What it means
F01011 reports that the download of the project to the drive was interrupted before it completed. The drive answers an interrupted download by going to the state 'first commissioning', so it holds no complete project until one has been loaded successfully. Depending on the drive's configuration, the same condition can also be signalled as a message with no reaction. The drive stores the reason for the interruption as a fault value in r0949, which is interpreted as a decimal number.
Why it appears
- The project download was stopped prematurely by the user.
- The communication cable was interrupted, for example a cable break or a cable that was withdrawn.
- The commissioning software (for example STARTER or SCOUT) ended the project download prematurely.
- The firmware version and the project files loaded into the file system via 'Download from memory card' are different versions.
What to check
- Check the communication cable.
- Download the project again.
- Alternatively, boot from the previously saved files — either by switching the drive off and on again or via p0976.
- If the project was loaded into the file system from the memory card ('Download from memory card'), repeat the download with the version that matches the firmware.
Reading the message value
- 1 — the user prematurely interrupted the project download.
- 2 — the communication cable was interrupted (e.g. cable breakage, cable withdrawn).
- 3 — the project download was prematurely exited by the commissioning software (e.g. STARTER, SCOUT).
- 100 — different versions between the firmware version and the project files which were loaded by loading into the file system 'Download from memory card'.
Parameters the manual names
- r0949 — read the fault value here as a decimal number to see which of the four interruptions the drive has signalled.
- p0976 — use this to boot the drive from the previously saved parameter files instead of repeating the project download.
Acknowledging and restarting
Put a complete project back on the drive and the condition is over: download the project again, or boot from the previously saved files — by switching the drive off and on again or via p0976. When the project came from the memory card into the file system, first make sure the project files match the firmware version, then repeat the download.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — F01011 is not described identically everywhere.
| Drive family | Reaction | Acknowledge | Message class | Component | Manual |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| G130, G150 | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS G130, G150 List Manual · p. 1373 |
| S120, S150 | — | — | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2558 |
The drives this code lives on

Questions technicians ask
What does fault F01011 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
It reports that a project download was interrupted before it completed. The drive goes to the state 'first commissioning', and the fault value in r0949 shows what interrupted the download.
How do I clear F01011?
Check the communication cable, then download the project again, or boot from the previously saved files by switching the drive off and on or via p0976. For a download into the file system from the memory card, use a project version that matches the firmware.
What does fault value 100 of F01011 mean?
It means the firmware version and the project files loaded into the file system via 'Download from memory card' are different versions. Repeat the download with the matching version.
Can F01011 appear without a shutdown?
Yes — depending on the drive's configuration, the same condition can also be signalled as a message with no reaction.
