Viewing Warning/Fault Information - ABB ACS580 Firmware Manual



Viewing warning/fault information

The drive is able to store a list of the active faults actually causing the drive to trip at
the present time. The drive also stores a list of faults and warnings that have
previously occurred.
For active faults and warnings, see
• Menu - Diagnostics - Active faults
• Menu - Diagnostics - Active warnings
• Options - Active faults
• Options - Active warnings
• parameters in group
For previously occurred faults and warnings, see
• Menu - Diagnostics - Fault & event log
• parameters in group
The event log can also be accessed (and reset) using the Drive composer PC tool.
See Drive composer PC tool user's manual (3AUA0000094606 [English]).
QR code generation for mobile service application
A QR code (or a series of QR codes) can be generated by the drive for display on the
control panel. The QR code contains drive identification data, information on the
latest events, and values of status and counter parameters. The code can be read
with a mobile device containing the ABB service application, which then sends the
data to ABB for analysis. For more information on the application, contact your local
ABB service representative.
To generate the QR code, select Menu - System info - QR code.
Note: If a control panel which does not support QR code generation (version older
than v.6.4x) is used, the QR code menu entry will disappear totally and will not be
available any longer either with control panels supporting the QR code generation.
Note: There is a risk of removing the QR code menu permanently if a backup from a
drive with an old firmware or old panel firmware is restored to a drive with a new
firmware from October 2014 or later.
