PG slip error   
(PGF4) 
Under PG mode, when the motor frequency exceeds 
encoder  observer  slip range  (Pr.10-
count, the fault time is longer than the detection tim
encoder observer slip (Pr.10-14), PGF4 fault occurs.   
Action and Reset 
Action condition  Pr.10-13 
Action time  Pr.10-14 
Fault treatment parameter 
Pr.10-15 
0: Warn and keep operation 
1: Fault and ramp to stop 
2: Fault and coast to stop 
Reset method 
Auto 
When Pr.10-15 = 0, PGF4 is a “Warning”, 
when the deviation between 
output frequency and motor frequency is smaller than the encoder 
observer slip range, the warning is automatically cleared.   
Manual  When Pr.10-15 = 1 or 2, PGF4 is a “Fault”. You must reset manually. 
Reset condition  Reset immediately 
Record  When Pr.10-15 = 1 or 2, PGF4 is a “Fault”, and the fault is recorded. 
Cause  Corrective Actions 
Incorrect settings for PG feedback 
parameters 
Reset correct values for Pr.10-13 and Pr.10-14. 
Incorrect settings for ASR 
parameters and accel./decel. time 
Reset ASR parameters. 
Set correct accel./decel time. 
Incorrect settings of encoder 
parameters 
Reset encoder parameters (Pr.10-01). 
Accel./Decel. time is too short  Reset proper accel./decel. time. 
Incorrect settings of torque limit 
parameters (Pr. 06-12, Pr. 11-17–
20) 
Reset proper setting values for Pr.06-12 and Pr.11-17–Pr.17-20. 
Motor shaft lock  Remove causes of motor shaft lock. 
Mechanical brake is not released  Check the action sequence of the system.
