Hello, error simucube 1. Motor Fault: Initialization Fault! Fault Location ID: 0

Hello and thanks in advance

After a couple of months of disconnecting my Simucube I found this error

First of all my e-stop had been left open, although I have solved it by placing a bridge and cancelling it

I can’t get past this and I can’t find the error code in the list

Thanks

Update:

LD3 in LSS (Initialization)
LD4 in LSS (Homing)

I think to get more data you should post all your settings from Granity.

We have seen a few cases where the settings are reset for some reason to defaults.

Ok, I’m gathering information to share.
Thanks for answering
Regards

Hi :wink:

I sent the complete simucube1 steering wheel assembly to the assembler AUGURY (who built it).

They found a malfunction on the IONI board. It took them a long time to communicate with it and after reflashing the problem persists.

I think they will contact you or simucube to see if there are possibilities of repair or replacement.

Regards

That is not good news.

I have this problem also (same error), it is intermittent for me though.

No idea what clears it up, after restarting the PSU, plugging/unplugging USB, different USB ports and even rebooting the PC It eventually functions again. Sometimes one or the other attempts results in function.

The next time it happens I will post my own thread with images of all the settings.

We know that IONI will not start up if there is too much EMI in the system and it cannot measure stable enough zero-values for analog current measurements. Thats why it can appear to be a bit strange sometimes.

Any update to your issue? I am having the same problem.

Has the issue just started or how it has become to be?

Yes it has just started. I had undervoltage faults in the past but they would just go away. I haven’t used the simucube in months and now I only get this error.

It would be nice to see what the voltages look like, if you can access the IONI via Granity software.

I am out of town for but will see if I can pull that information from Granity when I return. I was unable to connect to the device about a week ago but I will try again. Thanks for the help

I am using an AKM53K motor. Beano had sent me configuration files years ago to get it running

24 V supply? thats oddity.

However please click the Software Enable on the first tab in Granity. The information clearly shows that the servo drive is not in enabled state at this point. Simucube Firmware will automatically enable the drive on startup but I think it will be disabled when you restart the drive to go to Granity. Also the fault code visible (192002) says that it is waiting to be enabled.
