10.3 Warning / Self-diagnosis Detection Function 
 
When the inverter detects a warning, the keypad displays a warning code (flash).   
Note: The fault contact output does not energize on a warning and the inverter continues operation. 
When the warning is no longer active the keypad will return to its original state. 
 
When the inverter detected a programming error (for example two parameters contradict each other of 
are set to an invalid setting), the keypad displays a self-diagnostics code.   
 
Note: The fault contact output does not energize on a self-diagnostics error. While a self-diagnostics 
code is active the inverter does not accept a run command until the programming error is corrected. 
 
Note: When a warning or self- diagnostic error is active the warning or error code will flash on the 
keypad. When the RESET key is pressed, the warning message (flash) disappears and returns after 5 
sec. If the warning or self-diagnostic error still exists. 
 
Refer to Table 10.3.1 for and overview, cause and corrective action for inverter warnings and 
self-diagnostic errors.

OV 
(flash) 
 Over volta
e  
DC bus voltage exceeds 
the OV detection level: 
410Vdc: 200V class 
820Vdc: 400V class 
1050Vdc:575V class 
1230Vdc:690V class 
(for 440V class, if input 
voltage 01-14 is set lower 
than 400V, the OV 
detection value will is 
decreased to 700Vdc) 
 Deceleration time set too 
short, resulting in 
regenerative energy flowing 
back from motor to the 
inverter. 
 The inverter input voltage is 
too high. 
 Use of power factor 
correction capacitors. 
 Excessive braking load. 
 Braking transistor or resistor 
defective. 
 Speed search parameters set 
incorrectly. 
 Increase deceleration time 
 Reduce input voltage to 
comply with the input 
voltage requirements or 
install an AC line reactor to 
lower the input voltage. 
 Remove the power factor 
correction capacitor. 
 Use dynamic braking unit. 
 Replace braking transistor 
or resistor. 
 Adjust speed search 
parameters. 
 
UV 
(flash) 
under volta
e  
DC bus voltage is lower 
than the UV detection 
level or the pre-charge 
contactor is not active 
while the inverter is 
running. 
190Vdc: 200V class;   
380Vdc: 400V class 
546Vdc:575/690V class 
(the detection value can 
be adjusted by 07-13) 
 The input voltage is too low. 
 Input phase loss. 
 Acceleration time set too 
short.  
 Input voltage fluctuation.   
 Pre-charge contactor 
damaged. 
 DC bus voltage feedback 
signal value not incorrect. 
 Check the input voltage. 
 Check input wiring. 
 Increase acceleration time.
 Check power source 
 Replace pre-charge 
contactor 
 Replace control board or 
complete inverter.
