Event Fault/Alarm Text Type Fault Configuration Auto Description/Action(s)
No. Action Parameter Reset
0 No Entry
2 Auxiliary Input Resettable Fault Coast 157 [DI Aux Fault] Y An auxiliary input interlock is open. A condition within the application
is not allowing the drive to energize the motor and the digital input
that is assigned in P157 [DI Aux Fault] has forced this fault.
3 Power Loss Configurable 449 [Power Loss Actn] Y The DC bus voltage remained below the [Pwr Loss n Level] of nominal
for longer than the time programmed in [Pwr Loss n Time].
4 UnderVoltage Configurable 460 [UnderVltg Action] Y If the bus voltage indicated in P11 [DC Bus Volts] falls below the value
set in P461 [UnderVltg Level] an undervoltage condition exists.
5 OverVoltage Resettable Fault Coast Y The DC bus voltage exceeded the maximum value.
See P11 [DC Bus Volts].
7 Motor Overload Configurable 410 [Motor OL Actn] Y An internal electronic overload trip has occurred.
See P7 [Output Current], P26 [Motor NP Amps, P413 [Mtr OL Factor],
and/or P414 [Mtr OL Hertz].
8 Heatsink OvrTemp Resettable Fault Coast Y The heatsink temperature has exceeded 100 % of the drive
temperature.
Heatsink over temperature occurs between 115…120 °C. The exact
value is stored in drive firmware.
See P943 [Drive Temp Pct] and/or P944 [Drive Temp C].
9 Trnsistr OvrTemp Resettable Fault Coast Y The output transistors have exceeded the maximum operating
temperature.
See P941 [IGBT Temp Pct] and/or P942 [IGBT Temp C].
If using the drive on a chiller plate, P38 [PWM Frequency] must be set
to 2 kHz.
10 DynBrake OvrTemp Alarm 1 The dynamic brake resistor has exceeded its maximum operating
temperature.
Check settings of parameters P382 [DB Resistor Type] through P385
[DB ExtPulseWatts].
12 HW OverCurrent Resettable Fault Coast Y The drive output current has exceeded the hardware current limit.
Insulation Resistance (IR) test the wiring to motor.
13 Ground Fault Resettable Fault Coast Y A current path to earth ground greater than 25 % of drive rating has
occurred.
14 Ground Warning Configurable 466 [Ground Warn Actn] The ground current has exceeded the level set in P467 [Ground Warn
Lvl].
15 Load Loss Configurable 441 [Load Loss Action] The output torque current is below the value programmed in P442

Chapter 6 Troubleshooting

17 Input Phase Loss Configurable 462 [InPhase LossActn] The DC bus ripple has exceeded a preset level. Make these checks and
adjustments in this order.
• Check input impedance balance.
• Increase the setting of P463 [InPhase Loss Lvl] to make the drive
less sensitive.
• Tune the bus regulator or speed regulator to mitigate the effects of
dynamic cyclic loads on DC bus ripple.
• Disable the fault by setting P462 [InPhase LossActn] to 0 “Ignore”
and use an external phase loss detector such as a Bulletin 809S
relay.
18 Motor PTC Trip Configurable 250 [PTC Cfg] Motor PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) over temperature.
19 Task Overrun Alarm 1 System resource utilization is at or above 90 % of capacity. Review the
system resource allocation table on page 307.
20 TorqPrv Spd Band Resettable Fault Coast The difference between P2 [Commanded SpdRef] and P3 [Mtr Vel
Fdbk] has exceeded the level programmed in P1105 [Speed Dev
Band] for a time period greater than the time programmed in P1106
[SpdBand Intgrtr].
21 Output PhaseLoss Configurable 444 [OutPhaseLossActn] The current in one or more phases has been lost or remains below the
threshold set in P445 [Out PhaseLossLvl] for 1 second. Decreasing the
threshold makes the drive less sensitive to tripping. A deceased
threshold is necessary when the motor is smaller than the drive
rating.
If TorqProve™ is active, the current in one or more phases has been
lost or remains below a threshold for five msecs. The phases are
checked at start to be sure that torque is delivered to the load. If the
drive is faulting on start, increase P44 [Flux Up Time].
If TorqProve is active, and the brake is slipping, this fault occurs. When
TorqProve is used, before the signal to the brake is applied to release
it, the flux up time is used to check the three phases. The angle is
adjusted to be sure that current is flowing through all three phases. If
the motor moves during this test, the brake is not holding and a phase
loss can occur.
If TorqProve is active, and no brake is present, this fault occurs.
Check for an open output contactor.
ATTENTION: If a PM motor is used and motor

