External Trip

When the terminal [EXT] is turned ON, the inverter enters the trip state, indicates error code
E12, and stops the output. This is a general purpose interrupt type feature, and the meaning of
the error depends on what you connect to the [EXT] terminal. Even if [EXT] is turned OFF, the
inverter remains in the trip state. You must reset the inverter or cycle power to clear the error,
returning the inverter to the Stop Mode.

In the graph below, the [EXT] input turns ON during normal Run Mode operation. The inverter
lets the motor free-run to a stop, and the alarm output turns ON immediately. When the
operator initiates a Reset command, the alarm and error are cleared. When the Reset is turned
OFF, the motor begins rotation since the Run command is already active.
