Chapter 7 Troubleshooting the Kinetix 6000M System
IPIM Module Fault Types
The IPIM has two fault types: resettable and non-resettable.
When an IPIM module fault occurs, the fault is reported to the IAM module.
The IAM module reports an IPIM fault to the Logix controller.
Resettable faults - when the IPIM module fault is cleared from the IAM module,
the fault is removed from its display (if the condition has been removed).
Non-resettable faults - the control power must be cycled and the fault may be
cleared if the condition that created the fault has been removed.
Table 19 - IPIM Fault Types, Descriptions and Actions
Fault Type Description Potential Cause Possible Solution
IPIM FLT 01 Resettable Backplane Comm Lost backplane communication with IAM
module.
Verify control power to IAM module.
IPIM FLT 02 Resettable IDM Comm Lost communication with IDM unit. Verify control power to IDM units.
IPIM FLT 03 Resettable DC Bus Overload Excessive RMS current usage by IDM units. Reduce the amount of current required by the IDM units or add an additional
IPIM module to the Kinetix 6000 rail.
IPIM FLT 04 Resettable DC+ Fuse Blown Wiring error or DC bus short. Check wiring and IDM units for DC bus integrity. Once the wiring issue or
damaged IDM unit has been removed and replaced, change the DC+ fuse.
IPIM FLT 05 Resettable DC- Fuse Blown Wiring error or DC bus short. Check wiring and IDM units for DC bus integrity. Once the wiring issue or
damaged IDM unit has been removed and replaced, change the DC- fuse.
IPIM FLT 06 Not Resettable Control Power
Overcurrent
Excessive control power usage by the IDM
units.
Check for control power wiring shorts. Reduce number of ID units. Reduce the
number of power cycles.
IPIM FLT 07 Resettable DC Bus
Overcurrent
Excessive instantaneous current usage by
IDM units.
Reduce number of IDM units per IPIM module or modify motion profiles to
reduce current draw.
IPIM FLT 08 Resettable Bus Regulator
Thermal Overload
Thermal model of IPIM shunt indicates
overheating due to excessive current
regeneration.
Modify the IDM unit or Kinetix 6000 motion profiles and/or applications to
reduce the regenerative energy. Add external shunt modules.
IPIM FLT 09 Resettable Overtemp Excessive temperature measured in the
IPIM module.
Verify ambient operating conditions. Replace the IPIM module.
IPIM FLT 10 Resettable Open DC Bus IDM unit hybrid cable disconnected. Check hybrid cable connections at the IPIM module and each IDM unit.
IPIM FLT 11 Not Resettable Runtime Error Unexpected firmware error. Reboot.
– Not Resettable Display is blank
and Module Status
is Solid Red
Corrupted Main Firmware. Replace IPIM module.
Table 20 - IPIM Initialization Fault Types, Descriptions and Actions
Fault Type Description Potential Cause Possible Solution
IPIM INIT FLT 03 Resettable IAM Version IAM module firmware version does not
support IPIM modules.
Update IAM module firmware.
IPIM INIT FLT 05 Not
Resettable
Custom Logic
Watchdog
