F109-44

Plausibility fault in encoder interface (A3401 = encoder 1 and A3402 = encoder 2)

SEW Eurodrive · MOVIDRIVE MDX60B/61B Variable Speed Drive

What does F109-44 mean?

The encoder interface (A3401 or A3402) does not match the configured data. This suggests a mismatch between the physical encoder type/connection and the drive's settings.

Common Causes

  • Encoder data stream indicates a deviation from expected patterns.
  • Mismatch in position or velocity feedback from encoder 1 (A3401) or encoder 2 (A3402).
  • Faulty encoder communication protocol interpretation.
  • Environmental interference corrupting encoder signals.

Repair Steps & Checklist

  1. 1

    Check encoder type and configuration (SSI/incremental).

  2. 2

    Check the encoder connection/wiring.

  3. 3

    Check the polarity of the encoder data.

  4. 4

    Check function of the encoder.
