6 – 62 HEIDENHAIN Service Manual iTNC 530
6.4 Sequence for Finding Errors in the Control Loop
In the event of error messages regarding movement, acceleration or standstill, for example:
Positioning error
Excessive servo lag
Nominal speed value too high
Movement monitoring
Standstill monitoring
or in case of errors, for example:
Poor workpiece quality
Unusual noise during axis movements
Unusual vibrations
... you can check the machine components in a defined order to find the fault. --> See flowchart
in this chapter.
Integrated
oscilloscope
The integrated oscilloscope for iTNC 530 is a handy tool for analyzing errors in the control loop.
Activation and operation --> See “Integrated Oscilloscope” on page 10 – 99.

The torque-determining current I nominal in particular is an important characteristic for the
mechanics of the axis concerned (stiffness, blunt tool, lubrication, utilization, etc.)
Other signals, such as I2-t (mot.), I2-t (Lt.) und Utilization are calculated from the
current.
