Position Control Range Trip

What does E83. mean?

This fault occurs during simple position control if the motor's current position deviates outside the range defined by the 'Position Limit Setting' (P072 and P073). This indicates that the motor has moved beyond its acceptable positional boundaries, usually due to incorrect settings, external forces, or a malfunction in the positioning system, requiring a shutdown for safety.

Additional Steps

   Verify the 'Multi-step Position Command' (P060 to P067) settings and the 'Origin Search Function' for accuracy and proper setup.

2. 4

   Inspect the mechanical system for any binding or obstructions that could prevent the motor from reaching its commanded position.
