Possible Causes  What to Check and Suggested Measures 
(3)  Frequency switching or 
multi-frequency 
command was enabled. 
Check whether the relay signal for switching the frequency 
command is chattering. 
Î If the relay has a contact problem, replace the relay. 
(4) The connection 
between the inverter 
and the motor was too 
long.
Check whether auto-torque boost or auto-energy saving operation 
is enabled. 
Î Perform auto-tuning of the inverter for every motor to be used. 
Î Enable load selection for higher startup torque (F37, A13 = 1) 
and check for any vibration. 
Î Make the output wire as short as possible. 
Once cancel all the automatic control systems--auto torque boost, 
auto energy saving operation, overload prevention control, current 
limiter, torque limiter, regenerative energy suppression, auto search 
for idling motor speed, slip compensation, torque vector control, 
and droop control, overload stop function, then check that the moto
vibration comes to a stop. 
Î Cancel the functions causing the vibration. 
Î Readjust the data of the output current fluctuation damping gain 
(H80 and A41). 
(5)  The inverter output is 
hunting due to vibration 
caused by low stiffness 
of the load. Or the 
current is irregularly 
oscillating due to special 
motor parameters. 
Check that the motor vibration is suppressed if you decrease the 
level of F26 (Motor sound (Carrier frequency)) or set F27 (Moto
sound (Tone)) to "0." 
Î Decrease the carrier frequency (F26) or set the tone to "0" (F27 = 
0).

Possible Causes  What to Check and Suggested Measures 
(1)  The carrier frequency 
was set too low. 
Check the data of function codes F26 (Motor sound (Carrie
frequency)) and F27 (Motor sound (Tone)). 
Î Increase the carrier frequency (F26). 
Î Readjust the setting of F27 to appropriate value. 
(2) The ambient 
temperature of the 
inverter was too high 
(when automatic 
lowering of the carrier 
frequency was enabled 
by H98). 
Measure the temperature inside the panel of the inverter. 
Î If it is over 40qC, lower it by improving the ventilation. 
Î Lower the temperature of the inverter by reducing the load. (In 
the case of a fan or a pump, lower the setting data of the 
frequency limiter (F15).) 
Note: If you disable H98, an 
J
or
NW
alarmmayoccur. 
(3) Resonance with the load Check the precision of the mounting of the load or check whethe
there is resonance with the panel or likes. 
Î Disconnect the motor and run it without the inverter, and 
determine where the resonance comes from. Upon locating the 
cause, improve the characteristics of the source of the 
resonance. 
Î Adjust the settings of C01 (Jump frequency 1) to C04 (Jump 
frequency (Hysteresis width)) so as to avoid continuous running 
in the frequency range causing resonance.
