Encoder terminal EL/KL5001 reports error.
Description | An SSI encoder terminal EL/KL5001 reports an error. The terminal indicates an error in its status bits. Assign the error bits to the error type as follows:
Bit number | Bitmask | Meaning
0 | 0x01 | Data error (error at SSI input)
1 | 0x02 | Frame error (invalid data frame received by the sensor)
2 | 0x04 | Power failure (encoder-specific error bit is set)
For more information, refer to the terminal and encoder documentation.
Response | Class | 2 | Error message output abort program.
Solution | Class | 3 | Possible reasons for this error message are:

- Terminal has parameter setting error
- Wiring error
- Error in encoder connected to the terminal

Solution: Change the terminal parameter settings; correct wiring error or error in encoder.

Parameter | %1: | Current value [-]
Read-in value of the status byte
%2: | Logical axis number [-]
| Logical axis number (P-AXIS-00016) of affected axis
Error type | 11, Error message from position controller.
