Up to four 1TW boards can be used. But since there are four slots available for optional boards
in the card rack, the number of the 1TW boards is limited depending on the number of other
optional boards to be mounted.
The DC24 V for external equipment is not supplied from the controller; thus, be sure to prepare
DC24 V power when IO board is connected.
For connection with the external equipment, refer to Installation and Connection Manual and

2.8 ENCODER
There are three encoder models for the E Controller, MK32, M35 and M40, which differ by
installation method to the motor but share the same basic specifications. These electronic
multi-turn absolute encoders output 33 bits of data via serial communication. The 33 bits is the
sum of 17 bits of absolute angle position within one rotation by an optical encoder and 16 bits of
the number of rotations data read via counter counting magnetic pulse/rotation. The counter
data is backed up by a battery.
2.8.1 MAIN FUNCTIONS
The encoder performs the following functions:
1. Motor rotation angle detection
One rotation: 131072 (217) pulses
Number of rotations: 65536 (216) counts
When the motor rotates in the direction of CCW (seen from motor output axis side), the value
counts up.
Response speed is 6000 rpm
2. Communication
Position data is transmitted synchronizing with the data request signal from the servo board.
(Half duplex serial communications and baud rate: 4 Mbps)
3. Operational state per power supply voltage
Encoder operation changes per power supply voltage. There are three types of operations as
follows:
(1) Non-operating state:
All operation stops when power supply is +3.0 V or less.
(2) Backup state:
Rotation counter remains functional at +3.6 V to +5 V of power
supply.
(3) Normal operation state: Detects absolute position within one rotation, counts number of
rotations, and communicates with the controller at +5 V of power
supply.
4. Backup
By the backup of a built-in super capacitor, the rotation counter functions properly for 30
minutes after the 1FG/1HG board (encoder battery backup board) is disconnected.
2-29
E Series Controller
Kawasaki Robot Troubleshooting Manual
2. Description of Controller
5. Motor CS signal detection
Detects the magnetic pole position of the motor by installing the encoder at the position where
the rotation origin overlaps with the zero cross point of the motor’s voltage inducing U-phase.
6. Differences between MK32, M35 and M40
Installation method differs depending on the motor. MK32 is for large motors and separation
from the motor is possible. M35 and M40 are for small motors, and separation from the
motor is not possible.

2.9.2 1TC/1TD BOARD (POWER BLOCK BOARD)
The 1TC and 1TD boards are power block boards: the 1TC is for large-sized motor and
the 1TD is for small-sized motor. One power block board is used in each axis, and 6 boards are
used for the standard 6 axes spec. in the E series controller.
For optional 7, 8 and 9 axes specifications, the 1TC board (for large motor) and the 1TD board
(for small motors) are used in the amplifier unit for one axis. The board controls the power and
drives the AC servomotors receiving the commands from the 1TB board (servo board).
2.9.2.1 MAIN FUNCTIONS
The 1TC/1TD performs the following functions:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Receives PN power supply from the MC unit and uses it as a power.
Receives the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) commands from the 1TB board (servo board),
and controls the current for the motor by switching the IPM (Intelligent Power Modules).
Detects the current flowing in the motor by the current detection circuit, and feeds back to
the 1TB board.
Sends alarm signals of abnormal power module to the 1TB board when the IPM detects
overcurrent, overheat, etc.
Sets power block code by mounting the 0 Ω resistors RJ1 - RJ4. If the model setting in the
software and this code do not match, an error occurs.

The DC power supply for control (AVR) performs the following functions:
1. Converts input AC power into AC/DC power, and supplies +3.3 V, +5 V, +12 V, +24 V
necessary for each board.
2. Detects AC input power errors, and alerts the 1TR board. There are three types of detection
as follows.
(1) Detection of instant power failure
Detection level is 130 to 145 VAC or less. When this state continues for 25 to 35 msec, an
error signal is output to the 1TR board.
(2) Detection of over-voltage
Detection level is 267 to 283 VAC or more. When this state continues for 1 to 2 sec. or
more, an error signal is output to the 1TR board.
(3) Detection of low voltage
Detection level is 148 to 158 VAC or less. When this state continues for 1 to 2 sec. or more,
an error signal is output to the 1TR board.
3. Shuts down when the DC voltage on the output side is overloaded (outputs 105 % or more of
the rated capacity continuously for 5 sec. or more) or over-voltage state occurs (115 % - 130 %
of the rated capacity). It can be restored by re-inputting the power in 10 sec. or more after
shutdown.
4. Turns ON/OFF the DC output by the remote signal from the 1TR board.

