Action
Notes
Check
whether en
coder sig
nals are
faulty.
–
Check the wiring, e.g. are one or more phases of the track signals interrupted
or short-circuited?
–
Check that installation complies with EMC recommendations (cable screening
on both sides?).
–
Only with incremental encoders:
With TTL single-ended signals (HALL signals are always TTL single-ended sig
nals): Check whether there might be an excessive voltage drop on the GND
line; in this case = signal reference.
Check whether there might be an excessive voltage drop on the GND line; in
this case = signal reference.
–
Check the level of supply voltage on the encoder. Sufficient? If not, change the
cable diameter (connect unused lines in parallel) or use voltage feedback
(SENSE+ and SENSE-).
Test with
other en
coders.
–
If the error still occurs when the configuration is correct, test with a different
(error-free) encoder (replace the connecting cable as well). If the error still
occurs, there is a fault in the motor controller. Repair by the manufacturer
required.
