F01663
SI P1 (CU): Copying the SI parameters rejected

Cause: In p9700, the value 87 or 208 is saved or was entered offline. This is the reason that when booting, an attempt is made to copy Safety Integrated parameters from processor 1 to processor 2. However, no safety-relevant function has been selected on processor 1 (p9501 = 0, p9601 = 0). This is the reason that copying is not possible.

Note: This fault does not result in a safety stop response.



Remedy:

  • Set p9700 to 0.

  • Check p9501 and/or p9601 and if required, correct.

  • Restart the copying function by entering the corresponding value into p9700.

SI Motion P1 (CU): Steady-state (static) 1 signal at the F-DI for safe acknowledgment

Cause: A logical 1 signal is present at the F-DI configured in p10006 for more than 10 seconds. If, at the F-DI no acknowledgment was performed for safe acknowledgment, then a steady-state logical and 0 signal must be present. This avoids unintentional safety-relevant acknowledgment.



Remedy: Set the Failsafe Digital Input (F-DI) to a logical 0 signal (p10006).
A01669 (F, N)
SI Motion: Unfavorable combination of motor and power unit

Cause: The combination of motor and power unit used is not suitable for using safe motion monitoring functions without an encoder. The ratio between the power unit rated current (r0207[0]) and rated motor current (p0305) is greater than 5.

  • xxxx = 9501: “n < nx hysteresis and filtering" not permissible with "Extended functions without selection".

  • xxxx = 9522: The gear stage was set too high.

  • xxxx = 9547: Parameter p9547 has been set too low.

  • xxxx = 9585: For Safety without encoder and synchronous motor, p9585 must be set to 4.





Remedy: Correct the parameter value.


  • If xxxx = 9547: Set parameters p9546/p9346 and p9547/p9347 acc. to rule: p9546 >= 2 x p9547; p9346 >= 2 x p9347.

  • If xxxx = 9522 and 9585: Correct the parameter value.


F01682

A07321
Drive: Automatic restart active

Cause:

The automatic restart (AR) is active.



Remedy:


  • the automatic restart (AR) should, if required, be inhibited (p1210 = 0).

  • an automatic restart can be directly interrupted by withdrawing the switch-on command.


F07330
Flying restart: Measured search current too low

Cause:

During a flying restart, it was identified that the search current reached is too low.



Remedy:

Check the motor feeder cables.
F07331

Drive: Flux controller configuration

Cause: The configuration of the flux control (p1401) is contradictory.

Alarm value (r2124, interpret hexadecimal): ccbbaaaa hex

aaaa = Parameter, bb = Index, cc = fault cause

1: Quick magnetizing (p1401.6) for soft starting (p1401.0).

2: Quick magnetizing for flux build-up control (p1401.2).

3: Quick magnetizing (p1401.6) for Rs identification after restart (p0621 = 2).



Remedy:
For fault cause = 1:

  • Shut down soft start (p1401.0 = 0).

  • Shut down quick magnetizing (p1401.6 = 0).


For fault cause = 2:

  • switch-on flux build-up control (p1401.2 = 1).

  • Shut down quick magnetizing (p1401.6 = 0).


For fault cause = 3:

  • Re-parameterize Rs identification (p0621 = 0, 1)

Remedy:

  • adapt the limits to the signal level (p2267, p2268).

  • check the actual value normalization (p0595, p0596).


See also: p0595 (Technological unit selection), p0596 (Technological unit reference quantity), p2264 (Technology controller actual value), p2267, p2268.
A07428 (N)
Technology controller parameterizing error

Cause: The technology controller has a parameterizing error.

Alarm value (r2124, interpret decimal):

1: The upper output limit in p2291 is set lower than the lower output limit in p2292.



Remedy:
For alarm value = 1: Set the output limit in p2291 higher than in p2292.

