What it means
The drive raises A02097 when a multiple trace on trace recorder 1 is to be activated while a function or a setting is present that cannot be combined with a multiple trace. As long as one of these conflicting settings is in place, the drive does not start the multiple trace.
Why it appears
- The measuring function is to run alongside the multiple trace.
- The long-time trace is to run alongside the multiple trace.
- The trigger condition "immediate recording start" (IMMEDIATE) is set.
- The trigger condition "start with function generator" (FG_START) is set.
What to check
- Check which of the settings named above — measuring function, long-time trace, IMMEDIATE trigger condition or FG_START trigger condition — is set alongside the multiple trace on trace recorder 1.
- If the multiple trace is no longer required, deactivate it by setting p4840[1] = 0.
- Otherwise, deactivate the function or setting that is not permissible, so that the multiple trace can be activated.
Parameters the manual names
- p4840 — MTrace cycle number setting: setting p4840[1] = 0 deactivates the multiple trace, which is the alternative to removing the conflicting function or setting.
Acknowledging and restarting
Once the impermissible function or setting has been deactivated — or the multiple trace has been switched off with p4840[1] = 0 — the condition stated in the cause is removed and the multiple trace can be activated again.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — A02097 is not described identically everywhere.
| Drive family | Reaction | Acknowledge | Message class | Component | Manual |

| S120, S150 | NONE | NONE | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2734 |

Questions technicians ask
What does alarm A02097 mean?
It appears when trace recorder 1 is to run as a multiple trace while a measuring function, the long-time trace, or the IMMEDIATE or FG_START trigger condition is also set. That combination is not permissible, so the drive cannot activate the multiple trace.
How do I clear alarm A02097?
Deactivate the function or setting that is not permissible, or set p4840[1] = 0 if the multiple trace is no longer required. Once the conflicting setting is gone, the alarm condition is removed.
Which parameter switches the multiple trace off?
p4840, the MTrace cycle number setting. Setting p4840[1] = 0 deactivates the multiple trace on trace recorder 1.
Does A02097 indicate a hardware defect?
It is a consequence of the trace configuration alone: the manual lists only settings — a measuring function, the long-time trace, or the IMMEDIATE or FG_START trigger condition — as causes for this code.
