What to do if my Festo Control Unit shows error code 5?
If your Festo Control Unit displays error code 5, this indicates that the power supply is insufficient, experiencing voltage drops, or is out of tolerance range. To resolve this, ensure that the power supply is adequate for the unit's requirements.
Why does my Festo Control Unit display error code 6?
If the Festo Control Unit shows error code 6, it means there's an issue with the pressure supply. This can be due to a few reasons: the pressure supply was interrupted, compressed air was interrupted during self-test, or the air supply on the secondary side is too high, causing pilot pressure drops. You should re-establish compressed air supply and check the compressed air supply, closing any actuators that might be blowing air or using a vacuum suction nozzle.
What does error code 2 mean on a Festo MS6 SV E 10V24 Control Unit?
If your Festo Control Unit is showing error code 2, the cause is bouncing on the enable signals. To fix this, ensure that you are only using debounced contacts, such as those for protective guards or doors.
What causes error code 8 on a Festo Control Unit?
If your Festo Control Unit displays error code 8, it could be due to enable signals being outside of the specified range or a defective multi-pin plug socket NECA or cable. Ensure you comply with the specifications. Check the multi-pin plug socket NECA or cable; if it's defective, replace it.
What does it mean when my Festo Control Unit shows error code 8 or 11?
Error codes 8 or 11 on your Festo Control Unit can appear if the PLC emits test pulses that are off-set to the enable signals, or due to malfunction caused by electrical or electromagnetic effects. To address this: switch off test pulses or use NECA MP5 plug connector. Also, comply with the maximum length of the signal lines, connect earthing correctly and observe minimum wall distance.
What to do if valve doesn't switch but LED is on in Festo MS6 SV E 10V24 Control Unit?

How to troubleshoot a valve that won't switch on a Festo Control Unit?
If the valve on your Festo Control Unit isn't switching, it could be due to an insufficient pressure supply or a faulty bridge between contacts 5 and 6.