See also: p2291, p2292.
F07435 (N)
Drive: Setting the ramp-function generator for sensorless vector control

Cause: During operation with sensorless vector control (r1407.1) the ramp-function generator was stopped (p1141). An internal setting command of the ramp-function generator output caused the set setpoint speed to be frozen.



Remedy:

  • deactivate the holding command for the ramp-function generator (p1141).

  • suppress the fault (p2101, p2119). This is necessary if the ramp-function generator is held using jogging and the speed setpoint is simultaneously inhibited (r0898.6).


A07440
EPOS: Jerk time is limited

Cause: The calculation of the jerk time Tr = max(p2572, p2573) / p2574 resulted in an excessively high value so that the jerk time is internally limited to 1000 ms.

Note: The alarm is also output if jerk limiting is not active.



Remedy:

  • increase the jerk limiting (p2574).

  • reduce maximum acceleration or maximum deceleration (p2572, p2573).


See also: p2572, p2573, p2574.
A07441
LR: Save the position offset of the absolute encoder adjustment

Cause: The status of the absolute encoder adjustment has changed.

In order to permanently save the determined position offset (p2525) it must be saved in a non-volatile fashion (p0971).



Remedy:
Not necessary.

This alarm automatically disappears after the offset has been saved.

See also: p2507, p2525.
F07442 (A)
LR: Multiturn does not match the modulo range

Cause: The ratio between the multiturn resolution and the modulo range (p2576) is not an integer number.

This results in the adjustment being set back, as the position actual value cannot be reproduced after switch-off/switch-on.



Remedy:
Make the ratio between the multiturn resolution and the modulo range an integer number.

The ratio v is calculated as follows:

1. Motor encoder: v = (p0421 * p2506 * p2505) / (p2504 * p2576)

2. Direct encoder: v = (p0421 * p2506) / p2576

See also: p0412, p0432, p0433, p2504, p2505, p2506, p2576.
F07443 (A)
LR: Reference point coordinate not in the permissible range

Cause: The reference point coordinate received when adjusting the encoder via connector input p2599 lies outside the half of the encoder range and cannot be set as actual axis position.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal): Maximum permissible value for the reference point coordinate.



Remedy:
Set the reference point coordinate to a lower value than specified in the fault value.

See also: p2598, p2599.
F07450 (A)

  • standstill window set too small (p2542).

  • standstill monitoring time set too low (p2543).

  • position loop gain too low (p2538).

  • position loop gain too high (instability/oscillation, p2538).

  • mechanical overload.

  • Connecting cable, motor/drive converter incorrect (phase missing, interchanged).

  • when selecting motor identification, select tracking mode (BI: p2655[0] = 1 signal).





Remedy:
Check the causes and resolve.
F07451 (A)
LR: Position monitoring has responded

Cause: When the position monitoring time (p2545) expired, the drive had still not reached the positioning window (p2544).

  • positioning window parameterized too small (p2544).

  • position monitoring time parameterized too short (p2545).

  • position loop gain too low (p2538).

  • position loop gain too high (instability/oscillation, p2538).

  • drive mechanically locked.





Remedy:
Check the causes and resolve.
F07452 (A)
LR: Following error too high

Cause: The difference between the position setpoint position actual value (following error dynamic model, r2563) is higher than the tolerance (p2546).

  • the drive torque or accelerating capacity exceeded.

  • position measuring system fault.

  • encoder cable interrupted.

  • position control sense incorrect.

LR: Position actual value preprocessing error

Cause: An error has occurred during the position actual value preprocessing.



Remedy:
Check the encoder for the position actual value preprocessing.

See also: p2502 (LR encoder assignment).
A07454
LR: Position actual value preprocessing does not have a valid encoder

Cause: One of the following problems has occurred with the position actual value preprocessing:

  • an encoder is not assigned for the position actual value preprocessing (p2502 = 0).

  • an encoder an an encoder data set have been assigned, however, the encoder data set does not contain any encoder data (p0400 = 0) or invalid data (e.g. p0408 = 0).





