Chapter 10 Troubleshooting the Drive
IR Volts Range 77  The drive autotuning default is Calculate, and the value 
calculated for IR Drop Volts is not in the range of 
acceptable values.
Re-enter motor nameplate data.
IXo Voltage-
Range
87  Ixo voltage calculated from motor nameplate data is too 
high.
1. If Ixo calculation is not needed, disable it by clearing bit 2 of Compensation 
(inverter parameter 56), then clear fault.
2. If Ixo calculation is needed, re-enter motor nameplate data, and, if necessary, 
repeat Autotune (inverter 61).
Line Feq Lost 228  Line frequency not in the range of 47...63 Hz. 1. Verify line frequency.
2. Check line voltage feedback wiring and signal path: includes line 
synchronization board, AC Line I/O board, Rectifier control board.
Low DC Bus 223  The DC bus voltage is too low. Verify proper input voltage.
Motor I Imbalance 37  The motor current imbalance displayed in inverter 
Imbalance Count (221) has exceeded inverter Imbalance 
Limit (49) for time configured in inverter Imbalance Time 
(50).
Clear fault.
Motor Overload 7  
Internal electronic overload trip.
Enable/disable with inverter Fault Config 1 (238).
An excessive motor load exists. Reduce load so drive output current does not 
exceed the current set by inverter Motor OL Amps (48).
Not At Voltage 237  The rectifier did not regulate to the desired bus voltage 
within the defined time.
1. Verify that rectifier is currently synchronized to the AC line.
2. Check all fuses and cabinet wiring.
3. Replace line sync board.
4. Replace AC Line I/O board.
5. Replace rectifier control board and/or rectifier power board.
OverSpeed Limit 25  Functions such as slip compensation or bus regulation 
have attempted to add an output frequency adjustment 
greater than that programmed in inverter Overspeed 
Limit (83).
Remove excessive load or overhauling conditions or increase inverter Overspeed 
Limit (83).
OverVoltage 5  DC bus voltage exceeded maximum value. Monitor the AC line for high line voltage or transient conditions. Bus overvoltage 
can also be caused by motor regeneration. Extend the decel time.
Parameter Chksum 100  The calculated checksum does not match the stored 
checksum for inverter parameter values read from 
non-volatile memory on the inverter control board.
This fault can be cleared by writing a nonzero value to 
inverter Reset To Defaults parameter (197). 
1. Restore inverter defaults using inverter Reset To Defaults parameter (197).
2. Reload user set if used, or reprogram inverter parameters.
3. If fault recurs, replace inverter control board.
Params Defaulted 48  The drive was commanded to write default values to all 
inverter parameters.
1. Clear the fault or cycle power to the drive.
2. Program the drive parameters as needed.
Phase U to Grnd 38  A phase-to-ground fault has been detected between the 
drive and motor in this phase.
1. Check the wiring between the drive and motor.
2. Check motor for grounded phase.
Phase V to Grnd 39 
Phase W to Grnd 40 
Phase UV Short 41  Excessive current has been detected between these two 
output terminals.
1. Check the motor and drive output terminal wiring for a shorted condition.
Phase VW Short 42 
Phase UW Short 43

 The network card connected to DPI port stopped 
communicating on its external network.
The fault code indicates the offending port number
(71 = port 1, etc.).
1. Check communication board for proper connection to external network.
2. Check ex
ternal wiring to module on port.
3. Verify external network fault.
Port 1...5 DPI Loss 81
82
83
84
85
 DPI port stopped communicating via DPI, or an attached 
peripheral with control capabilities was removed. Fault 
82 indicates specifically that the rectifier stopped 
communicating with the inverter.
1. If DPI device was not intentionally disconnected, check wiring to the port. 
Replace wiring, port expander, peripherals, communications interface board, 
or inverter control board as required.
2. If fault 82 occurs, check wiring between communications interface board and 
the two control boards. Replace communications interface board, rectifier 
control board, or inverter control board as required.
