value 
Meaning  Possible causes 
Countermeasures 
F033  DC Bus Open 
The monitor responds if the following 
conditions obtain for longer than 30sec in 
the "RUN“ status: 
-  DC link current <1% 
-  Output voltage of the thyristor bridge 
oscillates severely 
-  -  - Rectifier fuse defective 
- No inverter connected 
F034 Par PwrSectF 
Fault in power sections connected in 
parallel 
 
At least one parallel power section is 
connected, has been selected with 
parameter P076 and reports the fault 
message "Current asymmetry between 
rectifier/regenerating unit and parallel 
power section". 
1  Current asymmetry (overcurrent or 
undercurrent in the parallel power 
section compared with the current 
in the rectifier/regenerating unit) 
|I
basic
| - |I
parallel
| > 21 % 
|I
parallel
| - |I
basic
| > 14 % 
for 300 ms 
- One of the thyristors is not firing 
- Different current ripple in the 
rectifier/regenerating unit and 
parallel power section due to 
different commutating reactors 
- Cable connection between the 
rectifier/regenerating unit and a 
parallel power section is 
interrupted or faulted 
F035  Ext Fault 1 
External fault 1 
 
A parameter-programmable fault input has 
become active. 
-  -  - There is an "External fault 1" 
signal at the selected binary input 
(P575/source for "Ext. fault 1") 
- The line to the corresponding 
binary input is interrupted. 
F036  Ext Fault 2 
External fault 2 
 
Active in the "RUN“ when the pre-charging 
time (P329) + 3s (200 ms for SW<3.0) has 
elapsed. 
 
A parameter-programmable fault input has 
been activated. 
-  -  - There is an "External fault 2" 
signal at the selected binary input 
(P586/source for "Ext. fault 2") 
- The line to the corresponding 
binary input is interrupted.. 
F038  Ext Fault 3 
External fault 3 
 
A parameter-programmable fault input has 
been activated. 
-  -  - There is an "External fault 3" 
signal at the selected binary input 
(P573/source for "Ext. fault 3") 
- The line to the corresponding 
binary input is interrupted.. 
F041 EEprom-Fault 
Parameter range fault 
 
Software monitoring of the permissible 
value range of the parameters and the 
functionality of the EEPROM chip 
(permanent memory) on electronic module 
CUR (type: X28C64, 8192 bytes) 
1  "Parameter value outside the 
permissible range". 
- Software has been replaced 
- Excessive interference (e.g. by 
contactors without RC elements, 
unshielded cables, faulty 
shielding connections ...) 
- Countermeasures: 
Acknowledge the fault 
Check EMC measures 
Set MLFB (Section 4.3.9.2) 
Establish factory setting (Section 
4.3.9.1) 
Repeat system start-up (Section 
4.2.3)  
 
  2  "EEPROM location defective"  - Hardware defect 
- Severe EMC noise 
- Countermeasures: 
Replace the CUR module 
Check EMC measures. 
 
  3  "EEPROM fault"  -  As for 1 
F042 Buffer OFlow 
Internal buffer overflow 
 
Software monitoring of various software 
buffers. 
-  -  - CUR module faulted 
- Excessive interference (e.g. by 
contactors without RC elements, 
unshielded cables, faulty 
shielding connections ...) 
 
F047 Int Fault 
Non-permissible microprocessor status 
 
The microprocessor is monitored by 
internal hardware for non-permissible 
states 
-  -  - CUR module faulted 
- Excessive interference (e.g. by 
contactors without RC elements, 
unshielded cables, faulty 
shielding connections ...)
