System error

SEW Eurodrive · MOVIDRIVE system

What does F13.15 mean?

The encoder evaluation system is signaling a critical system error for Encoder 1, possibly due to a multi-turn encoder being outside its configured track area, incorrect limits, or faulty numerator/denominator factors. This indicates a severe issue with position calculation or encoder setup, risking incorrect positioning and drive instability.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Verify that the multi-turn encoder is within its configured track area and check set limits.

  2. 2

    Review and correct the encoder numerator/denominator factors in the drive parameters.

  3. 3

    Identify and mitigate any electromagnetic interference (EMC) sources.

  4. 4

    Power cycle the device and re-check startup parameters.

  5. 5
