42

Lag error

SEW Eurodrive · MOVIDRIVE compact System

What does 42 mean?

The actual position or speed deviates significantly from the commanded value, potentially due to incorrect encoder connection, short acceleration ramps, a small P-component in the positioning controller, incorrect speed controller parameters, or an insufficient lag fault tolerance. This causes an immediate disconnection to prevent further uncontrolled movement.

Additional Steps

Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.

  1. 3

    Increase the P-component value of the positioning controller to improve responsiveness and reduce deviation.

  2. 4

    Reset or re-tune speed controller parameters if they are incorrectly set or not optimized for the load.

  3. 5

    Increase the lag fault tolerance value if minor deviations are acceptable for the application and do not pose a risk.
