7-8-5  Overcurrent Suppression Function   
 
This function suppresses the overcurrent caused by a steep current increase due to an impact load etc. 
It
 
causes
 
the
 
inverter
 
to
 
stop
 
accelerating
 
when
 
the
 
output
 
current
 
reaches
 
approximately
 
180%
 
of
 
the
 
rated
 
current.
 
 
• 
If setting the Overcurrent Suppression Selection (b027) to 01 (Enabled) still causes an overcurrent, 
set it to 02 (Reduced voltage startup). This setting reduces the output voltage and moreover sup- 
presses the overcurrent at the startup after a temporal stop. 
• 
Even during overcurrent suppression, input from the STOP/RESET key will be accepted. 
• 
Although the overcurrent suppression function is enabled, an overcurrent trip may occur due to short 
circuit or equivalent.

7-8-6  External Trip (EXT)   
 
Use this signal to have the inverter trip via an error signal generated by a peripheral system. To do so, 
set the Multi-function Input 1 to 7 Selection (C001 to C007) to 12 (EXT). 
When the EXT terminal turns ON, the inverter trips with the alarm code E12 displayed and shuts off its output. 
Once the inverter trips with the alarm code E12 displayed, the trip status will not be reset even if the 
error signal is reset from external equipment (the terminal EXT is turned OFF). 
In this case, perform the reset operation or cycle the power supply to reset the trip.
