Problem:

Downstacker motor doesn’t move correctly to the reference position, stops or suddenly changes the direction of rotation. Display of servo controller U16 shows „IMax“ or „P03 trip“.

Possible Causes & Resolutions:

To check:

• Mechanical condition of downstacker motor: Turn it by hand and check that everything runs smoothly.
• Resolver mounting: Is firmly connected to the motor shaft?
• Resolver bearings: Remove the resolver from the motor shaft and check if it is turning smoothly.
• Resolver and motor connections: Motor and resolver are connected correctly and clamps/plugs tightened?
• Motor windings: Disconnect the motor from the inverter and check the windings with an ohm meter (U-V,U-W,V-W). All values are equal?
• Output servo controller: Measure the inverter output voltage when it should run (U-V,U-W,V-W). If 0V and display shows „IMax“ maybe servo controller defective.

Problem:

• Speed of the drives changes during production

Possible causes & resolutions:

• Wrong position of the switch for the terminating resistor on the bus plug.
  Check all switches on the complete bus system. Follow the cable thoroughly from first DP bus device (PLC) to last DP bus device. The terminating resistor switch of first and last must be set to „ON”, all other to „OFF“.
• Bus connector/plug defect
• Check wiring of all profibus cables, especially the connection of the cable shield inside the plug.
• Problem of terminating resistor supply by last device on bus. Try to change the profibus wiring to use on another device as last client.
