Siemens 310710 - Axis drive distance-coded scale incorrectly parameterized

Axis drive distance-coded scale incorrectly parameterized

If a distance-coded scale is selected (MD 5011 bit 7=1) a length measuring system must also be configured (MD 5011 bit 4=1) Control reaction: Mode group not ready. Channel not ready. NC Start disable in this channel. Interface signals are set. Alarm display. NC Stop on alarm.

Safety

  • Drive/power/encoder circuit: hazardous voltages may remain in the DC link after power-off. Lock out / tag out, wait for discharge per the drive documentation, and use qualified personnel only.

Common Causes

  • If a distance-coded scale is selected (MD 5011 bit 7=1) a length measuring system must also be configured (MD 5011 bit 4=1)

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Check and, if necessary, correct MD 5011: ACTUAL_VALUE_CONFIG (actual value sensing configuration).
  2. 2Switch control OFF - ON
