1.2.1 Warning
WARNING
- Be safely dressed when handling a motor.
Wear safety shoes or gloves when handling a motor as you may
get hurt on any edge or protrusion on it or electric shocks.
- Use a crane or lift to move a motor from one place to another.
A motor is heavy. If you lift the motor by hand, you may get a
backache, or you may be seriously injured when you drop the
motor. A suitable crane or lift must be used to move the motor.
(For the weight of motors, refer to their respective specification
manuals.)
When moving a motor using a crane or lift, use a hanging bolt if
the motor has a corresponding tapped hole, or textile rope if it has
no tapped hole.
If a motor is attached with a machine or any other heavy stuff, do
not use a hanging bolt to move the motor as the hanging bolt
and/or motor may get broken.
- Before starting to connect a motor to electric wires, make
sure they are isolated from an electric power source.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you
may get electric shocks.
- Be sure to secure power wires.
If operation is performed with a terminal loose, the terminal block
may become abnormally hot, possibly causing a fire. Also, the
terminal may become disconnected, causing a ground fault or
short-circuit, and possibly giving you electric shocks. See the
section in this manual that gives the tightening torque for
attaching power wires and short-bars to the terminal block.
- Be sure to ground a motor frame.
To avoid electric shocks, be sure to connect the grounding
terminal in the terminal box to the grounding terminal of the
machine.
- Do not ground a motor power wire terminal or short-circuit it
to another power wire terminal.
A failure to observe this caution may cause electric shocks or a
burned wiring.
(*) Some motors require a special connection such as a winding
changeover. Refer to their respective motor specification
manuals for details.
s-3
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
WARNING
-Do not supply the power to the motor while any terminal is
exposed.
A failure to observe this caution is very dangerous because you
may get electric shocks if your body or any conductive stuff
touches an exposed terminal.
- Do not bring any dangerous stuff near a motor.
Motors are connected to a power line, and may get hot. If a
flammable is placed near a motor, it may be ignited, catch fire, or
explode.
-Do not get close to a rotary section of a motor when it is
rotating.
You may get your clothes or fingers caught in a rotary section, and
may be injured. Before starting a motor, ensure that there is no
stuff that can fly away (such as a key) on the motor.
- Do not touch a motor with a wet hand.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you
may get electric shocks.
-Before touching a motor, shut off the power to it.
Even if a motor is not rotating, there may be a voltage across the
terminals of the motor.
Especially before touching a power supply connection, take
sufficient precautions.
Otherwise you may get electric shocks.
-Do not touch any terminal of a motor for a while (at least 5
minutes) after the power to the motor is shut off.
High voltage remains across power line terminals of a motor for a
while after the power to the motor is shut off. So, do not touch any
terminal or connect it to any other equipment. Otherwise, you may
get electric shocks or the motor and/or equipment may get
damaged.
-To drive a motor, use a specified amplifier and parameters.
Driving a motor with other than the specified combinations of an
amplifier and parameters may cause the motor to perform an
unexpected operation; for example, the motor may get out of
control, or produce excessively high torque. This may result in the
motor or machine being damaged. Also, an object such as a
workpiece or tool may fly off due to excessive rotation, possibly
causing injury.
s-4
B-65285EN/03SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
-Do not touch a regenerative discharge unit for a while (at
least 30 minutes) after the power to the motor is shut off.
A regenerative discharge unit may get hot when the motor is
running.
Do not touch the regenerative discharge unit before it gets cool
enough. Otherwise, you may get burned.
-Do not touch a motor when it is running or immediately after
it stops.
A motor may get hot when it is running. Do not touch the motor
before it gets cool enough. Otherwise, you may get burned.
-Ensure that motors and related components are mounted
securely.
If a motor or its component slips out of place or comes off when
the motor is running, it is very dangerous.
-Be careful not get your hair or cloths caught in a fan.
Be careful especially for a fan used to generate an inward air flow.
Be careful also for a fan even when the motor is stopped, because
it continues to rotate while the amplifier is turned on.
-When designing and assembling a machine tool, make it
compliant with EN60204-1.
To ensure the safety of the machine tool and satisfy European
standards, when designing and assembling a machine tool, make it
compliant with EN60204-1. For details of the machine tool, refer
to its specification manual.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
1.2.2 Caution
CAUTION
-FANUC motors are designed for use with machines. Do not
use them for any other purpose.
If a FANUC motor is used for an unintended purpose, it may
cause an unexpected symptom or trouble. If you want to use a
motor for an unintended purpose, previously consult with
FANUC.
-Ensure that a base or frame on which a motor is mounted is
strong enough.
Motors are heavy. If a base or frame on which a motor is mounted
is not strong enough, it is impossible to achieve the required
precision.
-Be sure to connect motor cables correctly.
An incorrect connection of a cable cause abnormal heat
generation, equipment malfunction, or failure. Always use a cable
with an appropriate current carrying capacity (or thickness). For
how to connect cables to motors, refer to their respective
specification manuals.
-Ensure that motors are cooled if they are those that require
forcible cooling.
If a motor that requires forcible cooling is not cooled normally, it
may cause a failure or trouble. For a fan-cooled motor, ensure that
it is not clogged or blocked with dust and dirt. For a liquid-cooled
motor, ensure that the amount of the liquid is appropriate and that
the liquid piping is not clogged.
For both types, perform regular cleaning and inspection.
-When attaching a component having inertia, such as a pulley,
to a motor, ensure that any imbalance between the motor and
component is minimized.
If there is a large imbalance, the motor may vibrates abnormally,
resulting in the motor being broken.
-Be sure to attach a key to a motor with a keyed shaft.
If a motor with a keyed shaft runs with no key attached, it may
impair torque transmission or cause imbalance, resulting in the
motor being broken.
s-6
B-65285EN/03SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.2.3 Note
NOTE
-Do not step or sit on a motor.
If you step or sit on a motor, it may get deformed or broken. Do
not put a motor on another unless they are in packages.
-When storing a motor, put it in a dry (non-condensing) place
at room temperature (0 to 40°°°°C).
If a motor is stored in a humid or hot place, its components may
get damaged or deteriorated. In addition, keep a motor in such a
position that its shaft is held horizontal and its terminal box is at
the top.
-Do not remove a nameplate from a motor.
If a nameplate comes off, be careful not to lose it. If the nameplate
is lost, the motor becomes unidentifiable, resulting in
maintenance becoming impossible.
For a nameplate for a built-in spindle motor, keep the nameplate
with the spindle.
-Do not apply shocks to a motor or cause scratches to it.
If a motor is subjected to shocks or is scratched, its components
may be adversely affected, resulting in normal operation being
impaired. Be very careful when handling plastic portions, sensors,
and windings, because they are very liable to break. Especially,
avoid lifting a motor by pulling its plastic portion, winding, or
power cable.
-Do not conduct dielectric strength or insulation test for a
sensor.
Such a test can damage elements in the sensor.
-When testing the winding or insulation resistance of a motor,
satisfy the conditions stipulated in IEC60034.
Testing a motor under a condition severer than those specified in
IEC34 may damage the motor.
-Do not disassemble a motor.
Disassembling a motor may cause a failure or trouble in it.
If disassembly is in need because of maintenance or repair, please
contact a service representative of FANUC.
-Do not modify a motor.
Do not modify a motor unless directed by FANUC. Modifying a
motor may cause a failure or trouble in it.
s-7
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
NOTE
-Use a motor under an appropriate environmental condition.
Using a motor in an adverse environment may cause a failure or
trouble in it.
Refer to their respective specification manuals for details of the
operating and environmental conditions for motors.
-Do not apply a commercial power source voltage directly to a
motor.
Applying a commercial power source voltage directly to a motor
may result in its windings being burned. Be sure to use a specified
amplifier for supplying voltage to the motor.
-For a motor with a terminal box, make a conduit hole for the
terminal box in a specified position.
When making a conduit hole, be careful not to break or damage
unspecified portions.
Refer to an applicable specification manual.
-Before using a motor, measure its winding and insulation
resistances, and make sure they are normal.
Especially for a motor that has been stored for a prolonged period
of time, conduct these checks. A motor may deteriorate depending
on the condition under which it is stored or the time during which
it is stored. For the winding resistances of motors, refer to their
respective specification manuals, or ask FANUC. For insulation
resistances, see the following table.
-To use a motor as long as possible, perform periodic
maintenance and inspection for it, and check its winding and
insulation resistances.
Note that extremely severe inspections (such as dielectric strength
tests) of a motor may damage its windings. For the winding
resistances of motors, refer to their respective specification
manuals, or ask FANUC. For insulation resistances, see the
following table.
MOTOR INSULATION RESISTANCE MEASUREMENT
Measure an insulation resistance between each winding and
motor frame using an insulation resistance meter (500 VDC).
Judge the measurements according to the following table.

