What it means
N35800 (TM: Group signal) is a group message raised by a Terminal Module (TM) — depending on the drive object, for example a TM120, TM15, TM150, TM17, TM31 or TM41. The Terminal Module has detected at least one fault, and this message gathers that condition without naming the individual fault itself. The same condition can also be issued as fault F35800; which form the drive outputs is decided by its configuration.
Why it appears
- The Terminal Module has detected at least one fault. The code is only a group signal and does not identify which fault it is.
What to check
- The manual's remedy for this code is a single step:
Evaluates other actual messages.
So open the list of currently active faults and alarms on the operator panel or in the commissioning tool and identify the message that is really present. - Follow the cause and remedy given on the page for that other message — this group signal only points to it.
Acknowledging and restarting
The message form of this code needs no acknowledgement and no special reset. If the drive is configured to raise the same condition as fault F35800 instead, the drive carries out the reaction configured for that fault and the fault must be acknowledged IMMEDIATELY before the drive will start again.
What differs between the drive families
Straight from the manuals' own fields — N35800 is not described identically everywhere.
| Drive family | Reaction | Acknowledge | Message class | Component | Manual |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S120, S150 | Infeed: OFF2 (NONE, OFF1) Servo: OFF2 (IASC/DCBRK, NONE, OFF1, OFF3, STOP2) Vector: OFF2 (IASC/DCBRK, NONE, OFF1, OFF3, STOP2) Hla: OFF2 (NONE, OFF1, OFF3, STOP2) | NONE | General drive fault (19) | None | SINAMICS S120, S150 List Manual · p. 3232 |
| G130, G150 | Vector: OFF2 (IASC/DCBRK, NONE, OFF1, OFF3, STOP2) Infeed: OFF2 (NONE, OFF1) | NONE | General drive fault (19) | None | SINAMICS G130, G150 List Manual · p. 1895 |

Questions technicians ask
What does N35800 mean on a SINAMICS drive?
It is a group signal from a Terminal Module: the module has detected at least one fault. The message itself does not say which fault — the actual fault or alarm is among the other currently active messages.
How do I acknowledge or reset N35800?
As a message it requires no acknowledgement at all. If your configuration outputs the same condition as fault F35800, that fault must be acknowledged IMMEDIATELY before the drive restarts.
What is the difference between N35800 and F35800?
They are the same condition from the Terminal Module. The drive configuration decides whether it appears as a message without a reaction (N35800) or as a fault with a reaction and IMMEDIATELY acknowledgement (F35800).
Which Terminal Modules can report N35800?
Any Terminal Module present in the configuration, for example TM120, TM15, TM150, TM17, TM31 or TM41, depending on the drive object.
