SRVO-075: Pulse not established

The absolute encoder hasn't yet established its position reference - the expected follow-up after a BZAL (SRVO-062) or CMAL (SRVO-073) event and battery/encoder work.

What it means

The absolute encoder hasn't yet established its position reference - the expected follow-up after a BZAL (SRVO-062) or CMAL (SRVO-073) event and battery/encoder work. Not a new problem: it's the recovery sequence asking for one more step.

Common causes

Ranked by what technicians most often find, most likely first.

  1. Normal aftermath of BZAL/CMAL recovery - the encoder needs motion to re-establish its pulse reference.
  2. Appearing on its own without a preceding encoder event: treat as an encoder/cable investigation.

How to fix it

  1. Reset the alarm, then jog the named axis about one motor revolution until the alarm stops recurring.
  2. This must be cleared BEFORE mastering - it's the step people skip, then wonder why mastering won't take.
  3. Then complete the mastering procedure and verify positions before production.
