How can I reset my drive after an event code is displayed?
Resetting the drive after a trip
The drive will not accept any control input while an event code is displayed. The event code can be cleared by resetting
the drive. The method by which the Micro-Speed
®
Smart-Move, Micro-Speed
®
CX™, or Micro-Speed
®
MX/MV™ drives
may be reset is determined by a specific programming parameter. For the Smart-Move
®
and CX™ models, it is parameter
L27; and for the MX/MV™ models, it is parameter C10. By default, all of the drives are programmed to reset when the
directional button on the pendant station is toggled (press-release). No matter what method is programmed in the
above parameters, you can always perform a reset by removing power from the drive (disconnect mainline) and then
wait for the charge light to go off, then turning on the line power feeding the drive.
**Please Note** that the F2 code does not reset like most other event codes. If an F2 code is triggered, the drive will
need to remain powered on, and may need several minutes to allow for the motor to cool. After sufficient time has
passed, the drive will need to be reset one last time - this is the normal functionality of this code.
