Help Us Help You

• If you're emailing us, write out the observed behavior (i you're calling, be prepared to give this information verbally). What, exactly, are you seeing? Please include:
  
  • Affected axes numbers and names
  • Affected node numbers and names
  • Query the actual error code
  • List any affected I/O
• The next thing to report is the expected behavior. In other words, what do you think the system should do?
• What are the exact steps required to produce the issue? Could there be any environmental factors at play?
• Provide a detailed list of the things you tried to fix the issue.
• List any workarounds you found.
• If the issue is with an iQ or Navigator system, try to include a support bundle or issue collect. Barring that, include a full description of errors and alarms, including fault codes. For more, see How to Submit an iQ Support Bundle or Creating Issues in the Issue Collect Tool (ICT).
• Use screenshots and video generously!
