3.2.1.3 Warnings

The encoder supports four classes of warnings:

Low Battery: The internal battery charge is checked one time after power up, if the capacity is low
this warning bit will be set.

High/Low-Temperature: This warning bit will be set if the temperature of the ADC exceeds the data
specified under 2.2. Short time exceeding is not registered by this system. Continuous tempera-
ture overrun may lead to position errors.

Internal ADC: This warning bit may be set if an internal serial interface error happen.

Light source: This bit reflects the light intensity of the light source. Light intensity decreases propor-
tional to life time and rotation speed of the system. Continuous low light intensity may lead to posi-
tion errors.

The Emergency Error Message data formatting partially according to IEC 61158-6-12 is:

Info

Table 22 Hardware emergency code description

3.2.2 EtherCAT Specific Errors

ECAT specific errors are such configuration or communication errors that are communicated via AL Status
register and emergency messages.

3.2.2.1 Sync Manager Watch Dog

The SM Watchdog may be enabled if necessary. Watchdog enable/disable mechanism may be controlled by
the XML file. The XML description file has different device <device> <RevisionNo>, those revision numbers
are usable to configure the Sync Manger with enabled/disabled Watch Dog. Please refer to Table 5 Sync
Manager configuration.
