F32950 — Encoder 2: Internal software error

F32950 means that an internal software error has occurred in the Sensor Module Encoder 2, the drive's second encoder evaluation module. The error lies in the Sensor Module's own software; the only cause the manual names is this software error itself. The fault value stored with the message merely identifies the internal fault source and is, by the manual's own statement, meant only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.

• An internal software error has occurred in the Sensor Module Encoder 2. The manuals name no further cause for this fault.

1. If necessary, upgrade the firmware in the Sensor Module to a later version.
2. Contact Technical Support; the fault value information in r0949 is intended for their internal diagnosis.

• The drive writes the fault value into r0949; interpret the value as a decimal number.
• The value contains information about the fault source.
• The manual publishes no decoding of individual values and states that this information is only for internal Siemens troubleshooting.

• r0949 — fault value of the message. For F32950 it holds the information about the fault source, read as a decimal; there is no value to set or change here, the parameter only serves the internal diagnosis of this software error.

Acknowledging this fault requires a POWER ON: the drive must be switched off and on again before F32950 is cleared and the drive can be restarted. If the fault returns after the power cycle, follow the remedy above — Sensor Module firmware upgrade, then Technical Support.
