14.4  Troubleshooting Based on the Operation and Conditions of the Servomotor
14-63
Overtravel 
Occurred
The CCW-OT/CW-OT (CCW 
Drive Prohibit or CW Drive 
Prohibit) signal was input.
Check the external power 
supply (+24 V) voltage for 
the input signals.
Correct the external 
power supply (+24 V) 
voltage for the input 
signals.
−
Check the operating con-
dition of the overtravel 
limit switches.
Make sure that the 
overtravel limit switches 
operate correctly.
−
Check the wiring of the 
overtravel limit switches.
Correct the wiring of 
the overtravel limit 
switches.

The CCW-OT/CW-OT (CCW 
Drive Prohibit or CW Drive 
Prohibit) signal malfunc-
tioned.
Check for fluctuation in 
the external power supply 
(+24 V) voltage for the 
input signals.
Eliminate fluctuation 
from the external power 
supply (+24 V) voltage 
for the input signals.
−
Check to see if the opera-
tion of the overtravel limit 
switches is unstable.
Stabilize the operating 
condition of the over-
travel limit switches.
−
Check the wiring of the 
overtravel limit switches 
(e.g., check for cable 
damage and loose 
screws).
Correct the wiring of 
the overtravel limit 
switches.
−
The selection of the Servo-
motor stopping method is 
not correct.
Check the servo OFF 
stopping method set in 
Pn001 = n.X or 
Pn001 = n.X.
Select a Servomotor 
stopping method other 
than coasting to a stop.

Improper 
Stop Posi-
tion for 
Overtravel 
(OT) Signal
The limit switch position and 
dog length are not appropri-
ate.
−
Install the limit switch at 
the appropriate posi-
tion.
−
The overtravel limit switch 
position is too close for the 
coasting distance.
−
Install the overtravel 
limit switch at the 
appropriate position.
