Alarms
Alarms have the following properties:
● They do not have a direct effect in the converter and disappear once the cause has been
removed
● They do not need have to be acknowledged
● They are signaled as follows
– Status display via bit 7 in status word 1 (r0052)
– At the Operator Panel with a Axxxxx
– Via STARTER, if you click on TAB
at the bottom left of the STARTER screen
In order to pinpoint the cause of an alarm, there is a unique alarm code and also a value for
each alarm.
Alarm buffer
For each incoming alarm, the converter saves the alarm, alarm value and the time that the
alarm was received.
Figure 11-2 Saving the first alarm in the alarm buffer
r2124 and r2134 contain the alarm value - important for diagnostics - as "fixed point" or
"floating point" number.
The alarm times are displayed in r2145 and r2146 (in complete days) as well as in r2123 and
r2125 (in milliseconds referred to the day of the alarm).
