Parameter Not Found

ABB · ACS880

What does 13 mean?

The system attempted to access or modify a parameter using an invalid group or index. This means the specified parameter does not exist in the drive's parameter database, likely due to a typo or incorrect reference in the application code. This will prevent any operation on the intended parameter.

Common Causes

  • A PLC program or HMI is attempting to access a parameter using an invalid group or index number (e.g., trying to read P99-01 when the highest group is P10).
  • A typographical error in the parameter number specified in the application code or configuration software (e.g., P1-120 instead of P1-020).
  • The drive controller model or firmware version does not support the parameter being referenced, leading to its non-existence in the drive's parameter database.
  • Memory address or communication tag mapping is incorrect, pointing to a non-existent parameter register.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    1. Verify the exact parameter number (group and index) by cross-referencing with the drive controller's official parameter manual for the specific model and firmware version.

  2. 2

    2. Correct any typographical errors in the PLC program, HMI tag database, or configuration files that reference the parameter.

  3. 3

    3. Confirm that the drive controller's model number and firmware version are compatible with the parameters expected by the application.

  4. 4

    4. If using a communication protocol, ensure the memory address or register number used to access the parameter is correct according to the drive's communication mapping documentation.
