Fault Type(s):
1 = Driver current exceeded
hardware limits.
2 = Driver current exceeded
congured over-current limits.
3 = Driver commanded PWM
active, using diagnostic
pulses. Voltage measured
high, should be low. Typically
caused by driver failure, or
driver pin short to high.
4 = Driver commanded PWM
active, using diagnostic pulses.
Voltage measured low, should
be high. Either open circuit, or
driver pin short to ground.
5 = Driver commanded PWM is
0, and voltage measured low
(should be high). Either open
circuit, or driver pin short
to ground.
7 = Driver undercurrent -
Monitored current is below
undercurrent threshold.
Fault types 1-2 are always checked.
Fault types 3-5 are only checked
if driver checks are enabled.
1. Open or short on driver load.
2. Dirty connector pins at controller
or contactor coil.
3. Bad connector crimps or
faulty wiring.
4. Driver overcurrent, as set by the
Driver x Overcurrent parameter.
5. See Programmer » Controller
Setup » Outputs » Driver x »
Driver x Overcurrent.
Set: The assigned load
hold driver is either open
or shorted, or exceeded its
overcurrent setting.
Clear: Correct the open or short,
and then Reset Controller.
