Safe reference lost
Indramat · DIAX 04
What does F510 mean?
The DIAX04 SSE-03VRS drive has lost its safe absolute position reference. This means the safety-related position tracking is no longer reliable, typically due to an encoder issue, battery failure, or memory corruption. The drive faults to prevent uncontrolled movements based on an unknown or incorrect safe position.
Common Causes
- Loss of power to a battery-backed absolute encoder, or the encoder battery is depleted (F248).
- Faulty absolute encoder or its wiring providing intermittent or incorrect position feedback to the safety module.
- Internal memory corruption in the DIAX04 SSE-03VRS drive where the safe reference is stored.
- Severe mechanical shock or vibration causing the encoder to lose its reference point.
- Incorrect configuration of the absolute encoder or safe positioning parameters (e.g., S-0-0046, S-0-0047).
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Check the battery status of the absolute encoder (if applicable) and replace if necessary.
- 2
Verify the absolute encoder wiring and connections for damage, looseness, or signal integrity issues.
- 3
Perform a new safe homing or referencing procedure for the axis to re-establish the safe absolute position.
- 4
Review the absolute encoder configuration and safe positioning parameters (e.g., S-0-0046, S-0-0047) in the DIAX04 SSE-03VRS drive.
- 5
If the fault persists, monitor the encoder feedback signals and consider a faulty absolute encoder or issues with the DIAX04 SSE-03VRS drive's encoder input.
