Number Cause Remedy
A07991 Motor data identification activated Switch on the motor and identify the motor data.
F08501 Setpoint timeout
● Check the PROFINET connection.
● Set the controller to RUN mode.
● If the error occurs repeatedly, check the monitoring time set (p2044).
F08502 Monitoring time, sign-of-life ex‐
pired
● Check the PROFINET connection.
F08510 Send configuration data not valid
● Check the PROFINET configuration
A08511 Receive configuration data not
valid
A08526 No cyclic connection
● Activate the control with cyclic operation.
● Check the parameters "Name of Station" and "IP of Station" (r61000,
r61001).
A08565 Consistency error affecting ad‐
justable parameters
Check the following:
● IP address, subnet mask or default gateway is not correct.
● IP address or station name used twice in the network.
● Station name contains invalid characters.
F13100 Know-how protection: Copy pro‐
tection error
The know-how protection and the copy protection for the memory card are
active. An error occurred when checking the memory card.
● Insert a suitable memory card and switch the inverter supply voltage
temporarily off and then on again (POWER ON).
● Deactivate the copy protection (p7765).
F13101 Know-how protection: Copy pro‐
tection cannot be activated
Insert a valid memory card.
F30001 Overcurrent Check the following:
● Motor data, if required, carry out commissioning
● Motor connection method (Υ / Δ)
● V/f operation: Assignment of rated currents of motor and Power Module
● Line quality
● Make sure that the line commutating reactor is connected properly
● Power cable connections
● Power cables for short-circuit or ground fault
● Power cable length
● Line phases
If this doesn't help:
● V/f operation: Increase the acceleration ramp
● Reduce the load
● Replace the power unit
F30002 DC-link voltage overvoltage Increase the ramp-down time (p1121).
Set the rounding times (p1130, p1136).
Activate the DC-link voltage controller (p1240, p1280).
Check the line voltage (p0210).
Check the line phases.
F30003 DC-link voltage undervoltage Check the line voltage (p0210).
