F30630 — SI P2: Brake control error

On these drives the Safety Integrated (SI) function is integrated in the drive on the Motor Module (MM) and monitors the motor holding brake control. F30630 means that this function has detected a brake control error and has initiated a STOP A. The message value of the fault is the fault value: the drive stores it in r0949 and it must be interpreted as a decimal number. The value tells you which brake operation or which component raised the error — use the list below to narrow the search down before touching anything. SBC in this entry stands for Safe Brake Control.

• The Safety Integrated function integrated in the drive on the Motor Module has detected a brake control error and initiated a STOP A.
• The motor cable is not shielded correctly.
• A defect in the brake control circuit of the Motor Module.
• Which specific cause applies depends on the fault value: an incorrectly set p1278, no brake connected or wire breakage, a ground fault in the brake cable, a short-circuit in the brake winding, a fault in the brake control circuit of the Control Unit or a communication fault to the Motor Module, or a fault on the Safe Brake Adapter. The list under "Fault value" names the causes for each value.

1. Check p1278 (brake control diagnostics evaluation). For SBC, only p1278 = 0 is permissible.
2. Select Safe Torque Off and de-select it again.
3. Check the connection of the motor holding brake.
4. Check the function of the motor holding brake.
5. Check whether there is a DRIVE-CLiQ communication error between the Control Unit and the Motor Module involved and, if required, carry out a diagnostics routine for the faults identified.
6. Check that the electrical cabinet design and cable routing comply with EMC regulations — for example, the shields of the motor cable and the brake conductors must be connected to the shield connecting plate and the motor connectors screwed tightly to the housing.
7. Replace the Motor Module involved.
8. When operating with a Safe Brake Module or Safe Brake Adapter: check its connection and, if required, replace the Safe Brake Module or Safe Brake Adapter.

• 10 — fault in the "open holding brake" operation: parameter p1278 incorrectly set; no brake connected or wire breakage (check whether the brake releases for p1278 = 1 and p9602/p9802 = 0, i.e. SBC deactivated); ground fault in the brake cable.
• 30 — fault in the "close holding brake" operation: no brake connected or wire breakage (check whether the brake releases for p1278 = 1 and p9602/p9802 = 0, i.e. SBC deactivated); short-circuit in the brake winding.
• 40 — fault in the "brake closed" state.
• 60, 70 — fault in the brake control circuit of the Control Unit or communication fault between the Control Unit and the Motor Module (brake control).
• 81 — Safe Brake Adapter: fault in the "brake closed" state.
• 82 — Safe Brake Adapter: fault for the operation "open brake".
• 83 — Safe Brake Adapter: fault for the operation "close brake".
• 84, 85 — Safe Brake Adapter: fault in the brake control circuit of the Control Unit or communication fault between the Control Unit and the Motor Module (brake control).
• 90 — brake released for service purposes (X4).
• 91 — fault in the "open holding brake" operation: no brake connected or wire breakage (check whether the brake releases for p1278 = 1 and p9602/p9802 = 0, i.e. SBC deactivated).

• r0949 — stores the fault value of this fault; read it as a decimal number to identify the brake operation or component that raised F30630.
• p1278 — brake control diagnostics evaluation: check its setting for this fault; with SBC, only p1278 = 0 is permissible.
• p9602 — SI enable Safe Brake Control (Control Unit): set to 0, together with p9802, to deactivate SBC for the brake-release check.
• p9802 — SI enable Safe Brake Control (Motor Module): the Motor Module-side switch that must also read 0 for the same brake-release check.

F30630 lies in the safety monitoring channel and must be acknowledged immediately. The drive only accepts the acknowledgment on a POWER ON: switch the power supply of the drive off and then on again. Once the fault has been acknowledged and the cause found under the checks above eliminated, the drive can be returned to service.
