Negative travel range limit switch activated

What does F6044 mean?

The hardware limit switch for the negative travel range has been activated, indicating that the axis has reached or exceeded its negative mechanical limit. This stops further movement in the negative direction to prevent damage.

• Mechanical overrun of the axis beyond the negative limit switch.
• Limit switch stuck in the activated position.
• Incorrect wiring of the limit switch or faulty input.
• Control program error commanding movement into the negative limit.

   Check the negative limit switch for physical damage or if it is stuck in the activated position.

3. 3

   Inspect the wiring of the negative limit switch to the IndraDrive input for loose connections or damage.

   Review the drive's input status for the negative limit switch to confirm its signal is accurate.

5. 5

   Adjust the motion profile or software travel limits to prevent activation of the hardware limit switch during normal operation.
