Code Name Causes Possible Solutions
EF0 Option Card External Fault
The communication option card received an
external fault from the controller.
1. Find the device that caused the external fault and remove the
cause.
2. Clear the external fault input from the controller.
Programming error occurred on the controller side. Examine the operation of the controller program.
Note:
• The drive detects this error if the alarm function on the external device side is operating.
• If the drive detects this error, the terminal assigned to H2-01 to H2-03 = 10 [MFDO Function Select = Alarm] will be ON.
• Set the stopping method for this fault in F6-03 [Comm External Fault (EF0) Select].
Code Name Causes Possible Solutions
EF1 External Fault (Terminal S1)
MFDI terminal S1 caused an external fault through
an external device.

MFDI terminal S2 caused an external fault through
an external device.
1. Find the device that caused the external fault and remove the
cause.
2. Clear the external fault input in the MFDI.
The wiring is incorrect. Correctly connect the signal line to MFDI terminal S2.
External Fault [H1-02 = 2C to 2F] is set to MFDI
terminal S2, but the terminal is not in use.
Correctly set the MFDI.
Note:
If the drive detects this error, the terminal assigned to H2-01 to H2-03 = 10 [MFDO Function Select = Alarm] will be ON.
