Encoder 2: Absolute encoder EnDat, internal fault/error

What does 232111 mean?

The EnDat encoder's internal fault word has set fault bits, indicating a problem with the encoder's internal operation. This could relate to the lighting system, signal amplitude, position value accuracy, or issues with the encoder's power supply (over/undervoltage, overcurrent). The exact fault is detailed in r0949, where each bit represents a specific cause, ranging from a failed lighting system to encoder power supply issues.

Additional Steps

Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.

1. 3

   Examine the encoder's power supply for overvoltage, undervoltage, or overcurrent conditions if bits 3, 4, or 5 in r0949 are set.

2. 4

   If bit 6 is set, the encoder battery must be changed.

3. 5

   Consider replacing the encoder or encoder cable if multiple internal errors persist.
