Wait about 30 seconds, until the front display of the servo amplifier displays the cur

rent class (e.g. for 3 A). If the power supply voltage is switched on, too, a lea

ding P is displayed (e.g. for Power, 3 A).

If a fault code ( ) or a warning ( ) or a status message (./_ / E/S)

appears in the display, you will find the description on page 80 / 81. If there is fault,
