Why does DriveOvervoltage Fault happen in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 Servo Drives?
- K
  Kristen JohnsonAug 22, 2025
  A DriveOvervoltage Fault happens due to excessive power regeneration or if the DC bus voltage is too high (over 820V for a 460V system or over 410V for a 230V system). To resolve this, try changing the deceleration or motion profile. You might also need to use a larger system (motor and Kinetix 6000 drive) or install a shunt module. Also, verify that the input voltage is within the specified limits.

How to fix MotorOvertemp Fault on Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000?
- K
  Kyle KingAug 25, 2025
  To fix a MotorOvertemp Fault, operate within the continuous torque rating for the ambient temperature (40 °C (104 °F) maximum). You can also lower the ambient temperature and increase motor cooling. Check the motor wiring at the MF connector on the IAM/AM module and verify that the proper motor has been selected.

What causes Bus Undervoltage Fault in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000?
- B
  Brandon RileyAug 26, 2025
  A Bus Undervoltage Fault occurs when the DC bus voltage is below limits with three-phase power present. To address this, verify the voltage level of the incoming AC power and check the AC power source for glitches or line drops. Installing an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) on your AC input may also help.

How do I troubleshoot GroundShortFault (Ground Fault) in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000?
- B
  Bryan BrooksAug 27, 2025
  To troubleshoot a GroundShortFault, check the motor power and input power wiring for excessive ground current. If the motor has an internal ground short, it may need to be replaced. For internal malfunctions, disconnect the motor power cable from the drive and enable the drive with the current limit set to 0. If the fault clears, a wiring error or motor anomaly exists. If the fault remains, call your sales representative. If you have a 230V system, remove the ground from the control power input, source control power from three-phase input power, or add an isolation transformer for control power.

What should I do if I see a PowerPhaseLoss Fault on my Rockwell Automation Servo Drives?
- J
  Jennifer RobertsAug 29, 2025
  If you see a PowerPhaseLoss Fault, it means one or more phases of the input AC power is missing. You should check the input AC voltage on all phases. Also, disable the axis before removing power.

How to resolve DriveOvertemp Fault (System Overtemperature) in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 Servo Drives?
- K
  Kimberly ToddAug 31, 2025
  A DriveOvertemp Fault indicates the converter thermal switch has tripped. You can reduce acceleration rates, reduce the duty cycle (ON/OFF) of commanded motion, or increase the time permitted for motion. Consider using a larger IAM converter module. Also, check for clogged vents or a defective fan, and ensure that cooling is not restricted by insufficient space around the unit.

What to do for MotFeedbackFault (Motor Feedback Loss) on Rockwell Automation Servo Drives?
- C
  christine65Sep 2, 2025
  If you encounter a MotFeedbackFault indicating a motor feedback loss, check the motor encoder wiring to ensure it is not open, shorted, or missing. You can also run the Hookup test in RSLogix 5000 software.

Why is there no rotation in my Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 Servo Drives?
- B
  beckystephensonSep 4, 2025
  If there is no rotation, check the motor wiring and connections to ensure they are not loose or open. Remove any foreign matter lodged in the motor. Verify the servo system sizing to ensure the motor load is not excessive. If the bearings are worn, return the motor for repair. If the motor has a brake, check the brake wiring and function. Also, check the coupling to ensure the motor is connected to the load.

Why does my Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 Servo Drives motor jump when first enabled?
- T
  Timothy WernerSep 6, 2025
  If the motor jumps when first enabled, check the motor wiring for errors. Run the Hookup test in RSLogix 5000 software. Also, verify that the proper motor is selected.

What causes HardOvertravel Fault (+/- Hard Overtravel) in Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 Servo Drives?
- T
  tylerwestSep 8, 2025
  A HardOvertravel Fault occurs when the axis moves beyond the physical travel limits. Check the wiring, verify the motion profile, and verify the axis configuration in the software.