Remedy:
Check the drive data sets, encoder data sets and encoder assignment.

See also: p0187, p0188, p0400, p2502.
A07455
EPOS: Maximum velocity limited

Cause: The maximum velocity (p2571) is too high to correctly calculate the modulo correction.

Within the sampling time for positioning (8 ms), with the maximum velocity, a maximum of the half modulo length must be moved through. p2571 was limited to this value.



Remedy:
Reduce the maximum velocity (p2571).
A07456
EPOS: Setpoint velocity limited

Cause: The actual setpoint velocity is greater than the parameterized maximum velocity (p2571) and is therefore limited.



Remedy:

  • check the entered setpoint velocity.

  • reduce the velocity override (CI: p2646).

  • increase the maximum velocity (p2571).

  • check the signal source for the externally limited velocity (CI: p2594).

2: Jog 1 or jog 2 and start referencing (p2589, p2590, p2595).

3: Jog 1 or jog 2 and activate traversing task (p2589, p2590, p2631).

4: Direct setpoint input/MDI and starting referencing (p2647, p2595).

5: Direct setpoint input/MDI and activate traversing task (p2647, p2631).

6: Start referencing and activate traversing task (p2595, p2631).



Remedy:
Check the appropriate input signals and correct.
F07458
EPOS: Reference cam not found

Cause: After starting the search for reference, the axis moved through the maximum permissible distance to search for the reference cam without actually finding the reference cam.



Remedy:

  • check the “reference cam” binector input (BI: p2612).

  • check the maximum permissible distance to the reference cam (p2606).

  • if axis does not have any reference cam, then set p2607 to 0.


See also: p2606, p2607, p2612.
F07459
EPOS: No zero mark

Cause: After leaving the reference cam, the axis has traversed the maximum permissible distance between the reference cam and zero mark without finding the zero mark.



Remedy:

  • check the encoder regarding the zero mark.

  • check the maximum permissible distance between the reference cam and zero mark (p2609).

  • use an external encoder zero mark (equivalent zero mark) (p0494).


See also: p0494, p2609.
F07460
EPOS: End of reference cam not found

Cause: During the search for reference, when the axis reached the zero mark it also reached the end of the traversing range without detecting an edge at the binector input “reference cam” (BI: p2612).

Maximum traversing range: -2147483648 [LU] … -2147483647 [LU]



Remedy:

  • check the “reference cam” binector input (BI: p2612).

  • repeat the search for reference.


See also: p2612.
A07461
EPOS: Reference point not set

Cause: When starting a traversing block/direct setpoint input, a reference point is not set (r2684.11 = 0).



Remedy:
Reference the system (search for reference, flying referencing, set reference point).

Cause: When the runtime groups of the free function blocks attempted to log on with the sampling time management, the logon of at least one runtime group was rejected.



Remedy: Check number of available hardware sampling times (T_sample < 8 ms) (r7903).
F50511
FBLOCKS: Memory no longer available for free function blocks

Cause: When the free function blocks were activated, more memory was requested than was available on the Control Unit.



Remedy: Not necessary.
A50513 (F)
FBLOCKS: Run sequence value already assigned

Cause: An attempt was made to assign a run sequence value already assigned to a function block on this drive object to another additional function block on the same drive object.



Remedy: Set another value that is still available on this drive object for the run sequence.
A50517
FBLOCKS: Int. meas. active

Cause: A Siemens internal measurement has been activated.



Remedy: Carry out a POWER ON (switch-off/switch-on) for the Control Unit involved.

FBLOCKS: Sampling time of free runtime group differs at download

Cause: In the STARTER/SCOUT project that was downloaded, the hardware sampling time of a free runtime group was set to a value that was either too low or too high.



Remedy:

  • Correctly set the sampling time of the runtime group.

  • If required, take all of the blocks from the runtime group.