phase is lost, lower P445 [OutPhaseLossLvl]
to 0 if TorqProve is not used or the drive
output (motor) contacts are not used.
Otherwise, lower P445 [OutPhaseLossLvl]
until the drive is able to start and run without
faulting.
24 Decel Inhibit Configurable 409 [Dec Inhibit Actn] The drive is not following a commanded deceleration because it is
attempting to limit the bus voltage.
For high inertia loads, set P621 [Slip RPM at FLA] to 0 (V/Hz and SVC
modes only).
25 OverSpeed Limit Resettable Fault Coast Y The motor operating speed exceeds the limit set by the maximum
speed setting P524 [Overspeed Limit]. For forward motor rotation,
this limit is P520 [Max Fwd Speed] + P524 [Overspeed Limit]. For
reverse motor rotation, this limit is P521 [Max Rev Speed] - P524
[Overspeed Limit]. When flux vector control modes are selected in P35
[Motor Ctrl Mode], P131 [Active Vel Fdbk] determines the motor
operating speed. For all other non-flux vector control modes, P1
[Output Frequency] determines the motor operating speed.

functions.
162 Waking Alarm 1 The Wake timer is counting toward a value that starts the drive.
168 HeatSinkUnderTmp Resettable Fault Heatsink temperature sensor is reporting a value below -18.7 °C (-
1.66 °F) or the sensor feedback circuit is open.
See P943 [Drive Temp Pct] and/or P944 [Drive Temp C].
169 PWM Freq Reduced Alarm 1 The PWM Frequency has been reduced from the value set in P38
[PWM Frequency] due to excessive IGBT junction temperatures.
See also P420 [Drive OL Mode].
170 CurLimit Reduced Alarm 1 The current limit value has been reduced from the value set in
[Current Limit n] due to excessive IGBT junction temperatures or P940
[Drive OL Count] = 95 %.
See also P420 [Drive OL Mode].


171 Adj Vltg Ref Alarm 1 Invalid adjustable-voltage reference selection conflict.
175 Travel Lim Cflct Non-Reset Fault Current Travel limits are in conflict. Both the forward and reverse travel limits
Limit indicate that they are simultaneously active.
Stop If digital limits (hardware signals) are in use, ensure that the
following forward and reverse digital input pairs are not both off
simultaneously: fwd/rev decel travel limit digital inputs and fwd/rev
end stop travel limit digital inputs. The travel limit digital inputs are
meant to be connected to normally closed switch contacts, so the
digital input status reads an off (0 = False) bit status when the
machine is on limit and the switch contact opens. A possible cause for
this condition is loss of common power to both the forward and
reverse travel limit switches.
If software travel limits are in use, check the state of the fwd/rev
travel limit bits in P1101 [Trq Prove Setup]. These bits read an on (1 =
Enabled) bit status when the machine is on limit. Bit 2 “Decel Fwd”
and Bit 4 “Decel Rev” should not be on simultaneously. Similarly, Bit 3
“End Stop Fwd” and Bit 5 “End Stop Rev” should not be on
simultaneously.

10202 I2 Thermal Const Fault incorrect.
10302 I3 Thermal Const • Verify that the inverter is the correct rating for the drive.
• Compare the firmware revisions of the power layer interface and
control board for compatibility.
• If necessary, reflash the application firmware in control board.
10103 I1 HSFan Slow Alarm 1 The inverter heatsink fan is running below normal operating speed.
10203 I2 HSFan Slow • Verify the actual fan speed in [In HSFan Speed] (Port 10).
10303 I3 HSFan Slow • Check for debris in the fan. If necessary, clean the fan and housing.
• Check for noise at the fan, indicating motor bearing failure.
• Verify that the fan power and feedback connections are not loose or
disconnected.
• Replace the fan, if necessary.


10104 I1 Overcurr UPos Resettable Coast Y An instantaneous overcurrent (IOC) has occurred in the U, V, or W phase,
10204 I2 Overcurr UPos Fault positive or negative leg.
10304 I3 Overcurr UPos • Reduce the mechanical load.
• Check the motor and connections.
10105 I1 Overcurr UNeg • With motor disconnected, run the drive in open loop, in V/Hz mode
10205 I2 Overcurr UNeg and check for sufficient output phase-to-phase voltages. If an IOC
10305 I3 Overcurr UNeg occurs immediately after restarting the drive, check the appropriate
current sensor.
10106 I1 Overcurr VPos • Check the power and signal connections to the gate driver board for
10206 I2 Overcurr VPos the phase that is identified, or replace it. The IGBT could also have
10306 I3 Overcurr VPos failed open (and the opposite leg is receiving excess current).

