Description
Drives rarely crash, but if a crash occurs, information that can help diagnose the cause of a crash is saved to the
nonvolatile (NV) memory within the drive. After the drive is restarted, you can use the DRV.CRASHDUMP com-
mand to retrieve this diagnostic information, which can be emailed to Kollmorgen for further support.
If the drive crashes (display flashes an F and three bars), it saves the diagnostic information to a specific block of
the drive NV memory. The DRV.CRASHDUMP command then prints the diagnostic information from this NV
memory block. Subsequent crash conditions will overwrite the NV memory block. Since the NV memory block is
overwritten, but never erased, the DRV.CRASHDUMP command always shows the diagnostic information for
the most recent crash.