1.3.1 Warnings and Cautions Relating to Mounting
1.3.1.1 Warning
WARNING
-Check the specification code of the amplifier.
Check that the delivered amplifier is as originally ordered.
-Mount a ground fault interrupter.
To guard against fire and electric shock, fit the factory power
supply or machine with a ground fault interrupter (designed for
use with an inverter).
-Securely ground the amplifier.
Securely connect the ground terminal and metal frame of the
amplifier and motor to a common ground plate of the power
magnetics cabinet.
-Be aware of the weight of the amplifier and other
components.
Control motor amplifiers and AC reactors are heavy. When
transporting them or mounting them in the cabinet, therefore, be
careful not to injured yourself or damage the equipment. Be
particularly carefull not to jam your fingers between the cabinet
and amplifier.
-Never ground or short-circuit either the power supply lines or
power lines.
Protect the lines from any stress such as bending. Handle the ends
appropriately.
-Ensure that the power supply lines, power lines, and signal
lines are securely connected.
A loose screw, loose connection, or the like will cause a motor
malfunction or overheating, or a ground fault.
Be extremely careful with power supply lines, motor power lines,
and DC link connections through which a large amount of current
passes, because a loose screw (or poor contact in a connector or
poor connection between a connector terminal and a cable) may
cause a fire.
-Insulate all exposed parts that are charged.
s-9
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
WARNING
-Never touch the regenerative discharge resistor or radiator
directly.
The surface of the radiator and regenerative discharge unit
become extremely hot. Never touch them directly. An appropriate
structure should also be considered.
-Close the amplifier cover after completing the wiring.
Leaving the cover open presents a danger of electric shock.
-Do not disassemble the amplifier.
-Ensure that the cables used for the power supply lines and
power lines are of the appropriate diameter and temperature
ratings.
-Do not apply an excessively large force to plastic parts.
If a plastic section breaks, it may cause internal damage, thus
interfering with normal operation. The edge of a broken section is
likely to be sharp and, therefore, presents a risk of injury.

