F13.17

Permanent high level in data line

SEW Eurodrive · MOVIDRIVE system

What does F13.17 mean?

The data signal from Encoder 1 is persistently at a high level. This typically points to a wiring problem (e.g., short to supply voltage) or a defect within the encoder unit, resulting in lost or incorrect position feedback and impacting precise drive control.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Inspect the encoder wiring for damage, incorrect connections, or shorts to the supply voltage.

  2. 2

    Test the encoder's output; if the wiring is sound, the encoder likely needs replacement.
