FM-3 Programming Module Installation Manual
Fault Descriptions
Flash Invalid
This fault indicates that the firmware checksum has failed. Use the Tools Program Flash
menu item from Emerson Motion Control PowerTools® to reprogram/upgrade the firmware
stored in flash memory. If this problem persists, call EMERSON Motion Control. A common
cause would be an interrupted F/W Flash upgrade (cable disconnected during an upgrade
process).
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer ensures that the firmware is operating normally. If the firmware fails to
reset this timer every 10 ms, the drive hardware will be reset, all inputs and outputs will be
cleared (“Off”), and a Watchdog Timer fault is generated.
Power Up Test
This fault indicates that the power-up self-test has failed. This fault cannot be reset with the
reset command or reset button.
NVM Invalid
At power-up the drive tests the integrity of the non-volatile memory. This fault is generated
if the contents of the non-volatile memory are invalid.
FM-3 Fault
A 3 will be displayed in the segment display on the E Series drive when the FM-3 experiences
a fault. See the table above for more information about the various faults.
