12.5 Errors and warnings handling
Errors may be detected by the controller if a precaution limit is exceeded, or if a hardware failure occurs, e.g.
Each error corresponds to a value of monitoring M64, readable by the user. It shows which error has taken
place in order to handle it adequately. Some limits will give a warning before the error appears, to allow the
user to solve the problem. Each warning corresponds to a value of monitoring M66, readable by the user.
Messages also appear on the DSC2P and DSC2V LCD display (16 characters).
When an error is identified, the Errors reference list (§19.
) is used to enable the user to identify the cause of
the problem.
12.5.1 Troubleshooting
Note: Troubleshooting is permitted only for ETEL technicians and agreed distributors!
Points to check in the Errors reference list are indicated as follows:
Enc = x Error may be due to the encoder and its cable.
Mot = x Error may be due to the motor and its cable.
Hrd = x Error may be due to the hardware of the controller.
Hrd Error may be due to the a part of the hardware of the controller (F7= fuse7, DSP = Sharc,...)
K value(s) Error may be due to a bad setting of the listed parameter(s).
PS = x Error may be due to the power supply (DSO-PWS).
TEB = x Error may be due to the Turbo-ETEL-Bus communication protocol.
EBL2 = x Error may be due to the ETEL-Bus-Lite 2 communication protocol.
Other Error may be due to the reason described in the cell.
SW Res = x It is possible to reset the error by software (RST command).
HW Res = x It is recommended or compulsory to reset the error by hardware (RSD command or switch
off/on)
Brk = OFF/ON OFF or ON means that this error activates or deactivates the dynamic braking (when used).
