Code Name Causes Possible Solutions
Err EEPROM Write Error
There was a problem with the EEPROM hardware. • Re-energize the drive.
• If the fault stays, replace the control board or the drive. Contact
Yaskawa or your nearest sales representative to replace the
board.
Electrical interference corrupted the data while it was
writing to the EEPROM of the drive.
• Push ENTER Key.
• Set the parameters again.
Note:
Do a Fault Reset to clear the fault.
Code Name Causes Possible Solutions
FAn1 Drive Cooling Fan Fault
The cooling fan stopped operating correctly. • Examine cooling fan operation.
• Re-energize the drive.
• Examine U4-03 [Cooling Fan Ope Time] and U4-04 [Cool Fan
Maintenance]. If the performance life of the cooling fan is
expired or if there is damage to the fan, replace the fan.
The circulation fan is damaged. • Examine circulation fan operation.
• Re-energize the drive.
• Examine U4-03 [Cooling Fan Ope Time] and U4-04 [Cool Fan
Maintenance]. If there is damage to the circulation fan or if the
performance life of the fan is expired, replace the fan.
