ID 70389

Axis reference due to bus failure removed. Position monitoring functions (e.g. software limit switch) not active.

Description

The number of permissible telegram failures on the EtherCAT-Fieldbus (see P-AXIS-00406) was exceeded. Axis without an absolute measuring system (see P-AXIS-00014) will be marked as not referenced, since position information may be lost due to the bus failure. The monitoring functions, e.g. software limit switch or gantry monitors, are deactivated for this axis. The axis must be re-homed for the monitoring functions to become effective (see [FCT-M1]).

Response

Class

7

Closed-loop controlled axis stop

Solution

Class

6

Possible solutions:

  • Re-homing axis e.g. with NC command G74
  • Check the fieldbus
  • Increase the permissible telegram failures (see P-AXIS-00406)
