What it means
F07084 tells you that a condition which a macro waits for with WaitUntil was not fulfilled in a certain number of attempts — the drive checked the condition repeatedly and gave up. The message value identifies the parameter for which the condition was set, so the failed macro step can be traced directly.
Why it appears
- A WaitUntil condition was set in the macro, and the condition was not fulfilled within the certain number of attempts the drive allows for the loop.
What to check
- Check the conditions that have been set for the WaitUntil loop of the macro.
- Correct the conditions so that the WaitUntil condition can be fulfilled.
- Acknowledge the fault immediately afterwards.
Reading the message value
- Fault value in r0949, to be interpreted as a decimal number: it contains the parameter number for which the WaitUntil condition was set.
- The message value is shown as “Parameter: %1”, where %1 is that parameter number.
Parameters the manual names
- r0949 (fault value): read it as a decimal number to find the parameter for which the macro's WaitUntil condition was set.
Acknowledging and restarting
Check and correct the conditions of the WaitUntil loop in the macro; the fault can then be acknowledged immediately. The drive itself triggers no automatic shutdown for this fault — the message only signals that the WaitUntil condition was not fulfilled, so correcting the macro and acknowledging the fault is what is needed to continue.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — F07084 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. 1537 |
| S120, S150 | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 2783 |
| G120 | NONE | IMMEDIATELY | Error in the parameterization / configuration / commissioning procedure (18) | — | SINAMICS G120 · p. 873 |

Questions technicians ask
What does fault F07084 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
A WaitUntil condition set in a macro was not fulfilled in a certain number of attempts. The fault value in r0949 shows the parameter for which the condition was set.
How do I clear fault F07084?
Check and correct the conditions for the WaitUntil loop of the macro, then acknowledge the fault immediately. The drive performs no automatic shutdown for this fault.
Which parameter triggered F07084?
Read r0949 and interpret the value as a decimal number — it contains the parameter number for which the WaitUntil condition was set. The message value is also displayed as “Parameter: %1” with that number.
Does F07084 stop the drive?
No — the drive initiates no automatic reaction to this fault. The message only signals the failed WaitUntil condition and can be acknowledged immediately.
