TASX – Transfer Extended Axis Status
The TASX command returns the axis status conditions. It reports more informa-
tion than the TAS command, and is helpful for identifying which faults occurred.
It returns a 32 bit response (1 = Yes; Ø = No). Note the positions of bits that are
"1" rather than "0"—they indicate problem areas, some of which are:
Bit #: Fault:
1
Motor temperature fault
2
Low voltage fault
3
Drive temperature fault
7
Configuration error
10
Bridge fault
17
Stall detected
18
Excessive velocity command Commanded velocity exceeds DMVLIM limit.
20
Power Dissipation active
22
Unrecognized hardware
23
User fault
24
Keep Alive active
25
Power dissipation fault
28
Configuration warning
29
Encoder output failure
(NOTE: Bridge fault can also indicate output bridge overheating. To test, check drive heatsink
temperature; allow drive to cool, then reset drive. If fault remains, it is due to a short circuit—
check motor and motor wiring. If fault reoccurs after several minutes, it may be due to
restricted airflow over the drive's heatsink.)
See the Gemini Programmer's Reference for the complete list of status conditions.
TCS – Transfer Configuration Status
If the TASX command indicates a configuration error or warning, use the TCS
command to help ascertain the cause of the condition.
NOTE: TCS reports only one error code; errors will overwrite warnings. There-
fore, if there is more than one error condition present:
1.
Resolve the known error.
2.
Cycle power to the drive, issue a RESET command, or activate the RESET input.
3.
If another error condition presents itself (e.g., the drive will not enable), check for
subsequent errors with the TCS command.
See the Gemini Programmer's Reference for the complete list of faults and
warnings.
Solution:
Thermal switch in motor is open; motor is hot
Check acceleration; AC power wiring and input level
Check ventilation; ambient temperature
Drive cannot operate as configured. See TCS com-
mand, below.
Check motor wiring for short circuit. (See note below.)
Stall was detected, regardless of ESK setting.
(Warning only: does not light LED or stop motion.)
Internal regeneration circuit was active. Check
deceleration.
(Warning only: does not light LED or stop motion.)
Consult factory.
Indicates input #3 was active.
Not a fault; indicates +24VDC power at keep alive
input.
Indicates excessive regeneration. Check deceleration,
load inertia.
Drive altered a user entered value. See TCS command.
(Warning only: does not light LED or stop motion.)
ORES is set too high for maximum velocity commanded
