APPENDIX D — VFD INFORMATION (cont)

To reset a fault indicated by a flashing red LED, turn off the

power for 5 minutes. To reset a fault indicated by a red LED

(not flashing), press RESET from the control panel or turn off

the power for 5 minutes. Depending on the value of parameter

1604 (FAULT RESET SELECT), digital input or serial com-

munication could also be used to reset the drive.When the fault

has been corrected, the motor can be started.
HISTORY — For reference, the last three fault codes are

stored into parameters 0401, 0412, 0413. For the most recent

fault (identified by parameter 0401), the drive stores additional

data (in parameters 0402 through 0411) to aid in troubleshoot-

ing a problem. For example, a parameter 0404 stores the motor

speed at the time of the fault. To clear the fault history (all of

Group 04, Fault History parameters), follow these steps:

1. In the control panel, Parameters mode, select parameter

0401.

2. Press EDIT.
3. Press the UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously.
4. Press SAVE.

CORRECTING ALARMS — To correct alarms, first deter-

mine if the Alarm requires any corrective action (action is not

always required). Use Table D below to find and address the

root cause of the problem.

Table D — Alarm Codes

*This alarm is not indicated by a relay output, even when the relay output is configured to indicate alarm conditions (parameter 1401 RELAY OUT-

PUT = 5 (ALARM) or 16 (FLT/ALARM).

DIR LOCK

The change in direction being attempted is not allowed. Do not attempt to change the direction of motor rota-
tion, or Change parameter 1003 DIRECTION to allow direction change (if reverse operation is safe).

2005

I/O COMM

Field bus communication has timed out. Check fault setup (3018 COMM FAULT FUNC and 3019 COMM
FAULT TIME). Check communication settings (Group 51 or 53 as appropriate). Check for poor connections
and/or noise on line.

2006

AI1 LOSS

Analog input 1 is lost, or value is less than the minimum setting. Check input source and connections. Check
the parameter that sets the minimum (3021) and the parameter that sets the Alarm/Fault operation (3001).

2007

AI2 LOSS

Analog input 2 is lost, or value is less than the minimum setting. Check input source and connections. Check
parameter that sets the minimum (3022) and the parameter that sets the Alarm/Fault operation (3001).

2008

PANEL LOSS

Panel communication is lost and either the VFD is in local control mode (the control panel displays HAND), or
the VFD is in remote control mode (AUTO) and is parameterized to accept start/stop, direction or reference
from the control panel. To correct, check the communication lines and connections, Parameter 3002 PANEL
LOSS, and parameters in groups 10 COMMAND INPUTS and 11 REFERENCE SELECT (if drive operation
is REM).

2010

MOT OVERTEMP

Motor is hot, based on either the VFD estimate or on temperature feedback. This alarm warns that a Motor
Overload fault trip may be near. Check for overloaded motor. Adjust the parameters used for the estimate
(3005 through 3009). Check the temperature sensors and Group 35 parameters.

2011

UNDERLOAD

Motor load is lower than expected. This alarm warns that a Motor Underload fault trip may be near. Check
that the motor and drive ratings match (motor is NOT undersized for the drive). Check the settings on param-
eters 3013 to 3015.

2012

MOTOR STALL

Motor is operating in the stall region. This alarm warns that a Motor Stall fault trip may be near.

2013*

AUTORESET

This alarm warns that the drive is about to perform an automatic fault reset, which may start the motor. To
control automatic reset, use parameter group 31 (AUTOMATIC RESET).

2014*

AUTOCHANGE

This alarm warns that the PFA autochange function is active. To control PFA, use parameter group 81 (PFA)
and the Pump Alternation macro.

2015

PFA INTERLOCK

This alarm warns that the PFA interlocks are active, which means that the drive cannot start any motor (when
Autochange is used), or a speed regulated motor (when Autochange is not used).

2016

Reserved

2017*

OFF BUTTON

This alarm indicates that the OFF button has been pressed.

2018*

PID SLEEP

This alarm warns that the PID sleep function is active, which means that the motor could
accelerate when the PID sleep function ends. To control PID sleep, use parameters
4022 through 4026 or 4122 through 4126.

2019

ID RUN

The VFD is performing an ID run.

2020

OVERRIDE

Override mode is activated.

2021

START ENABLE 1

MISSING

This alarm warns that the Start Enable 1 signal is missing. To control Start Enable 1 function, use parameter
1608. To correct, check the digital input configuration and the communication settings.

2022

START ENABLE 2

MISSING

This alarm warns that the Start Enable 2 signal is missing. To control Start Enable 2 function, use parameter
1609. To correct, check the digital input configuration and the communication settings.

2023

EMERGENCY STOP

Emergency stop is activated.
