DriveWorksEZ Fault 2

Yaskawa · GA500 Maintenance and Troubleshooting

What does dWF2 mean?

This fault indicates an issue originating from the DriveWorksEZ program itself, not a drive hardware fault. It signifies a problem with the user-defined logic or configuration which prevents proper program execution on the drive.

Common Causes

  • Syntax error or logical inconsistency within the user-programmed DriveWorksEZ sequence.
  • Incorrect data type or range assignment for a variable in the DriveWorksEZ program.
  • DriveWorksEZ program attempting to access an invalid memory address or non-existent parameter.
  • Infinite loop or resource contention within the custom DriveWorksEZ logic causing system hang.

  2. 2

    2. Review the DriveWorksEZ program code for logical errors, infinite loops, or incorrect variable usage.

  3. 3

    3. Debug the DriveWorksEZ program using simulation mode, observing variable states and program flow.

  4. 4

    4. Verify all parameter references (e.g., P1-01, H1-01) within the DriveWorksEZ logic are valid for the drive model.

  5. 5

    5. Download a previously working version of the DriveWorksEZ program, if available, to isolate the issue to recent changes.
