P16

CAN sync telegram transfer error

The sync telegram from the master (PLC) is out of sync cycle or not received, indicating a communication issue. This can also occur if the controller is enabled too fast, before the sync telegrams are stable.

P19

Input values at X9 are limited

The function block DFIN is limiting the input values at X9, which causes a loss of increments. This suggests an issue with the digital frequency connection or a mismatch in master/slave settings, affecting precise control.

PEr

Program error

An error has been detected in the program flow of the device. This signifies an internal software issue that prevents normal operation.

PI

Fault during parameter initialisation

An error was detected during the parameter set transfer between two devices, or the parameter set does not match the controller (e.g., if data was transferred from a higher-power controller to a lower-power controller). This can lead to incorrect drive configuration.

PL

Error during rotor position adjustment

The rotor position adjustment process was cancelled, often because an Sd7 or Sd8 error occurred during adjustment with an absolute value encoder. Without a successfully executed rotor position adjustment, the drive may carry out uncontrolled movements.

PR0

Error in parameter set

This error occurs when the operating system software has been updated and requires the storage of the Lenze setting to ensure compatibility. This typically happens after a firmware upgrade.

PR1

Checksum error in parameter set 1

A fault occurred when loading parameter set 1, which could be due to an interruption during transmission via the keypad or incompatibility between the stored parameters and the loaded software version. The Lenze setting is loaded automatically.

Sd2

Resolver error at X7

The resolver cable connected to X7 is interrupted, or the resolver itself is faulty. This prevents accurate motor position feedback, which is crucial for precise motor control.

Sd3

Encoder error at X9

The encoder cable connected to X9 is interrupted, or pin X9/8 is not connected (input signal 'Lamp Control' at X9/8 is LOW). This leads to a loss of encoder feedback, which can cause uncontrolled drive movements if not addressed.

Sd5

Encoder error at X6/1 and X6/2

The current signal at analog input X6/1 and X6/2 is less than 2mA, indicating an issue with the encoder or its wiring. This monitoring is only possible if C0034 = 1, and its failure means loss of accurate position feedback.

Sd6

Motor temperature sensor error

The encoder for detecting the motor temperature at X7 or X8 is indicating undefined values. This prevents proper motor thermal protection and could lead to motor damage due to overheating.

Sd7

Absolute value encoder initialisation error at X8

The absolute value encoder at X8 has an initialisation error, is defective, or is not sending data. This may also occur if the encoder constant (C0420) for C0025=309 is altered. An uninitialised encoder can lead to uncontrolled drive movements.

Sd8

SinCos encoder error at X8

The SinCos encoder at X8 is sending inconsistent data, indicating damaged tracks, high interference levels on the cable, or an open circuit. It could also be due to an incorrect encoder type or improperly set supply voltage.

x053

The motor temperature has exceeded the threshold defined in parameter C0121 (displayed as OH7). This condition is monitored by the MCTRL function and related to parameter C0584, indicating a configurable motor thermal protection limit has been reached. Operation above this threshold risks motor damage.

x058

Motor Overtemperature (T1/T2 Input)

The motor temperature, as measured across inputs T1 and T2 from a PTC resistor or thermal contact, is too high (display OH8 on keypad). This condition is monitored by the MCTRL function and its response can be set via parameter C0585. Operating with this fault not eliminated can destroy the drive if C0585 is set to 'Warning' (2) or 'Off' (3). An 'open' cable on T1, T2 can act as an antenna and cause faults. Only one PTC resistor should be connected; multiple in series or parallel will result in incorrect temperature measurement.

x061
