Troubleshooting and Maintenance

0 Overcurrent
The current flowing between P and N 
of the converter exceeded the 
specified value.
· The Servo Drive is faulty (faulty 
circuit, faulty IGBT part, etc.).
· The Servomotor cable is short-
circuited between phases U, V, 
and W.
· The Servomotor cable is ground-
faulted.
· Motor windings are burned out.
· The Servomotor wiring contact is 
faulty.
· The relay for the dynamic brake 
has been welded due to frequent 
servo ON/OFF operations.
· The command pulse input timing 
is the same as or earlier than the 
servo ON timing.
· Disconnect the Servomotor cable, 
and turn ON the servo. If the 
problem immediately recurs, 
replace the Servo Drive with a new 
one.
· Check to see if the Servomotor 
cable is short-circuited between 
phases U, V and W by checking 
for loose wire strands on the 
connector leads. Connect the 
Servomotor cable correctly.
· Check the insulation resistance 
between phases U, V, and W of 
the Servomotor cable and the 
grounding wire of the Servomotor. 
If the insulation is faulty, replace 
the Servomotor.
· Check the balance between the 
resistance of each wire of the 
Servomotor. If resistance is 
unbalanced, replace the 
Servomotor.
· Check for missing connector pins 
in Servomotor connections U, V, 
and W. If any loose or missing 
connector pins are found, secure 
them firmly.
· Replace the Servo Drive.
Do not turn ON the Servo for at 
least ten minutes after using the 
dynamic brake.
· Wait at least 100 ms after the 
Servo is turned ON, then input 
commands.
1 IPM error
15 0 Servo Drive overheat
The temperature of the Servo Drive 
radiator or power elements exceeded 
the specified value.
· The ambient temperature of the 
Servo Drive exceeded the 
specified value.
· Overload
· Improve the ambient temperature 
and the cooling conditions of the 
Servo Drive.
· Increase the capacities of the 
Servo Drive and the Servomotor. 
Set longer acceleration and 
deceleration times. Reduce the 
load.
