When a fault occurs and the drive stops, do the procedures in this section to remove the cause of the fault, then re-
energize the drive.
◆ Fault and Power Loss Occur at the Same Time
WARNING! Crush Hazard. Wear eye protection when you do work on the drive. If you do not use correct safety equipment, it
can cause serious injury or death.
1. Supply power to the control circuit from the external 24 V input.
2. Use monitor parameters U2-xx to display the fault code and data on the operating status of the drive just
before the fault occurred.
3. Use the information in the Troubleshooting tables to remove the fault.
Note:
1. To find the faults that the drive detected, check the fault history in U2-02 [Previous Fault]. To find information about drive status
(for example. frequency, current, and voltage) when the drive detected the faults, check U2-03 to U2-20.
2. If the fault display stays after you re-energize the drive, remove the cause of the fault and reset.
◆ Fault Occurs Without Power Loss
1. Examine the fault code shown on the keypad.
2. Use the information in the Troubleshooting tables to remove the fault.
3. Do a fault reset.
◆ Fault Reset Procedure
If a fault occurs, you must remove the cause of the fault and re-energize the drive. The table below lists the
different methods to reset the drive after a fault.
Table 6.3 Fault Reset Methods
