Remedies for alarms
CAUTION
y
When any alarm has occurred, eliminate its cause, ensure safety, then reset the
alarm, and restart operation. Otherwise, injury may occur.
POINT
y
When any of the following alarms has occurred, always remove its cause and
allow about 15 minutes for cooling before resuming operation. If operation is
resumed by switching control circuit power off, then on to reset the alarm,
the servo amplifier and servo motor may become faulty.
x
Overload 1 (A. 50)
x
Overload 2 (A. 51)
y
The alarm can be deactivated by switching power off, then on or by turning
on the reset signal (RES). For details, refer to Section 9.2.1.
When an alarm occurs, the trouble signal (ALM) switches off and the dynamic brake is operated to stop the
servomotor. At this time, the display indicates the alarm No.
The servo motor comes to a stop. Remove the cause of the alarm in accordance with this section. The
optional Servo Configuration Software may be used to refer to the cause.

Cause
Action
1. Power supply voltage is low.
2. Power failed instantaneously for
15ms or longer.
3. Shortage of power supply capacity
caused the power supply voltage to
drop at start, etc.
4. Power switched on within 5s after
it had switched off.
Review the power supply.
