Fault Detection Processing
Faults can be detected by two methods: Drive fault detection and SI-T3 fault detection.
The SI-T3 is notified of drive faults by the internal interface, and the SI-T3 sends the response data, ALARM or
STATUS.
The SI-T3 notifies drive of SI-T3 faults by the internal interface, and the faults are simultaneously sent the response data,
ALARM or STATUS.
The following four types of faults can be detected. The subsequent operation varies depending on the type of fault.

When consecutive alarms occur, the SI-T3 provides notification of the most recent alarm with a MECHATROLINK
response data. If warnings occur simultaneously, notification priority is given to the warning with the lowest warning
code. If alarms and warnings are mixed together, the SI-T3 gives notification priority to alarms.
