FANUC SERVO AMPLIFER ALARMS

FANUC SERVO AMPLIFER ALARMS

Axxa can provide you with more information on the meaning of your alarms and will help you diagnose the source of the problem by explaining the meaning of common FANUC alarm codes. Our technicians

Routinely Service the following Fanuc Servo Amplifiers:

FANUC Alpha, Alpha i series & Alpha is series

FANUC AC Digital and Analog

FANUC AC Serial Interface

FANUC AC Series i & S

We provide a fault diagnosis and a one-year warranty on all FANUC servo repairs and all Fanuc Servo purchases; new, refurbished or used.

In this blog we will mention the Fanuc Servo Amplifier Alarm Codes and their description.

 

Alarm Code Description

- (dash)

Amplifier is not ready

Blinking "-"

(a) Disconnect the feedback cable (JF*) from the Servo Amplifier, and then switch on the power.

<1> If blinking continues → Replace the Servo Amplifier.

<2> If blinking stops → Go to (b). (b) Disconnect the feedback cable (JF*) from the Pulsecoder, and then switch on the power. (Keep the cable on the Servo Amplifier side connected.)

<1> If blinking continues → Replace the cable.

<2> If blinking stops → Replace the motor.