-Do not block the air inlet to the radiator.
A deposit of coolant, oil mist, or chips on the air inlet will result in
a reduction in the cooling efficiency. In some cases, the required
efficiency cannot be achieved. The deposit may also lead to a
reduction in the useful life of the semiconductors. Especially,
when outside air is drawn in, mount filters on both the air inlet and
outlet. These filters must be replaced regularly.
So, an easy-to-replace type of filter should be used.
-Before connecting the power supply wiring, check the supply
voltage.
Check that the supply voltage is within the range specified in this
manual, then connect the power supply lines.
-Ensure that the combination of motor and amplifier is
appropriate.
-Ensure that valid parameters are specified.
Specifying an invalid parameter for the combination of motor and
amplifier may not only prevent normal operation of the motor but
also result in damage to the amplifier.
-Ensure that the amplifier and peripheral equipment are
securely connected.
Check that the magnetic contactor, circuit breaker, and other
devices mounted outside the amplifier are securely connected to
each other and that those devices are securely connected to the
amplifier.
s-11
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
CAUTION
-Check that the amplifier is securely mounted in the power
magnetics cabinet.
If any clearance is left between the power magnetics cabinet and
the surface on which the amplifier is mounted, dust entering the
gap may build up and prevent the normal operation of the
amplifier.
-Apply appropriate countermeasures against noise.
Adequate countermeasures against noise are required to maintain
normal operation of the amplifier. For example, signal lines must
be routed away from power supply lines and power lines.

