F01038 (A) ACX: Loading the parameter back-up file not successful
Drive object: All objects
Reaction: A_INFEED: NONE (OFF2)
SERVO: NONE (OFF1, OFF2, OFF3)
VECTOR: NONE (OFF1, OFF2, OFF3)
Acknowledge: IMMEDIATELY
Cause: An error occurred when loading PSxxxyyy.ACX or PTxxxyyy.ACX files from the CompactFlash card or from the vol-
atile memory of the Control Unit.
Fault value (r0949, interpret hexadecimal):
Byte 1: yyy in the file name PSxxxyyy.ACX
yyy = 000 --> consistency back-up file
yyy = 001 ... 062 --> drive object number
yyy = 099 --> PROFIBUS parameter back-up file
Byte 4, 3, 2:
Only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.
Remedy: - if you have saved your project data using the commissioning software, carry out a new download for your project.
Save using the function "Copy RAM to ROM" or with p0977 = 1 so that all of the parameter files are again completely
written into the CompactFlash card.
- replace the CompactFlash card.
Reaction upon A: NONE
Acknowl. upon A: NONE
F01039 (A) ACX: Writing to the parameter back-up file was unsuccessful
Drive object: All objects
Reaction: A_INFEED: NONE (OFF2)
SERVO: NONE (OFF1, OFF2, OFF3)
VECTOR: NONE (OFF1, OFF2, OFF3)
Acknowledge: IMMEDIATELY
Cause: Writing to at least one parameter-back-up file PSxxxyyy.NEW on the CompactFlash card was unsuccessful.
- on the CompactFlash card in the directory /USER/SINAMICS/DATA/ at least one parameter back-up file has the
"read only" file attribute and cannot be overwritten.
- there is not sufficient free memory space on the CompactFlash card.
- the CompactFlash card is defective and cannot be written to.
Fault value (r0949, interpret hexadecimal):
Byte 1: yyy in the file name PSxxxyyy.NEW
yyy = 000 --> consistency back-up file
yyy = 001 ... 062 --> drive object number
yyy = 099 --> PROFIBUS parameter back-up file
Byte 2: xxx in the file name PSxxxyyy.NEW
xxx = 000 --> data save started with p0977 = 1
xxx = 010 --> data save started with p0977 = 10
xxx = 011 --> data save started with p0977 = 11
xxx = 012 --> data save started with p0977 = 12
Byte 4, 3:
Only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.
Remedy: - check the file attribute of the files (PSxxxyyy.*, CAxxxyyy.*, CCxxxyyy.*) and, if required, change from "read only"
to "writeable".
- check the free memory space on the CompactFlash card. Approx. 40 kbyte of free memory space is required for
every drive object in the system.
- replace the CompactFlash card.
Reaction upon A: NONE
Acknowl. upon A: NONE
F01040 Save parameter settings and carry out a POWER ON
Drive object: All objects
Reaction: OFF2
Acknowledge: POWER ON
Cause: A parameter was changed in the drive system that means that it is necessary to save the parameters and re-boot
(e.g. p0110).
