and severity of the fault and the ability of the drive to control motion to zero speed. There are three supported fault reactions:

  • Perform a controlled stop to decelerate to zero speed, using the controlled stop configuration for the axis. See Controlled Stop.
  • Perform dynamic braking to decelerate the axis to zero speed. See Dynamic Braking.
  • Disable the power stage for the axis that allows the connected motor to coast to zero speed.

Fault Table

A list of all possible faults and warnings can be found by using DRV.FAULTLIST.

F9007 Safe brake parameters inconsistent. The safe parameter, AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.SBC​.BRAKE#ATTACHED, indicate a brake is attached, but non-safe brake keywords, AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE , BRAKE#.AXIS, do not and drive was enabled.

From the safety parameter screen in WorkBench under safe brake control (SBC), verify the SBC Brake parameters agree with the drive related parameters that a brake is configured or not.

 

The keywords AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE , BRAKE#.AXIS, and safe brake control configuration (SBC) all must agree with each other. For example, if no brake is present AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE should be 0 and safe parameters for SBC should indicate ‘Not Configured’. If brake is present, AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE should be 1, BRAKE#.AXIS should be assigned to proper axis, and safe parameters for SBC should be set to ‘Configured…’.

 

AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.SBC.BRAKE1ATTACHED and AXIS#.SAFEPARAM.SBC.BRAKE2ATTACHED can be verified for the currently active safe parameters.

W6010 Target position crossed due to stop command. The motion task crosses the target position after triggering an AXIS#.STOP command. This can happen when processing a change on the fly motion task and triggering an AXIS#.STOP command close to the target position of the currently running motion task. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6011 Homing index pulse not found. A homing mode with index detection is activated and index pulse is not detected while moving across the range determined by the hardware limit switches. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6012 Homing reference switch not found. A homing mode with reference switch detection is activated and the reference switch is not detected while moving across the range determined by the hardware limit switches. Activation of any new motion or use ofAXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6014

Motion task activation failed.

Activation of the motion task failed due to incompatible parameters or motion task does not exist. This warning can appear upon an AXIS#.MT.MOVE command.

Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning. Check motion task settings and parameters to make sure that the values entered will produce a valid motion task.

W6015 Homing procedure failed. Homing error observed during the operation of homing procedure. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6017 Motion task target position is out. This warning appears with W6014. This warning is triggered when you try to trigger a motion task with an absolute target position outside of the selected modulo range (see also AXIS#.MT.CNTL). Move the absolute target position of the motion task within the modulo range. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6018 Motion task target position is out of software limits. Motion Task position has passed a software limit switch. Review software limit switch configuration and motion task configurations, and remove incompatibilities.
W6019 Invalid bit combination in the motion task controword. This warning appears with W6014. This warning is triggered when you try to trigger a motion task with an invalid bit combination in the motion task controword (see also AXIS#.MT.CNTL). Correct the AXIS#.MT.CNTL setting for the specific motion task. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6020 1:1 profile cannot be triggered on the fly. This warning appears with W6014. This warning is triggered when you try to trigger a 1:1 profile table motion task while another motion task is currently running. 1:1 profile table motion tasks should be started from velocity 0. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6021 Customer profile table is not initialized. This warning appears with W6014. This warning is triggered when you try to trigger a motion task that uses a customer profile table for generating the velocity profile and when the selected profile table is empty (see AXIS#.MT.CNTL and MT.TNUM ). Change the MT.TNUM parameter for this specific motion task to use an initialized profile table. Activation of any new motion or use of AXIS#.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6022 Motion task activation is currently pending. A motion task tried to execute before the previous task was able to execute. Review application timing and allow for adequate time for each motion task to activate before requesting a subsequent motion.
W6023 Homing maximum distance exceeded. Homing maximum distance exceeded. Review tuning and parameter AXIS#.HOME.MAXDIST.
W6024 Motion task is not initialized. This warning appears with W6014. This warning is triggered when you try to trigger a non-initialized motion task. Initialize the motion task before starting the task. Activation of any new motion or use of DRV.CLRFAULTS clears the warning.
W6025 Homing and feedback mismatch A homing mode is selected which cannot work with the current feedback. For example, homing modes 3, 6, 10 and 11 require the feedback to provide a Z/index pulse and not all feedbacks provide this signal. If the homing move is started then it may run continuously because it is missing a signal from the feedback. Select a different homing mode or change the feedback being used.
W6026 Current homing mode requires AXIS#.HOME.IPEAK to be set by user. The homing mode selected requires that AXIS#.HOME.IPEAK is set to non-zero. Set AXIS#.HOME.IPEAK to a value non-zero.
W6027 Current command saturated. AXIS#.IL.CMD has exceeded AXIS#.IL.LIMITP or AXIS#.IL.LIMITN . Increase current limits ( AXIS#.IL.LIMITP or AXIS#.IL.LIMITN ) or reduce load by decreasing trajectory acceleration/velocity.
W6028 Gear feedback source is invalid. The feedback selected as the gearing source is uninitialized or assigned to the same feedback being used as the commutation, velocity, or position feedback source. Verify AXIS#.GEAR.FBSOURCE is not 0 and does not match the feedback being used for AXIS#.IL/VL/PL.FBSOURCE.
W6029 Gantry Position error higher than warning threshold. GANTRY.PL.ERR exceeded GANTRY.PL.ERRWTHRESH. Increase warning threshold, fix mechanical linkage, improve tuning or remove disturbances.
W6030 Target position was overshot due to invalid Motion Task activation. The drive cannot decelerate from its current speed to reach the end point of the second Motion Task without moving past it. Increase the deceleration rate in the move or trigger the move earlier.

