F37886HF Damping Module (CU): Error when sending DRIVE-CLiQ data

What it means

F37886 reports a DRIVE-CLiQ communication error from the HF Damping Module to the Control Unit: the module's data could not be sent. The manual lists exactly one fault cause for this code — cause 65 (= 41 hex), Telegram type does not match send list. The fault concerns the HF Damping Module.

Why it appears

  • DRIVE-CLiQ communication error from the HF Damping Module to the Control Unit — the data were not able to be sent.
  • Fault cause 65 (= 41 hex): Telegram type does not match send list.

What to check

  1. Carry out a POWER ON — switch the drive's power supply off and back on again. This is the only remedy the manual describes for this fault.

Reading the message value

  • The manual prints the message value as component number (%1) and fault cause (%2) and codes both into one word: 0000yyxx hex, where yy = component number and xx = error cause.
  • The coded value is stored in r0949 (fault value) / r2124 (alarm value).
  • For this code the error cause portion is 65 (= 41 hex) — the telegram type does not match the send list.

Parameters the manual names

  • r0949 — fault value: read the coded message value of F37886 here (0000yyxx hex with component number and error cause).
  • r2124 — alarm value: named together with r0949 as the register holding the coded value for this message.

Acknowledging and restarting

The fault must be acknowledged immediately. The only remedy the manual describes is a POWER ON; once the drive has powered up again, acknowledge the fault. No further reset or repair step is described.
