The Drum oscillation on MCE output devices document describes a set of circumstances that can cause drum oscillation when there is nothing wrong with the drum amplifier. Specifically, if a drum stop command is the first command issued after a reset or a safety loop break, the drum will oscillate. (The oscillation is worse when the drum stop command is immediately followed by a drum move command.) This problem exists in DRS firmware earlier than version 2.34. It is solved in DRS version 2.34, but at this time, no firmware releases yet contain this version. In the meantime, it is important to be aware that drum oscillation does not necessarily mean there is a problem of any kind with the output device’ hardware components. Find these documents under Drums on the Troubleshooting page.
