What it means
F07967 is raised when a fault occurs while the drive is performing the automatic encoder adjustment or the pole position identification. On the G120 and G120XA the manual titles the code Drive: Incorrect pole position identification
and locates the fault in the pole position identification routine; in the S120, S150, G130 and G150 manuals the cause also covers the automatic encoder adjustment. The manuals give no detail beyond this: the cause is marked as intended only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.
Why it appears
- A fault occurred during the automatic encoder adjustment or during the pole position identification.
- On the G120 and G120XA the manual narrows this to a fault during the pole position identification routine.
- The manual gives no further causes: the entry is intended only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.
What to check
- Carry out a POWER ON. This is the only remedy the manuals give for this code; no other remedial steps are described.
Acknowledging and restarting
The drive coasts down (OFF2) when this fault is raised. The fault may be acknowledged immediately; the remedy the manual gives is to carry out a POWER ON.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — F07967 is not described identically everywhere.
