Understanding the Fault
Detail Window

Use the Fault Detail window to view traces of selected drive signals for a period of
time immediately prior to the occurrence of a fault. This feature is helpful when
because a fault event is always at the right of the screen.

The Faults window has these parameters, and commands associated with it.

The Fault Detail window has no associated statuses.

Parameter Description

Samples per division

Number of samples per division. For example, 32 samples per
division will result in 4 horizontal divisions.

Channel A and B

The input signal selected for each channel in the Faults window is
displayed directly below the Channel heading. Input signals
include:
Visible: Lets you selectively hide or show each channel in the

scope. Yes includes the channel.

Selected Signal: Assigns Digital Inputs and Digital Outputs to a

Channel. When this signal is selected, data is collected for all of
the digital inputs and outputs.
Note; One input or output is required for the scope to display.

Scale Type: Scale Types are:

Auto
Manual
Same As Ch A (available for Channel B only)
Same As Ch B (available for Channel A only)

Scale: The amplitude of the selected channel input signal that

can be displayed between gridlines of the oscilloscope, in the
units of the drive signal. It is dependent on the signal selected.
If the Scale is left at its default value of 0, The data is
automatically scaled to fit the graph.
Note: Scale is visible only when the Scale Type is Manual.

Offset: The trace offset for the selected Channel Input. Its range

depends on the signal selected. A value of zero places the zero
value of the signal at the middle grid line. A nonzero offset
shifts the trace up or down so that the offset value is positioned
at the middle grid line.
Note: Offset is visible only when the Scale Type is Manual.

Oscilloscope Display

Defines how the y-axis and trace are displayed.
Y-axis Labels: The labels to display on the y-axis:

Default displays one reference point for Channel A and one
reference point for Channel B.
Channel A displays only the Channel A reference points.
Channel B displays only the Channel B reference points.

Legend: Displays the color of the trace for each input signal or

channel. Click the color rectangles displayed in the legend to
modify a color.

Command Description

Refresh Data

Acquires the fault information from the drive.
Use this button if a new fault occurs while this window is open,
and you want to see the data for the new fault.
