Safety related holding system: brake check missing

What does F3123 mean?

This non-fatal safety error indicates that a required brake check for the safety-related holding system has not been performed or successfully completed on the IndraDrive MPx02. Without a successful brake check, the reliability of the holding brake for safety functions cannot be guaranteed.

• Brake check command was not issued or received by the IndraDrive MPx02.
• Application conditions preventing the execution of the brake check (e.g., axis not at standstill).
• Faulty brake or brake monitoring, causing the check to fail.
• Incorrect configuration of the brake check function parameters (e.g., P-0-0536 for time interval).
• Communication issues between the safety controller and the IndraDrive MPx02 regarding brake check initiation.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Manually initiate a brake check via the HMI or control system to determine if it completes successfully.

2. 2

   Review the machine sequence to ensure that the conditions for a brake check (e.g., axis at standstill, no active motion command) are met at the appropriate time.

3. 3

   Verify all wiring and control signals for the motor holding brake and its feedback devices.

4. 4

   Check brake check parameters in the IndraDrive MPx02, ensuring settings like time intervals and thresholds are correctly configured.

5. 5

   Confirm communication integrity between the safety controller and the IndraDrive MPx02 if the brake check is externally triggered.
