BR2-Trip (Brake error, external axes)

What does 142 mean?

This fault indicates an error in the brake system for the external axes (KPS-600). Similar to main axes, this could be caused by a faulty brake component, incorrect control signals, or power issues, affecting the ability to hold external loads safely and reliably.

• BR2-Trip: Brake error detected on external axes (P1-23).
• Mechanical brake failure on an auxiliary or external axes.
• Wiring fault or defective component in the external axis brake circuit.
• Communication issue with the external axis brake controller.

1. 1

   Verify the brake control signal voltage at the external brake terminals during activation and deactivation cycles.

2. 2

   Measure the resistance of the brake coil for the external axes and compare it to specifications.

3. 3

   Inspect the brake wiring and connectors for continuity and secure connection.

4. 4

   Check for mechanical obstruction preventing brake release or engagement.
