The suggested actions are described for drives supporting [[Granity]] software. Hoever similar instructions apply to older [[GDtool]] based drives too. | The suggested actions are described for drives supporting [[Granity]] software.

If fault occurs again, check parameterization of drive or try adjusting fault tolerance limits to higher. If no stability can be achieved, pay attention to correctness of motor parameters [[MPC]], [[FBR]], [[FBI]] and [[FBH]]. In many cases counting direction of encoder is opposite of assumed, so inverting [[FBI]] setting may be needed. All of these settings safe to experiment if motor is shaft unmounted. |

Tick Torque setpoint & achieved signals to see the target current and actual current of motor. Both curves should stay together. If Torque achieved lags behind, it is sign of insuffucient supply voltage to overcome motor coil resistance or EMF. One possibility is also activation of [[STO]] that forces drive power stage off. |
