8.1 Action to Be Taken upon Occurrence of Problem
Upon occurrence of a problem, take an appropriate action according to the procedure below in
order to ensure quick recovery and prevent recurrence of the problem.
(1) Checking Status (Condition) Display LEDs on Gateway
ALM RDY
MODE
EMG
T.ERR
C.ERR
(2) Checking Driver Status (Condition) Display LEDs on Each Axis

input, Motor driving power OFF
(3) If there is/isn’t an alarm generated in host controller (such as PLC)
(4) Check the voltage of control power supply (24V DC) and drive (motor) power supply
(5) Check the voltage of fieldbus power supply
(6) Check the voltage (24V DC) of the power supply for brake (For the actuator with the
brake).
(7) Alarm Check (Note1)
Check the alarm code on the teaching tool such as PC software.
(8) Check the connectors for disconnection or connection error.
(9) Check the cables for connection error, disconnection or pinching.
Before performing a continuity check, turn off the power (to prevent electric shocks) and
disconnect the cables of measuring instruments (to prevent accidental power connection
due to sneak current path).
(10) Check the I/O signals.
Using the host controller (PLC, etc.) or a teaching tool such as PC software, check the
presence of inconsistency in I/O signal conditions.
(11) Check the noise elimination measures (grounding, installation of surge killer, etc.).
(12) Check the events leading to the occurrence of problem (Note 1) , as well as the operating
condition at the time of occurrence.
(13) Analyze the cause.
