11.  Alarm  and  Warning 
 
— 11-19 — 
11.3.19.  Alarm F4: Emergency Stop 
 This alarm does not report a problem of the Motor System. This alarm is the input signal for emergency 
stop to the Driver Unit from the user device side.   
  During the state of emergency stop, the Motor servo is off and the dynamic brake functions to 
stop the Motor motion.   
  Deactivation of the emergency stop input clears this alarm.   
Table 11-28: Cause and remedy for the alarm F4   
Wrong setting of the input EMST  signal 
port polarity. 
  The shipping set of the input EMST port is normally closed contact. If the 
port is not connected the alarm occurs.   
Refer to “3.4.3. Polarity Setting of Control Input Port (Normally Open 
Contact and Normally Closed Contact)”.   
  Take measures against the problem, and then clear the EMST input. 
  Check wiring between the input EMST to the Emergency .Stop switch.   
  Check the Emergency Stop switch itself.   
11.3.20.  Warning F5: Program Error   
 The program positioning operation is one of the positioning operations available for the Driver unit Model 
EDD.   
This warning occurs when the start and execution of the program specified by the user are not properly 
performed.   
  The command TA/HI identifies the cause.   
Table 11-29: Cause and remedy for the warning F5   
The System is executing other program. 
  The input RUN (Program start) is disabled while the output BUSY (In-
operation) is closed.   
  When a mechanical contact is used for the input RUN, check for chattering 
that may cause two or more rising signals.   
  Check if the input RUN is already ON due to noise.   
  If the warning occurs due to causes above, increase the setting of the 
parameter NW (Anti-chattering timer) of the port which is assigned to the 
input RUN (Shipping set: PI5) referring to “8.1.3.1. Editing Control Input 
Function”.   
There is no command is set in the 
specified channel.   
  Confirm if the selection of the program channel is right.   
  Check if one of the input PRG0 to PRG7 is settled 1 [ms] before an input of 
the RUN signal.   
A command that cannot be carried out in 
the current condition is involved in the 
channel program. 
  For example, the Motor servo must be activated in case of a positioning 
command to accept the input RUN.   
  Refer to “9.3. Glossary of Command and Parameter” for conditions to 
execute each command.   
A data that is out of specification is set in 
the channel program. 
  For example, the warning F5 occurs if the positioning command AQ6 is set 
to the program even the parameter QR (Dividing number, user scale) is set 
to QR4 in a positioning operation with user unit. 
The input STP is ON, or an alarm or a 
warning that prohibits execution of the 
channel program.   
  Confirm if the Input STP (Stop) is OFF.   
  Confirm if an alarm or a warning is occurring.   
(1) The input ACLR (Alarm clear) or the command CL (Clear alarm) clears the warning.
