This section describes the alarm and fault displays, explanations for fault conditions and corrective
actions to be taken if the Drive malfunctions.

A failure in the Drive can fall into one of two categories, Alarm or Fault.

A blinking “Alarm” indication is a warning that a Drive trouble condition will soon occur, or that a
programming error has been made. The Drive will continue to operate during an “Alarm” indication.

A blinking “Minor Fault” indication is displayed during less serious faults, or when a problem exists in
the external circuitry. The Drive will continue to operate, and a “Minor Fault” contact will be closed if
a multi-function output is programmed for the condition.

A steady “Major Fault” indication is displayed when the Drive’s Fault relay has tripped. The motor
coasts to a stop, and a fault signal output is present at control circuit terminals 18-20.