3.1 INITIAL TROUBLES AND COUNTERMEASURES
This section describes the following most common initial troubles.
3.1.1 Initial Trouble 1: Controller power Does Not Turn ON
3.1.2 Initial Trouble 2: Teach Pendant Is Not Operable
3.1.3 Initial Trouble 3: Motor Power Does Not Turn ON
3.1.4 Initial Trouble 4: Robot Does Not Move
3.1.1 INITIAL TROUBLE 1: CONTROLLER POWER DOES NOT TURN ON
This occurs when the system does not activate even if the CONTROLLER POWER (NFB
(No-Fuse Breaker)) of the controller is turned ON. In the examples below, the controller power
switch is referred to as the CONTROLLER POWER.
1. When turning ON the CONTROLLER POWER of the controller, the NFB has immediately
tripped.
2. The CONTROLLER POWER in the controller can be turned ON, but the controller power
lamp on the operation panel does not light up.
Details of each case are described below.
Case1: When turning ON the CONTROLLER POWER of the controller, the NFB is
immediately tripped.
This occurs when controller power is not supplied to the controller because the NFB in the
controller has immediately tripped (turned OFF), even though CONTROLLER POWER was
turned ON.
Main cause:
1. The AC power line is short-circuited in the controller, and the controller power switch detects
overcurrent and then it has tripped.
2. Defect in the controller power switch.

DANGER
1. Before operation, be sure to intercept the external power switch so that the
external power supplied to the controller is shut OFF.
2. Display signs stating clearly “POWER CUT-OFF IN PROGRESS” or
“TROUBLESHOOTING IN PROGRESS”, and take measures to prevent
personnel from accidentally turning ON the power (tag or lock out power
switches, etc.).
1. Cut OFF the CONTROLLER POWER and then check the followings for short-circuit with a
tester (voltmeter).

R: FG
S: T
S: FG
T: R
T: FG
If there is any short-circuit after checking, replace the parts, such as controller harness,
transformer, etc.
2. Replace the controller power switch.
Case2: CONTROLLER POWER in the controller can be turned ON, but the controller
power lamp on the operation panel does not light up.
This occurs when the system does not activate properly because of an abnormality in the external
power supplied to the controller or in the power supply circuit of the controller.
Main cause:
1. The external power voltage supplied to the controller deviates from the specified value, the
external power supply/input cable is disconnected, or the external power is not supplied.
2. Power is not supplied to the AVR.
3. The power is not supplied to the controller power lamp due to a defect in the AVR, mother
board, or the lamp itself.
4. Failure in the external control power wiring for the power sequence board.
5. Defect such as disconnection, short-circuit, etc. of the wiring in the controller.
6. Immediately prior to the trouble occurrence, AVR security function for overcurrent/
overvoltage has been activated.

3. Troubleshooting
Countermeasure:
1. Check the specification of the external power voltage, and then check the external power
supply/input cable and the external power voltage.
2. Check the connection of the power connector to the AVR.
3. Check the output power voltage of the AVR, and check for defects in the controller power
lamp. Replace them if necessary.
4. Check for faults in the external control power wiring.
5. Check the wirings between NFB and AVR, and between mother board and controller power
lamp in the controller. Also, check for any abnormality in the +12 V power supply with

3.2 STEADY-STATE TROUBLES AND COUNTERMEASURES
Once a robot starts to move, error messages will be displayed for most assumable troubles. To
solve these troubles, follow the messages. If a trouble occurs under conditions which cannot be
assumed, no error messages will be displayed. In this case, please contact the nearest KHI
service center or branch office with the details of this trouble.
3.3 ERROR CLASSIFICATION
When an assumable error occurs, the code and message for that error is displayed and error is
classified into the following four types depending on its condition and seriousness. Error codes
are displayed with the letter, P, W, E or D in front (representing the error type) followed by a
four-digit number.
1. P: Operation error
Errors caused by operation mistakes. This type of error does not affect robot motion.
Example: “P0126 Illegal switch name.”
2. W: Warning
This is not yet an error but may cause an error if left unfixed.
Example: “W1013 Encoder battery low voltage.”
3. E: Minor failure
This is a minor failure which essentially can be recovered by the error reset function
without turning OFF/ON the controller power supply after the cause of error is removed.
Example: “E1082 Out of absolute lower limit.”
4. D: Major failure
This is a serious error involving hardware, software or peripheral devices which essentially
cannot be recovered by the error reset function, and its recovery requires turning OFF/ON
the controller power supply.
Example: “D1528 Controller temperature is out of range.”

