Par Cl. MMC-PS contents incompatible
Siemens · SINAMICS G120
What does F00063 mean?
The parameter cloning file found on the MMC-PS is from an incompatible drive type. Although the file exists, its parameters cannot be applied to the current drive, preventing proper configuration and startup due to a mismatch in hardware or firmware versions.
Common Causes
- The parameter file on the MMC-PS was saved from a different drive model or family (e.g., a SINAMICS G120 file on a SINAMICS S120 drive).
- Major firmware version mismatch between the drive and the parameter file on the MMC-PS.
- The parameter file is intended for a different power size or specific hardware variant of the same drive type.
- The parameter file contains settings for optional modules (e.g., fieldbus cards, I/O extensions) not present in the target drive.
- Corruption of the parameter file header, leading to an incorrect drive type identification.
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Verify that the drive model and firmware version exactly match the model and firmware version for which the parameter file was originally created.
- 2
Use a parameter file specifically generated for the current drive's model, power rating, and firmware version.
- 3
If parameters need to be transferred between different drive variants, use conversion tools provided by the manufacturer (e.g., STARTER, TIA Portal) to adapt the file.
- 4
Perform a factory reset on the drive, then manually input parameters or clone from a known compatible source.
- 5
Ensure the MMC-PS card is functioning correctly and not causing data misreads; try a different card with a known-good, compatible parameter file.
