What it means
The drive has detected a syntax error in the ASCII configuration file of its onboard PROFINET interface. Because of that error, the saved configuration file has not been loaded. The G130/G150 and S120/S150 manuals describe this alarm in identical words; it is a commissioning/parameterization error, not a hardware fault.
Why it appears
- The ASCII configuration file for the onboard PROFINET interface contains a syntax error.
- As a consequence of that error, the saved configuration file has not been loaded.
What to check
- Check the interface configuration held in p8920 and the parameters that follow it, and correct the syntax errors.
- Activate the corrected configuration with p8925 = 1.
- Save the parameters for the interface configuration, for example with p8925 = 2.
Alternatively, reinitialize the station using the "Edit Ethernet node" screen form, for example with the STARTER commissioning tool.
Parameters the manual names
- p8920 (PN name of station) — the first of the parameters holding the onboard PROFINET interface configuration that has to be checked for the syntax error in this alarm.
- p8925 (Activate PN interface configuration) — set to 1 to activate the corrected interface configuration, and to 2 to save the parameters for the interface configuration.
Acknowledging and restarting
No acknowledgement is required for this alarm. Once the syntax error has been corrected and the configuration activated (p8925 = 1), the cause is removed; the corrected configuration should then be saved (p8925 = 2).
The same on every family
Every manual that describes A08562 gives it the same reaction, acknowledgement and message class.

Questions technicians ask
What does alarm A08562 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
A syntax error has been found in the ASCII configuration file for the onboard PROFINET interface, so the saved configuration file has not been loaded.
How do I fix alarm A08562?
Check the interface configuration from p8920 onwards and correct the syntax errors, then activate the configuration with p8925 = 1 and save it with p8925 = 2. Alternatively, reinitialize the station via the "Edit Ethernet node" screen form, for example with STARTER.
Does A08562 have to be acknowledged?
No. No acknowledgement is required; once the corrected configuration has been activated with p8925 = 1, the cause of the alarm is removed.
Which parameters belong to alarm A08562?
p8920 and the parameters following it hold the PROFINET interface configuration to be checked, and p8925 activates the corrected configuration (value 1) or saves it (value 2).
