What it means
An axis lacks valid commutation data — typically after motor/drive replacement or measurement system loss. The axis cannot run until commutation is restored.
What to check
- Follow the manufacturer commutation procedure for the axis after motor/resolver work.
- If it appears without hardware work: suspect the measurement chain (SMB, battery, cabling).
