Overview
In PF7000 drives with ForGe control, a specific memory location has
been set aside to capture and store critical data in the event of a fault
condition. This data is referred to as "Control Data". There are total 8
buffers where the data is stored sequentially on first-in first-out basis,
which ensures the data of 8 most recent faults is always available. The
data can be retrieved for analysis.
The method of retrieving Control Data is explained below.
