Cause Possible Solution
An external device has tripped an alarm
function
Remove the cause of the external fault and reset the fault.
Wiring is incorrect
•
Properly connect the signal lines to the terminals assigned for external fault detection (H1-oo = 20
to 2F).
• Reconnect the signal line.
Incorrect multi-function contact input setting
•
Check for unused terminals set for H1-oo = 20 to 2F (External Fault).
• Change the terminal settings.
Digital Operator Display Fault Name
Err
EEPROM Write Error
Data cannot be written to the EEPROM
Cause Possible Solution
Noise has corrupted data while writing to the
EEPROM
•
Press .
• Correct the parameter setting.
• Cycle power to the drive.
• If the problem continues, replace the control board or the entire drive. Contact Yaskawa or a Yaskawa
representative for instructions on replacing the control board.
Hardware problem
If the problem continues, replace the control board or the entire drive. Contact Yaskawa or a Yaskawa
representative for instructions on replacing the control board.
Digital Operator Display Fault Name
FAn
Internal fan fault
Fan or magnetic contactor failure
Cause Possible Solution
Internal cooling fan has malfunctioned
• Cycle power to the drive.
• Check for fan operation.
• Verify the cumulative operation time of the fan with monitor U4-03, and verify the cumulative operation
time of the fan maintenance timer with U4-04.
• If the cooling fan has exceeded its expected performance life or is damaged in any other way, follow
the replacement instructions in the Peripheral Devices & Options chapter.
Fault detected in the internal cooling fan or
magnetic contactor to the power supply.
• Cycle power to the drive.
• If the fault continues to occur, replace the power board/gate drive board or the entire drive.
• Contact Yaskawa or a Yaskawa representative for instructions on replacing the power board/gate drive
board.
Digital Operator Display Fault Name
FbH
Excessive PID Feedback
PID feedback input is greater than the level set b5-36 for longer than the time set to b5-37. To enable fault
detection, set b5-12 = 2 or 5.
Cause Possible Solution
Parameters are set inappropriately Check the settings of parameters b5-36 and b5-37.
Incorrect PID feedback wiring Correct the wiring.
