Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

5

The table herein lists the fault conditions that will cause the drive to shut down, as well as some
possible causes. Contact the factory for more information on troubleshooting faults.

Fault Messages

Fault Description

AF

High Temp. Fault: Ambient temperature is too high; Cooling fan has failed (if equipped).

CF

Control Fault: A blank EPM, or an EPM with corrupted data has been installed. Perform
a factory reset using Parameter 48 - PROGRAM SELECTION.

cF

Incompatibility Fault: An EPM with an incompatible parameter version has been in-
stalled. Either remove the EPM or perform a factory reset (Parameter 48) to change the
parameter version of the EPM to match the parameter version of the drive.

dF

Dynamic Braking Fault: The drive has sensed that the dynamic braking resistors are
overheating and shuts down to protect the resistors.

EF

External Fault: One of the TB-13 terminals is set as an External Fault input and that
terminal is open with respect to TB-11. Refer to Parameters 10, 11 and 12.

GF

Data Fault: User data and OEM defaults in the EPM are corrupted.

HF

High DC Bus Voltage Fault: Line voltage is too high; Deceleration rate is too fast; Over-
hauling load. For fast deceleration or overhauling loads, dynamic braking may be
required

JF

Remote Keypad Fault: The communication link between the drive and the optional Re-
mote Keypad has been lost. Check for proper wiring and/or noise.

LF

Low DC Bus Voltage Fault: Line voltage is too low.

OF

Output Transistor Fault: Phase to phase or phase to ground short circuit on the output;
Boost settings are too high; Acceleration rate is too fast; Failed output transistor.

PF

Current Overload Fault: VFD is undersized for the application; Mechanical problem
with the driven equipment.

UF

Start Fault: Start command was present when the drive was powered up. Must wait 2
seconds after power-up to apply Start command if START METHOD is set to NORMAL.

F1

EPM Fault: The EPM is missing or damaged.

FC,

F2 - F9,

Fo

Internal Faults: The control board has sensed a problem - consult factory.

To clear a fault, issue a STOP command on the terminal strip. The fault will only clear if the condition
that caused the fault has passed. For example, if the drive trips on a LOW DC BUS VOLTAGE FAULT (LF)
due to low input voltage, the fault cannot be cleared until the input voltage returns to a normal level.

If the drive is programmed to automatically restart after a fault (see Parameter 03), the drive will
attempt to restart three times after a fault (the drive will not restart after CF, cF, GF, FC, F1, F2-F9, or
Fo faults). If all three restart attempts are unsuccessful, the drive will trip into FAULT LOCKOUT (LC),
which requires a manual reset as described above.

NOTE

In the event of a "PF" (MOTOR OVERLOAD) fault there is a 3 minute delay before resetting is
possible. This is a requirement of UL508C. This delay is intended to allow time for the motor
to cool. If power is removed when the drive is in a "PF" state, when the power is restored the
"PF" fault will still be present and the delay will still be active even it power was removed for
longer than 3 minutes.
