Fault Name  Fault Descriptions  Corrective Actions 
 
Ground fault 
When (one of) the output terminal(s) is grounded, short 
circuit current is more than 50% of AC motor drive rated 
current, the AC motor drive power module may be 
damaged. 
NOTE: The short circuit protection is provided for AC 
motor drive protection, not for protection of the user. 
1.  Check whether the IGBT power module is damaged. 
2.  Check for possible poor insulation at the output line. 
 
External Base Block. 
(Refer to Pr. 08-06) 
1.  When the external input terminal (B.B) is active, the AC 
motor drive output will be turned off. 
2.  Deactivate the external input terminal (B.B) to operate 
the AC motor drive again. 
 
Analog feedback error or ACI 
open circuit 
1.  Check parameter settings and wiring of Analog 
feedback (Pr.10-00). 
2.  Check for possible fault between system response time 
and the feedback signal detection time (Pr.10-08). 
 
 
PG feedback signal error 
1.  Check parameter settings and signal type of PG 
feedback (Pr.10-10 and Pr.10-11). 
2.  Check if the wiring of PG card is correct. 
 
Auto Tuning Error 
1.  Check cabling between drive and motor 
2.  Retry again 
 
EF when preliminary count 
value attained 
1.  Check counter trigger signal 
2.  Check Pr.03-09, Pr.03-11setting 
 
Under Current 
1.  Check Load current 
2.  Check Pr.06-12 to Pr.06-15 setting 
 
Phase Loss 
Check Power Source Input if all 3 input phases are 
connected without loose contacts. 
 
6.2 Reset 
There are three methods to reset the AC motor drive after solving the fault: 
1.  Press 
RESET
STOP
 key on PU01. 
2.  Set external terminal to “RESET” (set one of Pr.04-04~Pr.04-09 to 05) and then set to be ON.
