SRVO-134: DCLVAL / DCLVAL (PS) alarm (DC link voltage low)

The DC bus voltage feeding the 6-axis amplifier is abnormally LOW - the inverse of SRVO-044's overvoltage.

What it means

The DC bus voltage feeding the 6-axis amplifier is abnormally LOW - the inverse of SRVO-044's overvoltage. The interesting causes are upstream: momentary power dips, undersized supply during simultaneous acceleration, and a documented reset-timing quirk on auxiliary-axis systems.

Common causes

Ranked by what technicians most often find, most likely first.

  1. Momentary power interruption - plant-side blips.
  2. Input voltage below rating or wrong transformer tap setting.
  3. Robot and auxiliary axis accelerating simultaneously, sagging the bus.
  4. Aux-axis timing quirk: a RESET input arriving simultaneously with an E-stop-type signal (SVOFF, fence open).
  5. Hardware: E-stop unit, 6-axis amplifier, or αiPS.

How to fix it

  1. Check for plant power events at the alarm time - an instantaneous dropout causes exactly this.
  2. Verify input voltage against rating and confirm the transformer setting.
  3. On aux-axis systems, stagger the program so robot and aux axis don't accelerate together.
  4. Also on aux-axis systems: don't input RESET within 2 seconds of an emergency-stop-type signal - a documented cause.
  5. Then hardware: E-stop unit, amplifier, power supply. Power-cycle to clear.
