Open circuit message
If an open circuit error is detected, the "Fault" LED lights up on the device, the outputs are 
switched off and an error message appears on the display.
The error message is continually updated. It will be displayed until the error is rectified.
The outputs will not switch back on until all the start-up conditions are met.
Error message Description Remedy
Error
Signal:
A/A B/B Z/Z
No feasible signal at 
one or more tracks
- Ensure that there is no open circuit 
in the wiring of tracks A... /Z
- Ensure that the correct encoder is 
configured and connected
- Ensure that the encoder operates 
correctly.
Frequency difference message on proximity switch
If a frequency difference error is detected, the "Fault" LED lights up on the device and a 
warning message appears on the display: "AB frequency deviation".
The warning message disappears automatically once valid signals are again present for 
both proximity switches. The Fault LED also goes out.
If the warning message appears, it will no longer be possible to carry out configured fre-
quency range monitoring. The output or outputs will react as if the configured range has 
been violated.
If the frequency difference is present for an extended period, without a valid signal, greater 
than the global standstill frequency, from the two proximity switches, error message 6000 
will appear (see "Current error messages"), all outputs will switch off and the Fault LED will 
light up.
The error message disappears automatically if
}  Valid signals, greater than the global standstill frequency, are detected from both prox-
imity switches
 or
}  A falling edge is detected at start input S34
The outputs will not switch back on until all the start-up conditions are met.
Warning message Description Remedy
AB frequency
deviation
Frequency of the prox-
imity switch at track A 
differs from the frequen-
cy of the proximity 
switch at track B for too 
long and by too much.
- Ensure that the proximity switches 
operate correctly
- Check whether a proximity switch 
constantly switches due to the 
drive's edge jitter.
