11      Diagnostics
The keypad display on the drive gives various information about the 
status of the drive. The keypad display provides information on the 
following categories: 
• Trip indications 
• Alarm indications 
• Status indications
11.1      Status modes 
Figure 11-1 Keypad status modes
1  Drive OK status
2 Trip status
3 Alarm status
11.2      Trip indications
The output of the drive is disabled under any trip condition so that the 
drive stops controlling the motor. If the motor is running when the trip 
occurs it will coast to a stop.
During a trip condition, the display indicates that a trip has occurred and 
the keypad will display the trip string. Some trips have a sub-trip number 
to provide additional information about the trip. If a trip has a sub-trip 
number, the sub-trip number is flashed alternately with the trip string.
Trips are listed alphabetically in Table 11-2 based on the trip indication 
shown on the drive display. 
11.3      Identifying a trip / trip source
Some trips only contain a trip string whereas some other trips have a trip 
string along with a sub-trip number which provides the user with 
additional information about the trip. 
A trip can be generated from a control system or from a power system. 
The sub-trip number associated with the trips listed in Table 11-1 is in the 
form xxyzz and used to identify the source of the trip.
Table 11-1 Trips associated with xxyzz sub-trip number
The digits xx are 00 for a trip generated by the control system. For a 
drive, if the trip is related to the power system then xx will have a value of 
01, when displayed the leading zeros are suppressed.
For a control system trip (xx is zero), the y digit where relevant is defined 
for each trip. If not relevant, the y digit will have a value of zero.
The zz digits give the reason for the trip and are defined in each trip 
description.
