(4) Alarm occurs during acceleration or deceleration:
Cause 1: Excessive load inertia and the accelerating or decelerating time is too short.
Remedy 1: Reduce the load inertia.
Remedy 2: Set longer times for [tune mode][7: acceleration time constant] and [8:
deceleration time constant].
Cause 2: Gain is set too high or too low
Remedy 1: Adjust gains [parameter mode][0: speed loop gain], [1: speed loop integral
compensation] and [2: position loop gain].
Abnormal regeneration (release: imp.)
Description
This alarm occurs when the thermal switch of the regeneration resistor in the HA-655 driver is activated
at 100. To release the alarm after troubleshooting, shut off the control power and turn it on again.
Diagnostic tips
(1) Alarm occurs during deceleration
Cause 1: The capacity of the regeneration resistor is too small.
Remedy: Install an external resistor to make the capacity larger.
Cause 2: The regeneration circuit of the HA-655 driver may have failed.
Remedy: Contact Harmonic Drive Systems. (Replace the HA-655 driver)
Encoder failure (release: impossible)
Description
This alarm occurs when the encoder signal ceases. To release the alarm after troubleshooting, shut off
the control power and turn it on again.
Diagnostic tips
(1) Alarm occurs when the control power is turned on:
Cause 1: The control circuit of the HA-655 driver may have failed.
Remedy: Contact Harmonic Drive Systems.
(Replace the HA-655 driver)
Cause 2: The encoder connector (CN1) may not be connected or may be improperly wired.
Remedy: Verify connection of encoder connector (CN1) and connect it firmly.
Cause 3: The encoder circuit may have failed.
Remedy: Contact Harmonic Drive Systems.(Replace actuator)
(2) Alarm occurs during running (recovers after cooling of the actuator)
Cause 1: Encoder malfunctions when the actuator temperature rises.
Remedy: Review the actuator operating load, duty cycle, and its cooling system.
