What it means
F07013 is raised when the drive detects a fault in the configuration of the motor temperature model. The drive stores a fault value in r0949 — read it as a decimal number — and that value identifies which of the cases 300 to 303 applies, so it tells you where to start looking.
Why it appears
- The configuration of the motor temperature model is faulty. Which of the possible configuration problems applies is shown by the fault value in r0949 (decimal) — see the fault value list below.
What to check
- Check the encoder type — p0404 shows which encoder configuration is currently effective.
- Check the motor type, i.e. the motor type selection p0300 and the motor code number selection p0301 for the motor actually connected.
- Check the activation of the motor temperature model in p0612; if the fault value is 302, look for another temperature model that is activated at the same time.
- Check the parameters of the motor temperature model, starting with p5350 and the parameters that follow it.
Reading the message value
- 300 — Motor temperature model 3: the sensor does not supply the necessary sensor temperature for the thermal model.
- 301 — Motor temperature model 3: the sensor type is unknown.
- 302 — Motor temperature model 3: at least one other temperature model was simultaneously activated.
- 303 — the motor temperature model is unknown in the actual firmware version.
Parameters the manual names
- r0949 — fault value: read it as a decimal number to identify which configuration problem (300 to 303) tripped F07013.
- p0300 — motor type selection: check that the motor type set here is correct for the connected motor.
- p0301 — motor code number selection: check the motor code number that belongs to the connected motor.
- p0404 — effective encoder configuration: check which encoder configuration is currently effective while verifying the encoder type.
- p0612 — motor temperature model activation: check that the intended model is activated and that no other temperature model is active alongside it.
- p5350 — motor temperature model 1/3 boost factor at standstill: the beginning of the model parameter block ('p5350 and following') to check.
Acknowledging and restarting
While the fault is active the drive coasts down. Correct the configuration first, then acknowledge the fault and restart the drive. Acknowledging alone does not remove the cause: as long as the temperature model configuration stays inconsistent, the fault reappears.
The same on every family
Every manual that describes F07013 gives it the same reaction, acknowledgement and message class.
| Drive family | Reaction | Acknowledge | Message class | Component | Manual |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S120, S150 | OFF2 (NONE, OFF1, OFF3, STOP2) | IMMEDIATELY | Motor overload (8) | Motor | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2779 |

Questions technicians ask
What does SINAMICS fault F07013 mean?
The configuration of the motor temperature model is faulty. The fault value in r0949, read as a decimal number, shows which of the cases 300 to 303 the drive detected.
How do I clear fault F07013?
Check the encoder type (p0404), the motor type (p0300, p0301), the activation of the motor temperature model (p0612) and the model parameters from p5350 onward. Then acknowledge the fault and restart the drive.
What does fault value 302 in F07013 mean?
Value 302 means that at least one other temperature model was activated at the same time as motor temperature model 3. Check the model activation in p0612.
Which SINAMICS drives report F07013?
The manual describes this fault for SINAMICS S120 and S150.