-Before operating the motor for the first time, mount and
adjust the position and speed sensors.
Following the instructions given in the maintenance manual,
adjust the position and speed sensors for the spindle so that an
appropriate waveform is obtained.
If the sensors are not properly adjusted, the motor may not rotate
normally or the spindle may fail to stop as desired.
-If the motor makes any abnormal noise or vibration while
operating, stop it immediately.
Note that if operation is continued in spite of there being some
abnormal noise or vibration, the amplifier may be damaged. Take
appropriate corrective action, then resume operation.
-Observe the ambient temperature and output rating
requirements.
The continuous output rating or continuous operation period of
some amplifiers may fall as the ambient temperature increases. If
the amplifier is used continuously with an excessive load applied,
the amplifier may be damaged.
-Unless otherwise specified, do not insert or remove any
connector while the power is turned on. Otherwise, the

1.3.3 Warnings and Cautions Relating to Maintenance
1.3.3.1 Warning
WARNING
-Read the maintenance manual carefully and ensure that you
are totally familiar with its contents.
The maintenance manual describes daily maintenance and the
procedures to be followed in the event of an alarm being issued.
The operator must be familiar with these descriptions.
-Notes on replacing a fuse or PC board
1)Before starting the replacement work, ensure that the circuit
breaker protecting the power magnetics cabinet is open.
2)Check that the red LED that indicates that charging is in
progress is not lit.
The position of the charging LED on each model of amplifier
is given in this manual. While the LED is lit, hazardous
voltages are present inside the unit, and thus there is a danger
of electric shock.
3)Some PC board components become extremely hot. Be
careful not to touch these components.
4)Ensure that a fuse having an appropriate rating is used.
5)Check the specification code of a PC board to be replaced. If
a modification drawing number is indicated, contact FANUC
before replacing the PC board.
Also, before and after replacing a PC board, check its pin
settings.
6)After replacing the fuse, ensure that the screws are firmly
tightened. For a socket-type fuse, ensure that the fuse is

the machine may be damaged.
s-17
SAFETY PRECAUTIONSB-65285EN/03
WARNING
-Notes on replacing the battery of the absolute pulse coder
Replace the battery only while the power is on. If the battery is
replaced while the power is turned off, the stored absolute
positioning data will be lost. Some series servo amplifier modules
have batteries in their servo amplifiers. To replace the battery of
any of those models, observe the following procedure: Open the
door of the power magnetics cabinet; Leave the control power of
the power supply module on; Place the machine in the emergency
stop state so that the power being input to the amplifier is shut off;
Then, replace the battery. Replacement work should be done only
by a person who is trained in the related maintenance and safety
requirements. The power magnetics cabinet in which the servo
amplifier is mounted has a high-voltage section. This section
presents a severe risk of electric shock.
-Check the number of any alarm.
If the machine stops upon an alarm being issued, check the alarm
number. Some alarms indicate that a component must be replaced.
If the power is reconnected without first replacing the failed
component, another component may be damaged, making it
difficult to locate the original cause of the alarm.
-Before resetting an alarm, ensure that the original cause of
the alarm has been removed.
-Contact FANUC whenever a question relating to
maintenance arises.
-Notes on removing the amplifier
Before removing the amplifier, first ensure that the power is shut
off. Be careful not to jam your fingers between the power
magnetics cabinet and amplifier.
s-18
B-65285EN/03SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.3.3.2 Caution
CAUTION
-Ensure that all required components are mounted.
When replacing a component or PC board, check that all
components, including the snubber capacitor, are correctly
mounted. If the snubber capacitor is not mounted, for example, the
IPM will be damaged.
-Tighten all screws firmly.
-Check the specification code of the fuse, PC board, and other
components.
When replacing a fuse or PC board, first check the specification
code of the fuse or PC board, then mount it in the correct position.
The machine will not operate normally if a fuse or PC board
having other than the correct specification code is mounted, or if a
fuse or PC board is mounted in the wrong position.
-Mount the correct cover.
The cover on the front of the amplifier carries a label indicating a
specification code. When mounting a previously removed front
cover, take care to mount it on the unit from which it was
removed.
-Notes on cleaning the heat sink and fan
1)A dirty heat sink or fan results in reduced semiconductor
cooling efficiency, which degrades reliability. Periodic
cleaning is necessary.
2)Using compressed air for cleaning scatters the dust. A
deposit of conductive dust on the amplifier or peripheral
equipment will result in a failure.
3)To clean the heat sink, do so only after turning the power off
and ensuring that the heat sink has cooled to room
temperature. The heat sink becomes extremely hot, such that
touching it during operation or immediately after power-off
is likely to cause a burn. Be extremely careful when touching
the heat sink.

