1  The number of 
"Error Record" 
8-bits hexadecimal 
coded ASCII 
Up to 10 errors 
2 to 11  Error Record 1 to 
Error Record 10 
8-bits hexadecimal 
coded ASCII 
*1 
*1  Value corresponding to the error message is transmitted (refer to Table 24 and Table 25). The most recent error has the 
smallest parameter number. When the number of errors being detected is under the maximum number, the value of 
parameter that is larger than the number of errors has been detected is set to 0. 
 
Example: 
When 3 errors have been detected in the past; 
    The number of "Error Record"  : 03
hex
 = 3 errors 
    Error Record 1  : 0F
hex
 = 15 = Disturbance Xb 
    Error Record 2  : 0D
hex
 = 13 = Disturbance Xh 
    Error Record 3  : 12
hex
 = 18 = T.Cable Disconnected 
    Error Record 4 to 10  : 00
hex
 = No error recorded

5.4.12  SetSpeedSetPoint 
Function: Changes the "Speed Set Point" value. This value can be changed the range from 18,500 to 
36,500 rpm. The threshold value of the illumination pattern of the "ROTATION" LED is fixed. It is not 
changed even if the setting value of the rotational speed is changed.   
CAUTION 
 
There is an endurance limit of setting changes (no more than 24 times per day for about ten years). 
If this limit is exceeded, it not only may become impossible to change the setting but can also cause 
pump failure. Do not make setting changes in excess of this endurance limit.
