If your Danfoss DC Drives show 'Power On' and the indicator is red, this typically indicates an IP Address Conflict. Resolve the IP conflict.
Why Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302 power on with red light?
If your Danfoss DC Drives show 'Power On' and the indicator is red, this typically indicates an IP Address Conflict. Resolve the IP conflict.
What to do for option detection issues in Danfoss DC Drives?
If your Danfoss DC Drives detects a change in the option layout, enable option layout changes to apply the change.
What to do if the motor is not running on Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302?
If the motor does not start in your Danfoss DC Drives, check the motor connection and the service switch. Apply mains power if using a 24 V DC option card. Press [Auto On] or [Hand On] to run the motor, depending on the operation mode. Ensure a valid start signal is applied. Deactivate the motor coast signal by applying 24 V on terminal 27 or program this terminal to no operation. Program the correct reference signal source and check the wiring and scaling of terminals.
What to do if option configuration has changed in Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302 DC Drives?
If the option configuration has changed in Danfoss DC Drives, it means one or more options have either been added or removed since the last power-down. Check that the configuration change is intentional and reset the unit.
What does control word timeout mean on Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302?
If you're experiencing a control word timeout with your Danfoss DC Drives, it means there is no communication to the frequency converter. To resolve this, check the connections on the serial communication cable, increase parameter 8-03 Control Word Timeout Time, check the operation of the communication equipment, and verify that proper EMC installation was performed.
What to do if brake check failed on Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302?
If the brake check failed on your Danfoss DC Drives, it means the brake resistor is not connected or not working. Check 2-15 Brake Check.
How to fix brake resistor short circuit in Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302 DC Drives?
If your Danfoss DC Drives are reporting a brake resistor short circuit, the brake resistor is being monitored during operation. Remove the power to the frequency converter and replace the brake resistor.
What does 'DC link voltage high' mean for Danfoss DC Drives?
The message 'DC link voltage high' for Danfoss DC Drives means that the intermediate circuit voltage (DC) is higher than the high voltage warning limit.
How to troubleshoot a motor not reaching maximum speed on Danfoss DC Drives?
If the motor is not reaching its maximum speed using Danfoss DC Drives, program the correct frequency limits. Also, ensure that the reference input signal is scaled correctly by adjusting the settings.
Why is the motor speed unstable in my Danfoss DC Drives?
If the motor speed is unstable in your Danfoss DC Drives, check the settings in parameter group 1-6* Load Depen. Setting. For closed loop operation, check settings in parameter group 20-0* Feedback.
