What it means
F06321 monitors the master/slave current distribution: a 6-channel multiplexer selects the current distribution factor, and the selection is fed to connector input p3577 through a BICO interconnection (CI: p3577). Only the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are valid. If the drive identifies any other value at p3577, it raises F06321; the multiplexer control remains effective with the previous value, so the last valid selection stays in force until a valid value is applied again.
Why it appears
- An invalid value was identified for the 6-channel multiplexer control via connector input p3577 — the valid values are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
What to check
- Read the fault value in r0949, interpreting it as a decimal number — it contains the invalid value that was used to control the multiplexer.
- Check the interconnection used to control the multiplexer (CI: p3577).
- Check the signal value of the signal source of the BICO interconnection and make sure it supplies one of the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.
Reading the message value
- r0949, interpret decimal: invalid value used to control the multiplexer. The drive writes the offending value into r0949; read the number decimally to see which value was applied at p3577. No bit assignment is given for this fault value.
Parameters the manual names
- p3577 (CI: Master/slave current distribution factor multiplexer selection / I_dist_factor sel) — the connector input whose value triggers this fault; check the BICO interconnection at CI: p3577 and the value it delivers, since only 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are valid.
- r0949 (fault value) — read it, interpreting the value decimally, to see the invalid value with which the multiplexer was controlled.
Acknowledging and restarting
The drive takes no automatic reaction to this fault: while the value is invalid, the multiplexer control simply keeps working with the previous value. Correct the interconnection or its signal source so that p3577 again receives one of the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, and acknowledge the fault — it can be acknowledged immediately.

Questions technicians ask
What does SINAMICS fault F06321 mean?
The 6-channel multiplexer control via connector input p3577 received an invalid value. Only the values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are valid, and the control keeps working with the previous value until a valid value arrives.
Which values are valid at p3577 to avoid F06321?
The values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. Any other value at p3577 triggers F06321, and the multiplexer stays on the last valid selection.
How do I fix fault F06321?
Check the interconnection that controls the multiplexer at CI: p3577 and check the signal value that the signal source of this BICO interconnection delivers. Once a valid value is applied again, acknowledge the fault.
Where can I see which value was invalid in F06321?
In r0949. Interpret the fault value as a decimal number — it contains the invalid value that was used to control the multiplexer.
