9.6 Error messages
Errors which occur are shown in coded form by an error number in the LED display on the front
panel. All error messages result in theBTB/RTO contact being opened, and the output stage of the
amplifier being switched off (motor loses all torque). If a motor-holding brake is installed, it will be
activated.

*= These error messages can be cancelled by the ASCII command CLRFAULT,without executing a reset. If
onlythese errors are present, and the RESET button or the I/O-function RESET is used, the CLRFAULT com -
mandis also all that is carried out.

More information to the messages can be found in the ASCII Object Reference

(Online Help), see parameter ERRCODE. Hints for removal can be found in section

"Trouble-Shooting" of the online help.