Note: This warning is only generated if AXIS#.FAULT6004.ACTION is set to 4.

If isochronous mode cannot be enabled, the warning can be disabled and bypassed by setting PROFINET.ENISOWARNING to 0.
W7014 EtherNet/IP dynamic map size exceeds assembly size. Adjustable sized EtherNet/IP assemblies are in use and either the dynamic command or response maps are larger than the assembly sizes. Either reduce the number of parameters mapped in the command/response maps or increase the size of the adjustable size EtherNet/IP assemblies being used by the PLC. See Dynamic Assemblies.
W7015 Fieldbus velocity command too low. Fieldbus commanded a velocity lower than the minimum limit.

Note: This warning is only generated if AXIS#.FAULT7015.ACTION is set to 4.
Increase fieldbus velocity command. Velocity is clamped at AXIS#.VL.LIMITN.
W7016 Fieldbus velocity command too high. Fieldbus commanded a velocity higher than the maximum limit.

Note: This warning is only generated if AXIS#.FAULT7016.ACTION is set to 4.
Reduce fieldbus velocity command. Velocity is clamped at AXIS#.VL.LIMITP.
W7018 Fieldbus cyclic position command not received in time. One or more fieldbus position setpoints took too long to arrive. If this occurs three or more times in a row, it will trigger F7019. Note: This warning is latched until the drive stops following controller position. Configure timing properly on the controller side. Ensure the drive and controller clocks are being synchronized. Verify EIP.PLLMODE is set to 1 (CIP Sync).
W9000 Warning: Safe torque off Safe torque off function has been triggered. W9000 is only generated if AXIS#.SAFE.STO.REPORTFAULT is 1. Reapply supply voltage to STO if safe to do so.
W9007 Safe brake parameters inconsistent. The safe parameters, AXIS#.SAFE.SBC.BRAKE#ATTACHED, indicate a brake is attached, but non-safe brake keywords, AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE , BRAKE#.AXIS, do not and drive was enabled.

From the safety parameter screen in WorkBench under safe brake control (SBC), verify the SBC Brake parameters agree with the drive related parameters that a brake is configured or not.

 

The keywords AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE, BRAKE#.AXIS, and SBC configuration all must agree with each other. For example, if no brake is present AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE should be 0 and safe parameters for SBC should indicate ‘Not Configured’. If brake is present, AXIS#.MOTOR.BRAKE should be 1, BRAKE#.AXIS should be assigned to proper axis, and safe parameters for SBC should be set to ‘Configured…’

 

AXIS#.SAFE.SBC.BRAKE1ATTACHED and AXIS#.SAFE.SBC.BRAKE2ATTACHED can be verified for the currently active safe parameters.
