9. Diagnostics and fault clearance
Lengthy fault locating on several different units and repairing the units on
the machine should be avoided due to the associated loss of production
time.
The diagnostics display and the message signals on the DDS 2.1 drive
controller enable methodical and effective fault location.
Simple replacement of defective drive components guarantees the
fastest possible clearance of the fault and resumption of operation
without any lengthy assembly and readjustment work.
The software module DSM 2.1 allows you to replace the drive controller
without needing to reset the drive. The new drive controller is immedi-
ately ready for action when the existing software module has been
plugged in.
When replacing components, please remember the following points:
– The new unit, motor or cable must have exactly the same type
designation as the part you removed. The configuration rating plate on
the transparent protective plate of the defective drive controller carries
all the information necessary to order a replacement unit from
INDRAMAT or to build a replacement unit from existing single parts.
– If a drive controller does develop a fault, remove the software module
DSM (which is usually intact) from the defective module and plug it into
the newly installed drive module.
– When returning a defective unit to INDRAMAT Service Department,
please send the completed "Repair Card", as illustrated in Fig. 88,
Section 11.1, along with it. If no repair card is to hand, make a
photocopy of the specimen in the appendix to this documentation and
enter the relevant data for the defective component. In any event, you
should always include a short report of the type of errors or faults which
have occurred while the unit was in operation. This will ensure that
repairs are carried out promptly and correctly. Extra copies of the
Repair Card may be obtained from INDRAMAT.