4.2.2 VRDY-OFF Alarm Indicated on the CNC Screen
When the VRDY-OFF alarm is indicated on the CNC, check the items
listed below. In addition, VRDY-OFF can occur also for reasons other
than listed below. If the following items turn out to have not caused
VRDY-OFF, check diagnosis information No. 358 (V ready-off
information) on the diagnosis screen and report it to FANUC.
(1) Communication interface between amplifier and module
Is the cable for the communication interface (CXA2A/B) between
the amplifier and module connected correctly?
(2) Emergency stop signal (ESP)
Has the emergency stop signal (connector: CX4) applied to the
PSM been released? Alternatively, is the signal connected
correctly?
(3) MCON signal
Hasn't setting up the axis detach function disabled the
transmission of the ready command signal MCON from the CNC
to the SVM?
(4) SVM control printed-circuit board
The SVM control printed-circuit board may be poorly installed or
faulty. Be sure to push the faceplate as far as it will go. If the
problem persist, replace the control printed-circuit board.
On the Series 16i/18i/21i/0i/PMi, checking diagnosis information
(DGN) No. 358 makes it possible to analyze the cause of the VRDYOFF alarm.

-If a low battery voltage or a battery voltage of 0 V is indicated by
an APC (absolute Pulsecoder) alarm, replace the battery.
If a battery voltage of 0 V is indicated, you need to make a zero
point return.
-The absolute Pulsecoder of the αis/αi series servo motor is
incorporated with a backup capacitor as standard. This backup
capacitor enables an absolute position detection to be continued
for about 10 minutes. Therefore, no zero point return need be
performed if the time during which servo amplifier power is kept
off for battery replacement is within 10 minutes.
On the contrary, the absolute Pulsecoder of the standard α series
servo motor is not incorporated with a backup capacitor. Be
careful when replacing the battery for this Pulsecoder. See
[Caution No. 1 for battery replacement] at the end of this section
for details.
-The service life of the batteries is about two years if they are used
in a six-axis configuration with αis/αi series servo motors and one
year if they are used in a six-axis configuration with α series servo
motors.
FANUC recommends that you replace the batteries periodically
according to the battery service life.
-The battery unit consists of four R20 alkaline batteries.
Commercial batteries can be used in the battery unit. The optional
battery offered by FANUC is A06B-6050-K061.

WARNING
1When using the built-in batteries (A06B-6073-
K001), do not connect them to the BATL (B3) of
connector CXA2A/CXA2B.
The output voltages from different SVM batteries
may be short-circuited, resulting in the batteries
becoming very hot.
2Do not connect more than one battery to the same
BATL (B3) line. If the output voltage is different
between the batteries, they may be short-circuited,
resulting in the batteries becoming very hot.
3Install the battery with correct polarity. If the battery
is installed with incorrect polarity, it may overheat,
blow out, or catch fire.
[Installation procedure for the battery]
(1) Remove the battery cover from the SVM.
(2) Install the battery in the SVM as shown in the figure below.
(3) Install the battery cover.
(4) Attach the battery connector to CX5X of the SVM.

5.PERIODIC MAINTENANCE OF SERVO AMPLIFIER START-UP PROCEDURE B-65285EN/03
[Caution No. 1 for battery replacement]
The Pulsecoder for the α series servo motor is not incorporated with a
backup capacitor as standard. To keep the absolute position
information in the absolute Pulsecoder, you need to keep the control
power turned on during battery replacement. Follow the procedure
explained below.
[Replacing procedure for the battery]
1.Make sure that the power to the SVM is on (the 7-segment LED
on the front of the SVM is on).
2.Make sure that the emergency stop button of the system has been
pressed.
3.Make sure that the motor is not activated.
4.Make sure that the DC link charge LED of the SVM is off.
5.Remove the old battery, and install a new battery.
6.This completes the replacement. You can turn off the power to the
system.
WARNING
1When replacing the battery, be careful not to touch
bare metal parts in the panel. In particular, be
careful not to touch any high-voltage circuits due to
the electric shock hazard.
2Before replacing the battery, check that the DC link
charge confirmation LED on the front of the servo
amplifier is off. Neglecting this check creates an
electric shock hazard.
3Install the battery with correct polarity. If the battery
is installed with incorrect polarity, it may overheat,
blow out, or catch fire.
4Avoid a short-circuit between the +6 V and 0 V lines
of a battery or cable. A short-circuit may lead to a
hot battery, an explosion, or fire.
