Some of the faults are reset automatically by the software, while others may require the frequency converter to
be powered down.
The causes of the fault(s) must be resolved and both drive commands have to be on the
OFF position for 0.5s before the motor can be started again. In a case of over current fault the supply voltage
must be switched off and back on before it is possible to resume operation.
The warning and fault code numbers and corresponding warnings and faults, possible causes and suggested
solutions are listed in the following table.
