Feedback cable is too long

Adhere to the max. permissible cable length (see instructions manual) 

Adhere to the max. permissible cable length (see instructions manual) 

Coupling fault signals 

Check shielding, ensure compliance with the minimum spacing between the power cables and the signal connections (see instructions manual)

Signal level
over-/undershot
See page Supervision of Sine Cosine Encoders. The monitoring can be switched off with CPHASE 2 . See page Supervision of Sine Cosine Encoders.
Linear measuring system used Shielding of the feedback cable. see page Sporadic error message F04 with linear measuring systems Shielding of the feedback cable. see page Sporadic error message F04 with linear measuring systems
supply current too low
(Renishaw measuring system)

Resistor might be required (supply line)
(1000 Ohms between X1.2 and X1.4)

 
Faulty data in the encoder

This error occurs with new encoders, that have never been initialized
Solution: Initialize the data with the command HSAVE (terminal screen).

Extended error message S300 / S700 
a second error message with a small "i" (ERRCODE2) is displayed in the display, which has the following meaning:

i 16 Error while reading the BISS position in regsiter mode.
i 18 BISS communication fault
i 22 Reading the encoder data via slow data access was not possible (communication problem with the Encoder)
i 23 Reading the encoder data via fast data access was not possible (communication problem with the Encoder)
i 28 The plugged in option card does not match with the software version of the drive.
i 53 min. resolver amplitude (threshold) undershot
i 54 max. amplitude jump of the resolver signals
i 55 phase deviation between sine/cosine of the resolver
