Chapter 2 Configure the Interface
Setting a Fault Action
By default, when the drive is controlled by the network or receives information
from the network; communication is disrupted. The drive responds by
faulting, if it is using I/O from the network. Possible causes include that the
network cable is disconnected, the controller is idle (in Program mode or
faulted), or Explicit Messaging for drive control is disrupted. You can configure
another response to these faults:
• Disrupted I/O communication by using 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action]
•An idle controller by using 0:361 - [Idle Flt Action]
• Disrupted Explicit Messaging for drive control via PCCC or the CIP-
based network Assembly Object by using 0:363 - [Msg Flt Action]
Changing the Fault Action
Set the values of 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action], 361 - [Idle Flt Action], and
363 - [Msg Flt Action] to an action that meets your application requirements.
Figure 8 - Edit Fault Action HIM Screens
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. To determine the action
for the interface and the drive when I/O communication is disrupted, the
controller is idle, or Explicit Messaging for drive control is disrupted, use these:
• 0:360 - [Comm Flt Action]
• 0:361 - [Idle Action]
• 0:363 - [Msg Flt Action]
By default, these parameters fault the drive. You can configure these parameters so
that the drive continues to run. However, verify that the settings of these parameters
do not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the drive,
verify that your system responds correctly to various situations (for example, a
disconnected network cable, controller in idle state, or Explicit Message control
disruption).
Value Action Description
0 Fault The drive is faulted and stopped (default).
1 Stop The drive is stopped, but not faulted.
2 Zero Data The drive is sent ‘0’ values for data. This value does not command a stop.
3 Hold Last The drive continues in its present state.
4 Send Flt Cfg The drive is sent the data that you set in the fault configuration parameters:
• 0:364 - [Flt Cfg Logic]
• 0:365 - [Flt Cfg Ref]
• 0:366 - [Flt Cfg DL 01] … 381 - [Flt Cfg DL 16]).
