More and more astronomical instruments have been installed in extreme environment such as Antarctica because of good seeing. However it’s not good for electromechanical system of astronomical telescope due to the harsh environment. This paper presents the study of the unanticipated states of direct drive system of extremely large telescope in extreme environment. The unanticipated states which are short of priori knowledge will degrade the

reliability of monitor system significantly and put the self-diagnosis system into trouble.