3. Troubleshooting
Main cause:
1. The internal data of the encoder is not maintained due to a deterioration of the encoder backup
battery voltage, disconnection of the encoder harness, defective encoders, etc.
2. When the controller power is turned OFF due to abnormal power supply, etc. during the robot
motion, the arm cannot stop its motion immediately. Because of this, a discrepancy may be
caused between the last encoder value recorded by AS software and the current value at the
actual position of stoppage.
3. Initializing is executed. (This error occurs in all axes.)
4. The motor or the encoder is replaced.
5. The arm (motor) is moved forcibly during the controller power OFF.
Countermeasure:
1. Perform zeroing of the encoder promptly after replacing the motor or the encoder.
!
WARNING
There is a possibility that the internal data of the encoder is not
maintained when this error occurs. Therefore, confirm without fail that
angle value for each axis becomes 0 after setting all axes to their scribe
marks (mechanical origin) in teach mode. If the angle values do not
become 0, execute zeroing without fail.
!
CAUTION
After the error reset, automatic operation is possible.
However, beware there is a high possibility of causing
malposition of the robot as the current value goes out of order.
Do not fail to confirm the above-mentioned zeroing and the
playback of steps in check mode.
2. Check the battery for the encoder backup, and when it decreases to +3.3 V or less, replace the
battery promptly. Replace the encoder batteries used in all axes, including conveyor, at the
same time.
3. Check for disconnection or short-circuit in the encoder harness.

Error message : Deviation error of JtXX.
Error processing : Motor power OFF
Error reset : Acceptable
Content:
The difference between the present value of the encoder and the command value of the AS
software exceeded a rated value. This is detected by the servo software. The rated value
differs depending on robot models, axes, etc.
Main cause:
1. Mechanical factors:
(1) Robot arm came in contact with the jig, etc.
(2) Cables, etc. were caught by the robot arm.
(3) The reducer, gear, bearing, etc. are damaged.
(4) The backlash is too small in the gear reduction part.
(5) The payload exceeds robot rated weight.
(6) A robot motion pattern repeated which results in exceeding the rated motor capacity (due to
shuttle movement, etc.).
(7) The motor brake is not released.
2. Electric factors:
(1) Motor power line U, V, and W phases are disconnected. (No disconnection check is
performed.)
(2) Defect in the power block.
(3) Defect in the servo board.
(4) Defect in the MC unit.
(5) Disconnection between the servo board (X503, X504, X505) and MC unit (X304).
(6) Disconnection, etc. in the PN power supply wiring between the MC unit (X352, X353) and
servo amp. unit.
(7) Defect in the motor.
3. A sudden change motion occurred.
Countermeasure:
1. When the robot arm interfered with something, move it away from the interference in teach
mode. Then, check for defects in the drive parts, reducers, etc., and for positioning deviation
caused by arm deformation.
2. When parts (reducers, etc.) are damaged, check and replace them if necessary.
3. If the payload or the motion pattern causes the error, modify them.
4. If an electrical factor is causing the error, check the harness, servo amp. unit, MC unit, motor,
etc., and replace them if necessary.
5. If there are sudden changes in robot motion, modify the teach data.

