Rexroth Error Codes: The F Codes

Rexroth error codes show up when there is a problem with your Rexroth motion control systems. Don’t panic! These codes are there to help you. The overview Rexroth error codes have one letter and four numbers in the string. Often, the first item in the code is “F.” That means it’s a fault. A code… Read more »

Indradrive Error E2061

There are so many Indradrive error messages that you probably can’t memorize them all — especially since Rexroth doesn’t break down enough to give you much experience with any of those codes. E2061 might be worth memorizing, though. E2061 is the prewarning for device overload. It means that the load for the drive has exceeded… Read more »

Rexroth Error F8069

When your Rexroth electric industrial motion control devices have a problem, they will show you an error code. Typically these codes begin with “E” or “F” and the letter is followed by four digits. Error F8069 shows that there is an error in the internal +/‑15 Volt supply. You’ll see this error with IndraDrive units…. Read more »

Rexroth Servo Drive Fault Codes: Non-fatal Errors

There are fatal errors and non-fatal errors. That doesn’t mean that the non-fatal errors are unimportant. But in some cases the fix can be very simple. Simple solutions You might be surprised by the number of different things that can cause a non-fatal error. And you certainly can be surprised by how many of those… Read more »

Rexroth Error Codes: The Excessives

Rexroth error messages are made up of a diagnostic code and a diagnostic text. For error F2028, “F2” and “28” alternate on the H1 display. In the diagnostic message, it shows as F2028. F2028 is one of the “excessive” — error codes that tell you there’s too much of something. In this case, it’s too… Read more »

F276 “What do you mean, it moved?”

F276 is a movement error on units that have absolute encoders. The short story is that the drive stores the position of the motor as it shuts down, and then compares it to the position of the motor when it starts up. If the value difference is larger than the value in P-0-0097, it throws… Read more »

Rexroth Drive Error F260

  Error F260 will show up for your Rexroth EcoDrive CS Drive Controllers under several circumstances. Basically, it has reached the peak current level. You’ll get an E260 warning. If the problem continues, you’ll get the F260 error and the drive controller will shut down. How did it reach the peak current level? Sometimes, it’s… Read more »

CLC Error Codes

  You’ve got a problem with your Rexroth Indramat CLC-D and it’s blinking at you with some incomprehensible letters and numbers. It’s almost insulting, like a tourist shouting loudly in English as though more volume would cause the person he’s talking with to understand English better. And you aren’t understanding Rexroth machine-speak any better just… Read more »

Rexroth Servo Overheating

Rexroth servo motors are workhorses — we get calls every week from engineers who have just discovered a Rexroth servo in their plant that’s older than they are. Often, the call to us is the first sign of trouble since someone installed the servo back in the 20th century. And while there are plenty of… Read more »

Rexroth Error E2077

When you see E2077 sent as an error message by your Rexroth drive, you’re looking at a communication failure. Basically, your drive can’t read the encoder signal. There are a number of possible reasons for this. Check the simplest possibilities first. Is the motor encoder cable correctly connected to the same drive as the power… Read more »