10212 I2 IGBT OvrTemp Fault board calculated this value based on the NTC temperature plus a rise
10312 I3 IGBT OvrTemp based on recent currents through the inverter.
• Check the NTC temperature that is displayed in [In Heatsink Temp]
(port 10) and verify that it is not near the limit. If this value is near
the limit, check for cooling problems caused by a blocked or slow
heatsink fan.
• Check the output phase current displayed in [In U Phase Curr], [In V
Phase Curr], and [In W Phase Curr] (port 10) for an imbalance.
• Check for high-current operation at low speeds, since nearly all
current goes through one IGBT in this case.
• Replace the power layer interface board.
10113 I1 HS OvrTemp Resettable Coast Y A heatsink over temperature has occurred in inverter 1.
10213 I2 HS OvrTemp Fault • Verify that the NTC is not disconnected or shorted.
10313 I3 HS OvrTemp • Check for cooling problems - the heatsink cooling fan is running
slow, the enclosure filter or heatsink fins are dirty, or the ambient
temperature is too high.
• Check the NTC resistance with a meter. If the resistance is correct,
replace the power layer interface board.


10114 I1 Main PS Low Resettable Coast The main power supply is producing a low voltage. The inverter power
10214 I2 Main PS Low Fault board provides +/- 24V for the stirring fans, LEMs, and floating supply
10314 I3 Main PS Low for the gate driver boards. This fault can occur during a power-down
sequence.
• If this fault occurs when the drive is started, check the stirring fans
for a short.
• Disconnect the individual loads that are powered by this board and
look for a short or excessive current.
• Replace the inverter power supply board.
10115 I1 IPwrIF PS Low Resettable Coast The local power supply is producing a low voltage. The inverter power
10215 I2 IPwrIF PS Low Fault supply board generates +/-12V from the system power supply and
10315 I3 IPwrIF PS Low provides power to the power control and power layer interface (PLI)
boards.
• Check for a short on the power layer interface or backplane board
and replace as necessary.
• If no short is present on the power layer interface or backplane
board, replace the inverter power board.
10116 I1 Sys PS Low Alarm 1 A system power supply under voltage has occurred.
10216 I2 Sys PS Low • Using a meter, check for 24V on the inverter power supply board.
10316 I3 Sys PS Low Replace the board if necessary.
10117 I1 SysPS Overcur Resettable Coast A system power supply over current has occurred. This fault can occur
10217 I2 SysPS Overcur Fault during a power-down sequence.
10317 I3 SysPS Overcur • Check the wiring harness from the inverter power supply board to
the converter gate firing board and control pod for shorts/reversals.
• Check for a short on incoming power to the converter gate firing
board or fiber interface board.
• Disconnect P6 on the inverter power board to remove the load from
this power supply. If the breaker remains tripped, replace the
inverter power supply board.
10118 I1 HSFan PS Low Alarm 1 A heatsink fan power-supply undervoltage has occurred.
10218 I2 HSFan PS Low • Check for 230V supply on the inverter power supply board at
10318 I3 HSFan PS Low connector P6. If there is voltage, replace the inverter power supply
board.
• If there is no voltage, check the control power transformer, its
primary and secondary fuses, and wiring harness.
10119 I1 CT Harness Non-Reset Coast The drive has detected a connection loss to a current transducer.
10219 I2 CT Harness Fault • Verify that the current transducer wiring harness is connected to J22,
10319 I3 CT Harness J23, and J24 on the power interface board.
10120 I1 PLI OvrTemp Resettable Coast Y The power-layer interface circuit board is over temperature.
10220 I2 PLI OvrTemp Fault • Verify that the ambient temperature is not too high.
10320 I3 PLI OvrTemp • Verify that the stirring fans are operational.
• Check the temperature sensor test point on the power layer interface
board to verify that the output is within range. If necessary, replace
the power layer interface board.
10121 I1 PSBrd OvrTemp Resettable Coast Y The power supply board is over temperature.
10221 I2 PSBrd OvrTemp Fault • Verify that the ambient temperature is not too high.
