To help troubleshoot your 1336 IMPACT drive, the drive logs any
faults or warnings in either the fault or warning queue. The faults
and warnings that are contained in the queues are either configurable
or non-configurable.

Refers to faults that you:
Configurable

could damage the drive if allowed to persist.
You can reset the soft faults by pressing the stop button on the HIM.
