7  Fault and Alarm Messages 
When a fault or alarm is generated, it is displayed immediately on the PMU as well as on the optional OP1S 
(see Section 6.3, Figure 6.3). An alarm disappears automatically from the display when the problem has been 
corrected. A fault message must be reset by pressing the P key on the PMU or the reset key on the OP1S after 
the problem has been corrected, before it is possible to return to a normal operating state. 
 
NOTE 
A current fault message or alarm can be "moved into the background" by pressing the P +   keys on the PMU 
simultaneously, in order to parameterize or to read the fault value via r949.001. Acknowledgment of a fault 
message "placed in the background" is not possible via OP1S either. You must have the fault message 
displayed on the display of the PMU again by pressing P + ↓ before you can acknowledge it. Via the optional 
operator panel OP1S, in spite of an active fault message or alarm it is still possible to parameterize. If no key 
is pressed on the PMU for 30 s, the fault message which was moved into the background or active alarm 
appears automatically on the PMU. The message can be brought back into the foreground by simultaneously 
pressing the P + ↓ keys on the PMU at the parameter number level.

General information on faults

If a fault message is not acknowledged before the electronics power supply is switched off, this fault message 
will appear again the next time the power supply is switched on. The unit will not start up unless this message is 
acknowledged (except if auto restart has been selected; see under P366 and Section 4.3.10.1).
