Troubleshooting
Regeneration 
overload
Occurs during 
operation.
Regenerative energy 
exceeds tolerance.
Calculate the regenerative 
energy, and connect an exter-
nal Regeneration Resistor with 
the required regeneration 
absorption capacity.
Setting error in Pn600 
(regeneration resistor 
capacity)
Set Pn600 correctly.
Main-circuit power supply 
voltage is outside toler-
ance range.
Change the main-circuit power 
supply voltage to within toler-
ance range.
Overvoltage Occurs when 
power supply is 
turned ON.
Main circuit power supply 
voltage is outside toler-
ance range.
Change the main circuit power 
supply voltage to within toler-
ance range.
Main-circuit power supply is 
damaged.
Replace the Servo Driver.
Occurs when Ser-
vomotor is decel-
erating.
Load inertia is too great. Deceleration time is too long.
Calculate the regenerative 
energy, and connect an exter-
nal Regeneration Resistor with 
the required regeneration 
absorption capacity.
Main circuit power supply 
voltage exceeds tolerance 
range.
Reduce main circuit power 
supply voltage to within toler-
ance range.
Occurs during 
descent (vertical 
axis)
Gravitational torque is too 
large.
Add a counterbalance to the 
machinery to lower gravita-
tional torque.
Slow the descent speed.
Calculate the regenerative 
energy, and connect and exter-
nal Regeneration Resistor with 
the required regeneration 
absorption capacity.
Low voltage Occurs when the 
control circuit 
power supply only 
is turned ON. 
Control panel error Replace the Servo Driver.
Occurs when the 
main circuit power 
supply is turned 
ON.
Main circuit power supply 
voltage is outside toler-
ance range.
Change the main circuit power 
supply voltage to within toler-
ance range.
Main circuit power supply is 
damaged.
Replace the Servo Driver.
