Fault Variables
Fault variables let you use fault conditions as elements in an expression.
Fault variables include numerical representations of global faults, axis
faults, and fault codes, as well as logical variables for individual faults.
The following table describes upper level—or general—fault variables.
Later sections describe both the fault code values and the lower tier fault
variables associated with the following general fault variables.
Variable Units
Global_fault Integer from 0 to 16
Runtime_fault Integer from 0 to 35
Axis_fault Integer from 0 to 7
Axis_bus_loss_fault_1394 0 (False) or 1 (True)
Axis_drive_over_temp_fault_1394 0 (False) or 1 (True)
Axis_it_fault_1394 0 (False) or 1 (True)
Axis_module_hard_fault_1394 0 (False) or 1 (True)
Axis_Motor_over_temp_fault_1394 0 (False) or 1 (True)
