3-1-2-1
Max Supply Voltage μC2 Exceeded
Beckhoff · EL1904 Digital Input Terminal
What does 3-1-2-1 mean?
The supply voltage to microcontroller 2 (μC2) within the EL1904 terminal has exceeded its maximum permissible limit. This overvoltage condition can stress internal components and potentially lead to permanent damage to the microcontroller.
Common Causes
- External power supply voltage exceeds the maximum allowable threshold for μC2.
- Power surge or transient event on the supply line.
- Incorrect voltage regulator setting for μC2.
- Component failure within the power conditioning circuitry for μC2.
- Mains voltage fluctuation beyond operational limits (P2-2).
