Good afternoon forum,

The power module started doing strange things so I changed it for a new one then the machine was working fine for about 2 weeks then I got an error F16 on the led display of the module, after looking it up online it says the configuration of the power module on the control card is wrong but after looking it up (p95) it was what it is meant to be (10)

I don't know what else to try, has anyone had this problem before?

Good afternoon forum,

I have a 200A module (6SN11231AA010FA1) with a control card 6SN11210ba110AA1

The power module started doing strange things so I changed it for a new one then the machine was working fine for about 2 weeks then I got an error F16 on the led display of the module, after looking it up online it says the configuration of the power module on the control card is wrong but after looking it up (p95) it was what it is meant to be (10)

I don't know what else to try, has anyone had this problem before?

 

Hello,

F-16 = Illegal/incorrect power module code. Please check the FW version of your drive control card. Probably it must be less than 3 as such it could not detect on line power module. P095 = 10 is correct since your power module rating is 200 A. (10 is code number for 200 A power module. Please refer attached sheet for code details.)

We have observed this type of behaviour during power switch ON of drive. Please check control card is properly/tightly inserted in power module, tightness of drive bus connectors, drive power module connections, motor connections etc.

HTH.

After talking to Siemens they said that the control card was faulty so I bought a new one, right now I'm in the factory trying to install the new one.

Firmware version is 3.2

Does anyone have a parameter list?

Also a big problem I now have is that I cannot change that parameter (95) it won't let me

I have the parameters now, i did it the old fashioned way , one by one.

The problem im having is that i cant get rid of the F16 error , parameter 95 = 3

 Hello,

Is it Siemens asynchronous motor or third party motor? Have you tried by replacing power/LT module? 

Please refer attached sheet, which states - control card FW version (P099) from 3.0 automatically recognises power module & in such case it is not possible to modify P095. 

During intialization control card recognises power module.

Have you carried out intilaization? Set p051 = 4H, set P097 = 0H. Then Set P052 = 1H. This will set the intialized parameters in FEPROM. Wait until P052 becomes 0H. Then switch OFF power of drive converter, display will be dark, again switch ON power of drive converter, check p095 code, it must be 10 in your case for 200 A capacity power module, in case of Siemens motor enter motor code number, in p098 enter encoder ppr & set p097 = 1H, SET UP will be displayed.

If non Siemens motor is used, set p051 = 10H, enter correct values in p159 to p176, set p177 = 1H, this will calculate motor data, wait until p177 becomes 0H, set p051 = 4H, set p052 = 1H, wait until p052 becomes 0 so that motor data will be saved in FEPROM. 

HTH. 

I'm at the factory now,

The power module I changed two weeks ago and it was working untill this error popped up then I changed the control and I have the same error (F16) I have a Siemens motor and I followed the steps as per the manual (the same as you said) but it still comes up as 3 on the parameter 95 after talking to Siemens they said that they don't know what's happening 

Hello,

Hope after initialization procedure, your problem would have been solved.

Please confirm.