Content:
The command value arrived at the destination but the current value does not arrive at the accuracy
setting range after a certain period of time elapsed This is detected by the AS software.
Main cause:
1. Mechanical factors:
(1) The axis load has become too large due to defective reducer, bearing, etc.
(2) The backlash is too small in the gear reduction part.
(3) Robot arm made contact with the jig, etc., or the cables, etc. are caught by the robot arm.
(4) The motor brake is not released.
2. Electric factors:
(1) Motor power line U, V, and W phases are disconnected. (No disconnection check is

(2) Defect in the power block.
(3) Defect in the servo board.
(4) Defect in the MC unit.
(5) Disconnection between the servo board (X503, X504, X505) and MC unit (X304).
(6) Disconnection, etc. in the PN power supply wiring between the MC unit (X352, X353) and
servo amp. unit.
(7) Defect in the encoder or disconnection of the encoder.
3. Defect in the teach data:
During linear interpolation motion, after being calculated to maintain the orientation of the tool on
the XYZ coordinates system, the command values are usually converted into joint command
values and then used for operating. However, this error might occur when the angle of the wrist
axis between the start and the end steps differs largely (such as opposite direction for JT6, etc.)
even if the tool orientation taught at the start and end points of robot motion are the same in OAT
values of the orientation.
Countermeasure:
1. In the case of mechanical failures, replace the reducers, etc. or adjust the backlash, etc.
2. In the case of electric failures, replace the harness, servo amp. unit, MC unit, encoder etc.
and replace them if necessary.
3. Modify the teach data if the error occurs in a specific program step.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ON REPLACEMENT
This section describes the precautions to be taken when replacing parts due to trouble, etc.
This information is presented here for use as general precautions. In addition to these,
adhere the safety measures required for each replacement procedure.
!
CAUTION
Parts replacement duties are limited to personnel who have
completed special training and education for the installed
robot or for an equivalent model.
1. Read and understand thoroughly all manuals, specifications and related documents
provided by Kawasaki before operation.
2. Before entering the safety fence (safeguarded space), make sure all necessary safety
measures are prepared and functioning well.
3. Before starting replacement work, shut OFF controller power up to the external power
switch. Display signs indicating clearly “POWER CUT-OFF IN PROGRESS” or
“REPLACEMENT IN PROGRESS”, and lock out/tag out the external power switch to
prevent personnel from accidentally turning ON the power.
4. Before starting replacement work, secure enough space around the robot so there is no
danger of interference with peripheral systems. Shut down the peripheral systems
completely so they will not make any sudden motion.
5. Disable automatic operation functions when entering the safety fence. If the robot
makes any abnormal motion, press EMERGENCY STOP switch immediately, and
evacuate on a planned path of retreat.
6. In addition to the EMERGENCY STOP switch operated by the technician, install another
E-STOP switch for the supervisor outside the safety fence, in a place where the robot’s
entire motion range can be monitored and the switch is accessible and easy for the
supervisor to press. If the robot moves abnormally during observation of the
replacement, press the E-STOP switch immediately. After an E-Stop, reset and restart
robot operations from outside the fence. Moreover, monitoring duties are limited to
personnel who are trained and qualified.

4. Procedures for Replacement
7. Use only Kawasaki approved parts during replacement.
8. When replacing printed boards, do not fail to turn OFF controller power. To replace
servo amplifier, MC unit, or AVR, wait at least three minutes after controller power OFF
before disconnecting connectors. Then confirm that output voltage from the DC power
supply and the P-N voltage are 0 V.
9. During operation, both technician and supervisor must always watch out for abnormal
motion and possible pinch points in and around the robot.
10. Semiconductors are often used in printed boards. Note that these semiconductors are
sensitive to static electricity, be sure to discharge any electrostatic on the body before
handling the printed boards.
11. Directly touching the parts containing semiconductors may cause electrostatic discharge
damage. When handling printed boards, do not touch the semiconductors directly but
hold the periphery of the printed boards. If parts must be touched directly, confirm that
electrostatic on the body has been discharged.
12. Putting printed boards directly onto the controller, etc. may cause electrostatic discharge
damage. Be sure to put them on an electrostatic-proof mat board or sheet, or enclose
printed boards in an electrostatic-proof bag.
13. Avoid removing printed boards at controller power ON, or turning the controller power
ON without any printed boards mounted.
14. Take a record of all data set currently on controller, printed boards, etc. so the system can
be restored to its normal operating condition.
15. To prevent position deviation of the robot, take a record of the robot’s pose before
starting the replacement procedure.
16. Be sure to connect connectors and cables correctly. When using connectors equipped
with locks, do not fail to lock after insertion. Do not touch connector pins.
17. Immediately after robot motion stop, the heat sink, the regenerative resistor, etc. may be
very hot. Do not touch the servo amplifier unit directly, there is a danger of burn.
