Loss of optional encoder reference

What does F2175 mean?

The drive has lost the reference signal from an optional encoder. This optional encoder provides additional feedback, perhaps for a secondary axis, master axis, or external position measurement. Loss of this reference will compromise the accuracy and synchronization of the system relying on this feedback, potentially leading to operational faults.

• Damaged optional encoder cable or connector
• Defective optional encoder hardware
• Severe electrical noise interfering with optional encoder signals
• Loose optional encoder mounting
• Incorrect parameter configuration for the optional encoder

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Inspect the optional encoder cable for physical damage, proper shielding, and verify secure connections at both the encoder and the IndraDrive MPx02 input module.

2. 2

   Measure the supply voltage at the optional encoder power input terminals to confirm it is within the encoder's specified operating range.

3. 3

   Verify the drive parameters configured for the optional encoder (e.g., encoder type, resolution, input assignment) match the actual installed encoder and system requirements.

4. 4

   Check the continuity of each signal wire within the optional encoder cable from the encoder connector to the corresponding IndraDrive input terminal using a multimeter to detect any breaks.
