5.11 Troubleshooting without Fault Display
This section describes troubleshooting problems that do not trip an alarm or fault.
The following symptoms indicate that the drive is not set correctly for proper performance with the motor. Refer to
Motor Performance Fine-Tuning on page 140 in this manual or to the FSDrive-MV1000 Parameter Guide (TOEP
C710687 03) for guidance on troubleshooting.
• Motor hunting and oscillation

Cause Possible Solutions
The drive is running the motor (i.e., the Run command is
present).
• Stop the drive and switch over to the Programming Mode.
• Most parameters cannot be edited during run.
The Access Level is set to restrict access to parameter
settings.
Set the Access Level to allow parameters to be edited (A1-01 = 2).
The digital operator is not in the Parameter Setup Mode
(the screen should display “PAr”).
Determine the mode in which the digital operator is currently set.
Parameters cannot be edited when in the Setup Mode (“STUP”). Switch modes so that
“PAr” appears on the screen. Refer to The Drive and Programming Modes on page 113
for details.
A contact input terminal is set to allow parameter editing
(H1-02 through H1-16 = 1B).
When the terminal is open, parameters cannot be edited.
Turn on the contact input terminal set to 1B and then set the parameter.
The wrong password was entered.
If the password entered to A1-04 does not match the password saved to A1-05, then
drive settings cannot be changed.
Reset the password.
• If you cannot remember the password:
• Scroll to A1-04. Press and simultaneously. Parameter A1-05 will
appear.
• Set a new password to parameter A1-05.
