Faults and Warning Messages
Jump to a section on this page:
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 |

| 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.
