4.1 Introduction to Alarms and Warnings
A warning or alarm is signalled by the relevant indicator
light on the front of the frequency converter and indicated
by a code on the display.
A warning remains active until its cause is no longer
present. Under certain circumstances, operation of the
motor may still continue. Warning messages may be
critical, but are not necessarily so.
If an alarm occurs, the frequency converter has tripped.
Alarms must be reset to restart operation once their cause
has been rectied.
This may be done in 4 ways:
1. By pressing [Reset].
2. Via a digital input with the Reset function.
3. Via serial communication.
4. By resetting automatically using the [Auto Reset]
function, see parameter 14-20 Reset Mode.
NOTICE
After a manual reset pressing [Reset], press [Auto On] or
[Hand On] to restart the motor.
If an alarm cannot be reset, the reason may be that its
cause has not been rectied, or the alarm is trip-locked,
see Table 4.1.
Alarms that are trip-locked oer additional protection,
means that the mains supply must be switched o before
the alarm can be reset. After being switched back on, the
frequency converter is no longer blocked and may be reset
as described above once the cause has been rectied.
Alarms that are not trip-locked can also be reset using the
automatic reset function in parameter 14-20 Reset Mode.
If a warning and alarm is marked against a code in the
table on the following page, this means that either a
warning occurs before an alarm, or it can be specied
whether it is a warning or an alarm that is to be displayed
for a given fault.
This is possible, for instance, in parameter 1-90 Motor
Thermal Protection. After an alarm or trip, the motor carries
on coasting, and the alarm ash on the frequency
converter. Once the problem has been rectied, only the
alarm continues ashing.
