Blink Codes

 

 

If you ever get an axis fault alarm in your software that cannot be resolved by restarting or checking exterior cabling, you may have to check the blink codes coming off your axis drives inside the control box. Your drives will blink the LEDs in a pattern of 5 to 7 blinks (like morse code). Six green blinks show everything is good. If you see any red/amber blinks in the pattern, refer to the blink code chart to determine the cause of the fault.



Blink Code Chart:

 

1 Green, 4 Red = Voltage High

 

1 Green, 5 Red = Over Current

 

1 Green, 6 Red = Open Motor Phase

 

2 Green, 3 Red = Internal Voltage Bad

 

3 Green, 3 Red = Configuration Error

 

2 Green, 4 Red = Voltage Low
