Fault type Brief description Cause Troubleshooting
L2 Invalid configuration of
t
he external device
monitoring (EDM)
The configuration of the external
device monitoring (EDM) is invalid.
The configuration is unsuitable for
the wiring.
b
Chec
k whether the external
device monitoring is connected
correctly.
b
Use Safety Designer to check the
configuration.
L3 Fault in the exter‐
nal de
vice monitoring
(EDM)
A faulty signal is applied at the
external device monitoring (EDM).
The allowed tolerance time has
been exceeded.
b
Chec
k whether the connectors
are wired correctly and operating
correctly.
L8 Fault in the reset input An invalid signal is applied at a reset
in
put. The reset signal is applied for
too long.
b
Chec
k the reset pushbutton, the
wiring, and any other compo‐
nents affected.
L9 Short-circuit at the
r
eset input
Exactly the same signal is applied at
a reset input as at another input, an
OSSD or an output. There is possibly
a short-circuit.
b
Chec
k the wiring for cross-cir‐
cuits.
M1 Incompatible configura‐
t
ion of the data output
The data output is configured in a
way that the device does not sup‐
port (e.g., invalid start angle).
b
R
econfigure the data output.
M2 Data output: Data
pac
kets lost
The data output could not transmit
all data packets (e.g., buffer mem‐
ory full).
b
C
onfigure the data output so that
less data is transmitted.
M3 Configuration not veri‐
f
ied
The configuration is not verified.
b
V
erify the configuration.
N1 Invalid input signal The signal applied at the control
in
puts is not assigned to a monitor‐
ing case. The signal is applied for
longer than the set input delay +1 s.
b
Chec
k the configuration with
Safety Designer.
b
Check the working process of the
machine.
N2 Incorrect switching
seq
uence
The configured switching sequence
was interrupted by the new monitor‐
ing case.
b
Chec
k the machine’s work proc‐
ess.
b
Change the configured switching
sequence monitoring.
N3 Invalid input signal The signal applied at the static con‐
t
rol inputs does not match the com‐
plementary condition. The signal is
applied for longer than 1 s.
The input signal for switching
between monitoring cases received
via the network is invalid. The invalid
signal is applied for longer than 1 s.
b
Chec
k the control of the control
inputs.
b
Check the control over the net‐
work.
N4 Incorrect activation of
t
he control inputs via
the network
The input signal for activating
switching between monitoring cases
received via the network is invalid.
The invalid signal is applied for lon‐
ger than 1 s.
b
Chec
k the control over the net‐
work.
N5 Invalid input signal The input signal for switching
be
tween monitoring cases received
via the network is invalid. The invalid
signal is applied for longer than 1 s.
b
Chec
k the control over the net‐
work.
N6 Invalid monitoring case
number
The monitoring case number
r
eceived via the network does not
match the configuration of the
device. The incorrect number is
applied for longer than 1 s.
b
Chec
k the configuration with the
Safety Designer.
b
Check the control over the net‐
work.
