SRVO-230

Safety Chain 1 Abnormal

Fanuc · R-30iB Mate + Mate Plus Robot

What does SRVO-230 mean?

A mismatch has occurred between duplicate safety signals. Specifically, a contact on the chain 1 side (e.g., between EES1 and EES11, or EAS1 and EAS11) is closed, while the corresponding contact on the chain 2 side (e.g., between EES2 and EES21, or EAS2 and EAS21) is open. This condition indicates a potential failure or discrepancy in one of the redundant safety circuits, compromising safety integrity.

Common Causes

  • Safety Chain 1 has detected an abnormal condition, interrupting normal operation.
  • This indicates a fault in the wiring, components, or configuration of the first safety interlock circuit (e.g., emergency stop buttons, safety gate switches).
  • The system has disabled motion to ensure operator safety due to a breach in safety chain integrity.
  • Requires systematic checking of all components and wiring associated with Safety Chain 1.
