Fault Type(s): 1
1. Encoder Steps parameter does not
match the actual motor encoder.
2. Verify parameter settings: AC
Motor Setup » Quadrature Encoder
» Encoder Steps.
Set: Detected wrong setting of
the Encoder Steps parameter.
Clear: Ensure the Encoder
Steps parameter matches the
actual encoder.

Fault Type(s):
Reports the CAN Object ID
of parameter.
1. Parameter value detected outside
of the limits.
2. Use CIT or the 1313HHP to view
the parameter's range and adjust
the parameter’s value.
Set: Parameter detected
outside of limits.

Fault Type(s): 1
The rmware in the controller
is incorrect.
1. The CRC of the application or OS
does not match.
2. The application was built with an
incompatible OS version.
Set: The loaded software is not
compatible with the controller
hardware.
Clear: Load the matching
software.
Verify that the controller model
matches the cdev version for
the project and the VCL Studio
application.

0x2321
Fault Type(s): 1
1. Vehicle movement sensed after the
EM Brake has been commanded
to set.
2. EM Brake will not hold the motor
from rotating.
Set: After the EM Brake was
commanded to set and time
has elapsed to allow the
brake to fully engage, vehicle
movement has been sensed.
Clear:
1. Activate the Throttle (EM
Brake type 2).
2. Activate the Interlock (EM
Brake type 1).
Position Hold is engaged
when Interlock = On.
Fault Action:
None, unless a fault action
is programmed in VCL.
