4013
Encoder identifier not allowed
Beckhoff · TwinCAT 2 NC
What does 4013 mean?
An unacceptable value (outside the range of 1 to 255) has been used for an encoder identifier, or the specified encoder does not exist within the current system configuration. This parameter error prevents proper identification and reading of position feedback from the specified encoder, leading to uncontrolled motion or axis failures.
Complete Troubleshooting Guide
- 1
Verify the encoder ID parameter in the NC configuration. Ensure it is a unique value between 1 and 255.
- 2
Confirm that the encoder with the specified ID actually exists and is properly configured in the system.
- 3
Correct any misspellings or incorrect numerical entries for the encoder identifier.
- 4
Restart the NC system after making configuration changes.
