Alarm Message

Meaning

Possible Cause

Action

 

 

 

 

 

01

OVER LOAD

Excessive load

q Improper operation

q Lower the operation duty on the robot

 

 

on motor

 

or reduce the acceleration parameter,

 

 

 

 

or correct the payload parameter.

 

 

 

w Motor failure

w If the motor armature resistance is too

 

 

 

 

low, contact our sales office or

 

 

 

 

representative.

 

 

 

e Parameter error

e Initialize the parameters and check the

 

 

 

 

robot type setting.

 

 

 

r Wrong power supply voltage

r Check the power supply voltage.

 

 

 

t Insufficient power supply capacity

t Check the power supply capacity. If

 

 

 

 

too low, use a power supply of larger

 

 

 

 

capacity.

 

 

 

y Excessive friction in robot

y Check whether the robot moving parts

 

 

 

 

work sluggishly. Refer to the robot

 

 

 

 

user's manual for corrective action.

 

 

 

 

 

02

OVER

Motor drawing

q Motor wire shorted

q Check the motor wires for electrical

 

CURRENT

too much current

 

continuity, and replace the motor

 

 

 

 

assembly if abnormality is found.

 

 

 

w Motor failure

w Replace the motor if internally

 

 

 

 

shorted.

 

 

 

e Controller failure

e If the motor terminals U and W , V

 

 

 

 

and W or U and V are shorted, the

 

 

 

 

output transistor is defective, so

 

 

 

 

replace the SRCP controller.

 

 

 

r Parameter error

r Initialize the parameters and check the

 

 

 

 

robot type setting.

 

 

 

 

 

03

OVER HEAT

Transistor has

q Rise in ambient temperature

q Correct the ambient environmental

 

 

heated to 90°C or

(above 40°C)

conditions.

 

 

more.

 

(Install a cooling fan.)

 

 

 

w Excessive load on motor

w Lower the operation duty on the

 

 

 

 

robot.

 

 

 

e Defective transistor

e If the controller is being used

 

 

 

 

correctly, the transistor is probably

 

 

 

 

defective, so replace the SRCP

 

 

 

 

controller.

 

 

 

 

 

04

POWER

Power supply

q Insufficient power supply capacity

q Check the power supply capacity. If

 

DOWN

voltage has

 

insufficient, use a power supply having

 

 

dropped to less

 

larger capacity. (Power is consumed

 

 

than 85% of rated

 

mostly during return-to-origin of

 

 

value.

 

stroke end detection, robot start-up and

 

 

 

 

acceleration/deceleration.)

 

 

 

w Wrong power supply voltage

w Check the voltage specifications

 

 

 

being used

indicated on the front panel of the

 

 

 

 

controller.

05

BATT.LOW-

System backup

q Battery worn out.

qw Replace the battery. (If not

 

VOLTAGE

battery voltage is
