What it means
A01482 is raised by the drive's topology comparison: a Sensor Module that exists in the target topology — the project in the commissioning software — is not present at the expected connection in the actual topology. The alarm text names the missing component and the connection it belongs to. The drive itself takes no automatic action; correcting either the hardware or the project is up to you. The same topology comparison covers other component classes as well (power unit, Terminal Module, DRIVE-CLiQ Hub Module, Controller Extension, DRIVE-CLiQ component, option slot component, motor with DRIVE-CLiQ), each with its own alarm number.
Why it appears
- The topology comparison has detected a Sensor Module that is missing in the actual topology with respect to the target topology — a component configured in the project has not been inserted at the connection where it is expected.
What to check
- Correct the actual topology: insert the components involved at the right connection.
- Alternatively, correct the target topology: adapt the project/parameterization in the commissioning software so that it matches the hardware actually connected.
- Check the 24 V supply voltage.
- Check the DRIVE-CLiQ cables for interruption and contact problems.
- Check that the component is working properly.
- For improved diagnostics, open

in the commissioning software; where relevant it offers, for example, a setpoint/actual value comparison.
Reading the message value
The drive stores the alarm value of this message in r2124 and interprets it hexadecimal as ddccbbaa. The alarm text reads Component: %1, to %2, %3, connection: %4
; the bytes of the alarm value correspond to these placeholders:
- aa — component number of the component that has not been inserted (%1)
- bb — component class (%2)
- cc — component number (%3)
- dd — connection number (%4)
The component that has not been inserted is described by the combination of dd, cc and bb. The component classes and connection numbers are described in the manual under F01375.
Parameters the manual names
- r2124 (alarm value) — read the hexadecimal ddccbbaa pattern here to identify the connection number, component class and component number belonging to the missing Sensor Module.
Acknowledging and restarting
This alarm does not have to be acknowledged. It is withdrawn automatically once the discrepancy between the actual and the target topology has been removed — either by inserting the Sensor Module again at the correct connection or by adapting the project/parameterization in the commissioning software to the hardware actually connected.
The same on every family
Every manual that describes A01482 gives it the same reaction, acknowledgement and message class.

| S120, S150 | NONE | NONE | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2610 |

Questions technicians ask
What does SINAMICS alarm A01482 mean?
The topology comparison has found a Sensor Module that is missing in the actual topology with respect to the target topology. In other words, a Sensor Module configured in the project is not inserted at the connection where it is expected.
How do I clear A01482?
Insert the components involved at the correct connection, or adapt the project/parameterization in the commissioning software so the target topology matches the actual hardware. If the topology is supposed to be right, check the 24 V supply voltage, the DRIVE-CLiQ cables and the component itself.
Does A01482 have to be acknowledged?
No, the alarm requires no acknowledgement. It clears automatically as soon as the actual and target topology match again.
How do I find out which Sensor Module is missing?
The alarm text names the component and the connection. The alarm value in r2124, read hexadecimal as ddccbbaa, gives the component number of the missing component (aa), the component class (bb), the component number (cc) and the connection number (dd); the component classes and connection numbers are described under F01375.
