Rexroth IndraDrive HCS Error Code F7012

Rexroth PLC & VFD Critical Safety

Model: IndraDrive HCS | Code: F7012

Applicable Systems

EFC FEX FEI HNC

Symptoms

Safe negative position limit exceeded. The motor position has exceeded the safety-configured negative end-of-travel limit.

Step 1: Check the safe negative position limit parameter
Parameter value matches the machine safety assessment
Step 2: Verify position feedback accuracy
Position reading matches actual mechanical position
Step 3: Inspect negative direction mechanical end-stop
End-stop is intact and functional
Step 4: If motor genuinely overtraveled, investigate controller and brake
Address controller tuning or brake issues

1) Verify position feedback. 2) Check safe negative limit. 3) Inspect mechanical end-stop. 4) Reset requires safety acknowledgment.

Q: Is F7012 the same as F7011 but for the opposite direction?
Yes. F7011 is positive limit, F7012 is negative limit. Both are safety-critical position monitoring faults.
Q: What if both F7011 and F7012 trigger simultaneously?
This indicates a position feedback error, as the motor cannot be beyond both limits simultaneously. Check the encoder and position reference.
