Table 5: List of fault messages (F) and warning messages (AL)
Display
Designation Possible cause Instructions
01 Overcurrent • The frequency inverter has detected an exces-
sive current (> 4 × I
N
) in the motor cable.
• Sudden load increase.
• Short-circuit in motor cable.
• inadequate motor.
• Check the load
• Check the motor size
•Check the cable
(
h parameter P6.6)
02
Overvoltage • The DC intermediate circuit voltage has 
exceeded the internal safety limit.
• the delay time is too short.
• high overvoltage peaks in line power
increase braking time
03
Ground fault • An additional leakage current was detected 
when starting by means of a current 
measurement.
• Insulation fault in the cables or in the motor
Check the motor cable and the motor
08 System fault • CPU error message
• Internal communication fault.
Reset error: Switch mains voltage off and on (Restart).
If the fault occurs again, please contact your closest 
Moeller representative.
09
Undervoltage The DC intermediate circuit voltage has exceeded 
the internal safety limit.
Probable cause:
• the supply voltage is too low,
• internal device fault,
• Power failure.
• If a brief power failure takes place, reset the fault and 
restart the frequency inverter.
• Check the supply voltage. If it is OK, there is an internal 
fault.
If this is the case, please contact your closest Moeller 
representative.
13
Under-temperature The IGBT switch temperature is below -10 °C. Check the ambient temperature
14 Overtemperature The IGBT switch temperature is above 120 °C.
An excessive temperature warning is issued if the 
IGBT switch temperature goes above 110 °C.
• Make sure that there is an unobstructed flow of 
cooling air
• Check the ambient temperature
• Make sure that the switching frequency is not too high 
in relation to the ambient temperature and to the 
motor load
15
Motor blocked The motor blocking protection mechanism has 
been triggered.
Check the motor
16
Motor over-tempera-
ture
The frequency inverter's motor temperature 
model has detected motor overheating. The motor 
is overloaded.
Decrease the motor load.
If the motor is not overloaded, check the temperature 
model parameter.
17 Motor underload Motor idle, connection to load machine inter-
rupted (e.g. torn drive belt).
This  function must be activated at P8.5. The overload 
message is set at P8.12 and P8.13.
22
EEPROM checksum 
error
• Error when storing parameters.
• Malfunction,
• Component fault,
• Error in microprocessor monitoring.
Please contact your closest Moeller representative.
25
 Watchdog • Error in microprocessor monitoring.
• Malfunction,
• Component fault.
Reset the fault and restart
If the fault occurs again, please contact your closest 
Moeller representative.
27
Back EMF Electromotive force
The voltage induced in the motor with the rotation 
is greater than the output voltage of the frequency 
inverter.
• The rotation energy is greater than the braking energy.
• Lengthen deceleration times.
• Switch on brake chopper and braking resistor.
• Use higher rated frequency inverters.
35
Application error The application is not working. Please contact your closest Moeller representative.
50
Live zero error
(Analog input)
Monitored zero point (4 mA, 2 V 
h Parameter P2.1)
• Current less than 4 mA, voltage less than 2 V.
• Signal cable interrupted,
• The signal source is faulty.
Check the analog setpoint circuit and current and voltage 
source (
h Parameters P8.10).
