What it means
F01510 reports that a BICO interconnection could not be made: the connector output selected as the signal source does not have the float data type that the connector input requires. Because the data type does not match, the drive does not establish this interconnection. The fault value names the parameter concerned, so the faulty interconnection can be located directly.
Why it appears
- The requested connector output does not have the correct data type — the connector input expects a signal source with the float data type.
- Because the data type does not match, the drive does not establish this interconnection.
What to check
- Read the fault value in r0949 and interpret it as a decimal number — it is the parameter number of the connector output to which the interconnection should have been made.
- Interconnect this connector input with a connector output that has the float data type.
Reading the message value
- The drive stores the fault value in r0949; the manuals state that it must be interpreted as a decimal number.
- The value is the parameter number of the connector output to which the interconnection should be made.
- In the message value the manuals print
Parameter: %1
— the placeholder %1 therefore stands for this parameter number.
Parameters the manual names
- r0949 — fault value: read it as a decimal number to get the parameter number of the connector output that the failed BICO interconnection was to use.
Acknowledging and restarting
The drive takes no automatic action in response to this fault; it only signals that the interconnection was not established. After the connector input has been re-interconnected with a connector output of float data type, acknowledge the fault immediately.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — F01510 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. 1424 |
| S120, S150 | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2615 |
| G120 | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | — | SINAMICS G120 · p. 834 |
| G120XA | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | — | — | SINAMICS G120XA PN converter · p. 1111 |

Questions technicians ask
What does fault F01510 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
A BICO interconnection was to be made to a connector input, but the connector output used as the signal source does not have the float data type. The drive does not establish this interconnection and reports F01510.
How do I find the parameter behind F01510?
Read the fault value in r0949 and interpret it as a decimal number. It is the parameter number of the connector output to which the interconnection should have been made.
How is F01510 fixed?
Interconnect the connector input with a connector output that has the float data type, then acknowledge the fault immediately. The wrong data type of the signal source is the only cause the manuals give.
Does F01510 shut the drive down?
No. The drive triggers no automatic reaction; the fault only indicates that the affected BICO interconnection was not established.
