Last post by zigmund - April 23, 2024, 03:57:AM
Here is a list of Fanuc alarms for the A06B-6047-*. DC Servo stuff for your DC problems. The DC axis faults are nagging problems sometimes, hopefully this helps with A06B troubleshooting.
 
(Some applicable part numbers: A06B-6047-H003, A06B-6047-H203, A06B-6047-H041, A06B-6047- H201, A06B-6047- H208, A06B-6047-H001, A06B-6047- H005, A06B-6047- H004, A06B-6047- H040)


  • What is NC Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Overload The Overload alarm occurs if the motor current exceeds the current required to actuate the thermal relay. Or if the power transformer thermostat or the regenerative discharge unit thermostat operates

  • What is TGLS Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Tacho Generator   The Motor speed exceeds the specified upper limit due to a break in in the velocity feedback wire, the TGLS indicator goes on. The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

  • What is OVC Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Over Current The Motor current exceeds the specified upper limit for more than the fixed period ( about 600 msec), the OVC indicator goes on. The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

  • What is BRK Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Circuit Breaker The Abnormal current exceeding the rating limit of the breaker is applied to the motor, the circuit breaker operates. The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

  • What is HVAL Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Over Voltage The AC input voltage applied to the servo transformer  exceeds the allowable value, the HVAL indicator goes on.  The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

  • What is HCAL Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: Low Voltage The AC power source voltage drops abnormally, the LVAL indicator goes on. The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

  • What is DCA Fault on Fanuc 6047? It means: DC IssueThere is Abnormal current applied to the transistor bridge circuit, the HCAL indicator goes on. The motor is stopped by the dynamic brake.

Series 0 Servo Faults and Alarm Codes

This is a general list of servo alarms (servo faults) that should be applicable to the following Fanuc series servos: Fanuc 0M-C, Fanuc 0M-F, Fanuc 00M-C, Fanuc 0M-D, Fanuc 0M-F, Fanuc 0M-C, Fanuc 0T-C, Fanuc 0T-F, Fanuc 0T-C, Fanuc 0TT-C, Fanuc 0T-D,  Fanuc 0TT-C, Fanuc 0C, 0-T and 0-M.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n1 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: n-AXIS-EXCESS ERROR : The position deviation value when the n-th axis stops is larger than the set value.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n3 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: n-th AXIS -LSI OVERFLOW : The contents of the error register for the n-th axis exceeded power.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n4 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: n-TH AXIS DETECTION RELATED ERROR : N-th axis digital servo system fault.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n5 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO AALRM: n-TH AXIS- EXCESS SHIFT : A speed higher than 4000000 units/s was attempted to be set in the n-th axis.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n6 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: n-TH AXIS -DISCONNECTION : Position detection system fault in the n-th axis pulse coder ( dis-connection alarm).

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 4n7 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: n-TH AXIS-PARAMETER INCORRECT : This alarm occurs when the n-th axis is in one of the conditions: 1. The value set in Parameter no 8n20 (motor form) is out of the specified limit.
    2.  A proper value ( 111 or -111) is not set in parameter no 8n22.( motor revolution direction).
    3. Illegal data ( a value below 0, etc) was set in parameter No 8n23 ( number of speed feedback pulses per motor revolution) 4. Illegal data ( a value below 0, etc) was set in parameter No 8n24 ( number of speed feedback pulses per motor revolution) Parameters No. 8n84 and No. 8n85 (flexible field gear rate) have not been set.
    4. An axis selection parameter ( from No.269 to 274 is incorrect.
    5. An overflow occurred during parameter computation.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 490 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: 5TH AXIS OVERLOAD : 5-axis, 6-axis overload signal is on.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 491 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: 5, 6TH AXIS VRDY ON : 5-axis, 6-axis servo amplifier READY signal (DRDY) went off.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 494 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: 5, 6TH AXIS VRDY ON : The axis card ready signal ( MCON) for axes 5 and 6 is off, but the servo amplifier ready signal (DRDY) is not. Alternatively when the power is applied, the DRDY is on and the MCON is not.

  • Q: What is a Fanuc 495 Alarm code on a 0-T or 0-M? A: SERVO ALARM: 5, 6TH AXIS ZERO POINT RETURN : This is a position control circuit error.
