What to do if my YASKAWA Controller shows a Drive Overload?
If your YASKAWA Controller is showing a Drive Overload, it could be due to a load that is too large. Try decreasing the load. Alternatively, the acceleration/deceleration times or cycle times may be too short. Examine these times and the motor start/stop frequencies, and increase the values set in C1-01 to C1-08 [Acceleration/ Deceleration Times].
Why is my YASKAWA Controller showing a Braking Transistor Overload Fault?
A Braking Transistor Overload Fault on your YASKAWA Controller indicates that the duty cycle of the braking transistor is high, meaning the regeneration power or repetition frequency is high. Possible solutions include: * Installing a braking unit (CDBR-series). * Installing a regenerative converter. * Increasing the deceleration time.
How to troubleshoot Current Offset Fault on YASKAWA Controller?
A Current Offset Fault occurs when the drive starts operation while induced voltage remains in the motor. To resolve this: * Create a sequence that prevents restarting operation when induced voltage is present. * Set b3-01 = 1 [Speed Search at Start Selection = Enabled]. * Use Speed Search from Fmax or Fref [H1-xx = 61, 62] to perform a speed search using one of the external terminals.
What does Comparator 1 Limit Fault mean on YASKAWA Controller?
A Comparator 1 Limit Fault on your YASKAWA Controller means that the monitor value set in H2-20 [Comparator 1 Monitor Selection] was within the range of H2-21 [Comparator 1 Lower Limit] and H2-22 [Comparator 1 Upper Limit]. Examine the monitor value and address the underlying cause of the fault.
What does Comparator 2 Limit Fault indicate on YASKAWA Controller?
A Comparator 2 Limit Fault on your YASKAWA Controller means the monitor value set in H2-26 [Comparator 2 Monitor Selection] was not in the range of H2-27 [Comparator 2 Lower Limit] and H2-28 [Comparator 2 Upper Limit]. Examine the monitor value and remove the cause of the fault.
How to fix Modbus Communication Error on YASKAWA Controller?

What to do if Bluetooth communication fails on YASKAWA Controller?
If Bluetooth communication fails on your YASKAWA Controller, it might be because the smartphone or tablet with DriveWizard Mobile is too far from the keypad. Ensure the device is within 10 m (32.8 ft) of the keypad. Also, radio waves from other devices may interfere with the communication. Make sure no other devices around the keypad use the same radio bandwidth (2400 MHz to 2480 MHz) to prevent radio interference.
How to fix Keypad Battery Low Voltage error on YASKAWA Controller?
If you are getting a Keypad Battery Low Voltage error on your YASKAWA Controller, it means the keypad battery voltage is low. Replace the keypad battery to resolve this issue.
