What it means
A36211 is the alarm Hub: Overtemperature alarm component
: the temperature on the DRIVE-CLiQ Hub Module has exceeded the alarm threshold. The drive reports the actual temperature together with the message. Depending on how the drive is configured, the same condition can also be output as a fault or with no reaction.
Why it appears
- The temperature on the DRIVE-CLiQ Hub Module has exceeded the alarm threshold.
What to check
- Check the ambient temperature at the installation location of the component.
- Replace the component involved.
Reading the message value
- The drive stores the actual temperature in the message value (%1), with 0.1 °C resolution.
- For the G130 and G150 the manual names the alarm value r2124 as the carrier of this value: read r2124 as a decimal number to obtain the actual temperature in 0.1 °C resolution.
Parameters the manual names
- r2124 — alarm value: holds the value belonging to this alarm; for A36211 it is the actual temperature on the hub, which the manual says to interpret as a decimal number in 0.1 °C resolution.
Acknowledging and restarting
As an alarm, A36211 needs no acknowledgement. Where the drive is configured to raise the same overtemperature condition as a fault, that fault must be acknowledged immediately.
The same on every family
Every manual that describes A36211 gives it the same reaction, acknowledgement and message class.
