In Siemens G120 drives, a "reset" fault generally indicates that the drive has encountered an error or fault condition that requires a reset to clear. Here's how you can perform a reset and address this issue:

  1. Reset the Drive: Follow the procedure outlined in the drive's user manual or technical documentation to perform a reset. Typically, this involves powering off the drive, waiting for a few moments, and then powering it back on. Make sure to follow proper lockout/tagout procedures and ensure that the system is de-energized before performing any maintenance.

  2. Check for External Faults: Before resetting the drive, ensure that there are no external factors causing the fault condition. Check for issues such as power supply problems, motor or load issues, overheating, or wiring faults. Address any external faults before resetting the drive.

  3. Inspect Drive Indicators: After resetting the drive, monitor the status indicators on the drive's control panel or display interface. Note any error codes or fault indicators that appear. This can provide insight into the cause of the fault condition.

  4. Review Fault History: Some Siemens drives store fault history, which can be accessed through the drive's control interface or diagnostic tools. Review the fault history to identify recurring issues or patterns that may be contributing to the fault condition.

  5. Perform Diagnostic Tests: Use diagnostic tools or features available in the drive to perform tests and diagnostics. This can help identify underlying issues with the drive, motor, or connected equipment that may be causing the fault condition.

  6. Consult Technical Documentation: Refer to the drive's user manual, technical documentation, or contact Siemens technical support for specific guidance on troubleshooting and resolving reset faults. Siemens technical support can provide assistance in diagnosing the fault and recommending appropriate solutions.

By following these steps and addressing the potential causes, you can troubleshoot and resolve reset faults in your Siemens G120 drive.
