Motor Overheat 1 
 
The temperature 
signal from motor 
temperature sensor 
via analog input 
terminal A1 
(E3-01=20) exceeded 
the overheat 
detection level of the 
drive. 
1. Incorrect motor 
temperature input (terminal 
MT) wiring 
2. Fault on the machinery 
(e.g., machinery is locked up) 
3. Motor overheat 
1. Check the load, acceleration / 
deceleration time and cycle time 
a. Reduce the load 
b. Increase C1-00 to C1-03 
(Acc./Dec. Time) settings   
2. Adjust d1-02 to d1-09 (V/F 
Characteristics) 
Note: If the d1-02 and d1-09 are 
set too low, the tolerance at low 
speed will be reduced.   
3.a. Check the setting for motor 
rated current. Set d1-00 as per 
the data written on the motor 
plate.   
b. Check if the motor cooling is 
working properly.   
1. The load is too heavy 
2. The acceleration and 
deceleration times are too 
short 
3. The motor is driven below 
the rated speed with a high 
load 
4. Incorrect setting in P1-00 
(Motor Protection Function 
Selection) when running a 
special motor 
5. The voltage determined by 
the V/F is too high 
6. d2-00 (Motor Rated 
Current ) setting incorrect 
7. The base frequency is set 
too low 
8. Use one drive to run 
multiple motors   
9. The electrical thermal 
protection characteristics do 
not match the motor 
overload characteristics.   
1. Check loading capacity   
» Reduce the load 
2. Confirm acceleration and 
deceleration times 
»Increase C1-00 to C1-03 
parameter settings 
3. »Reduce the load 
» Increase the speed 
» Either increase the motor 
capacity or use a special-purpose 
motor if the motor needs to 
operate at low speeds 
4. Set P1-00 to 2. 
5. Adjust d1-02 to d1-09 settings 
(V/F Characteristics)   
Note: If d1-02 to d1-09 settings 
are too low, load tolerance at low 
speeds will be reduced 
6.Confirm the motor rated 
current 
» Set d2-00 (Motor Rated 
Current ) according to the motor 
nameplate
