Operation Problems
Problem Cause/Solution/Troubleshoot
(Voltage) Modulation Grade
limit Reached
Verify correct wiring of the motor, in particular with motors which
have multiple voltage winding arrangements (eg. dual rated 230/460V
motors, wye-star/delta)
For IM motor, reduce the Field-Weakening Corner LM24 to 60% of syn-
chronous speed (720-480 rpm for 6-pole/60 Hz motor). A setting of 45%
of synchronous speed should be used as the practical lower limit of this
parameter.
For IM motor, try reducing Field Weakening Speed LM25 in steps of
100RPM.
For PM motor, check the current, particularly the peak current during
acceleration. Refer to Motor Draws High Current for additional trouble-
shooting.
Reduce the acceleration and jerk rates into high speed.
Verify there is not excessive sag of the DC bus during acceleration.
Motor turns in the wrong di-
rection (both directions)
Perform Encoder Synchronization procedure.
Inverter directions via LE03. Note, do not change A-B settings (Not
inverted/Swap A-B) to invert direction.
For PM motors, do not change (U,V,W) motor phasing !
Clunk at end of run after
brake sets
Verify drive enable input is not being dropped prematurely while drive is
still outputting torque to motor.
Adjust LT12 Current Hold and/or LT13 Current Ramp Down timers.
High peak current at either
start or stop
Check the brake timing such that the motor is not starting against the
brake and that the brake is not stopping the load.
For digital input speed control, the Speed Start Delay LT03 can be ex-
tended to prevent starting under the brake. For analog and serial speed
controls, this may need adjustment on the controller.
Erratic / glitching behavior of
keypad or drive
Ensure the keypad is securely connected to the drive. Press on the key-
pad until a click or snap is heard.
Load US05 - write conguration to the drive.
