SRVO-207: TP switch abnormal or Door open

The inverse fault of the SVEMG family: the emergency stop line disconnected with no emergency-stop cause present - something in the chain is opening the line on its own.

What it means

The inverse fault of the SVEMG family: the emergency stop line disconnected with no emergency-stop cause present - something in the chain is opening the line on its own. The remedy is a component-swap ladder through the E-stop chain.

Common causes

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

  1. Faulty teach pendant.
  2. Teach pendant cable.
  3. Operator's panel.
  4. E-stop unit.
  5. Servo amplifier.

How to fix it

  1. Work FANUC's swap order with the controller de-energized and locked out for each exchange: pendant, pendant cable, operator's panel, E-stop unit, then amplifier. Cheapest and most-handled components come first, which is also where intermittent faults live.
  2. If the ladder does not resolve it, document the events and contact FANUC.
