What to do if Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (ELCB/GFCI) trips during run with YASKAWA L1000E?
- L
  Lori SullivanAug 12, 2025
  If the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (ELCB/GFCI) trips during the run of your YASKAWA Controller, it may be due to excessive leakage current. Here are a few things you can try: * Increase the ELCB/GFCI sensitivity or use one with a higher threshold. * Lower the carrier frequency (C6-03). * Reduce the length of the cable between the drive and the motor. * Install a noise filter or reactor on the output side of the drive.

Why doesn't my YASKAWA L1000E Controller allow selection of the desired Auto-Tuning mode?
- A
  anthonysalazarAug 16, 2025
  If your YASKAWA Controller does not allow selection of the desired Auto-Tuning mode, it is likely because the selected control mode does not support it. To resolve this, check if the desired tuning mode is available for the selected control mode, or change the motor control method by adjusting setting A1-02.

How to reduce electrical noise from YASKAWA L1000E Controller?
- D
  David HoAug 25, 2025
  If you are experiencing electrical noise from the YASKAWA Controller or its output lines during operation, it's likely due to PWM switching. Here are some potential solutions: * Lower the carrier frequency (C6-03). * Install a noise filter on the input and/or output side of the drive. * Use a metal conduit for wiring to shield it from switching noise. * Ensure the drive and motor are properly grounded. * Separate the main circuit wiring from the control lines. * Make sure wires and the motor have been properly grounded.

Why does YASKAWA L1000E Controller motor rotate in opposite direction?
- U
  uperryAug 27, 2025
  If the motor connected to your YASKAWA Controller rotates in the opposite direction from the Up/Down command, there could be two main reasons: * The phase wiring between the drive and motor is incorrect. Check the motor wiring. * The drive control circuit terminals for the Up and Down commands are switched. Check the control circuit wiring and correct any faulty wiring.

How to fix 'Cannot Change Parameter Settings' on YASKAWA L1000E Controller?
- M
  Matthew ChristensenSep 4, 2025
  If you cannot change parameter settings on your YASKAWA Controller, here are a few possible reasons and solutions: * The drive is running the motor. Stop the drive and switch to Programming Mode, as most parameters cannot be edited during run. * The Access Level is set to restrict access. Set the Access Level to allow editing (A1-01 = 2). * You are not in the Parameter Setup Mode. Switch to Programming Mode. * The wrong password was entered. Reset the password if needed by scrolling to A1-04, pressing STOP and at the same time. Then set a new password to parameter A1-05. * Undervoltage was detected. Check the drive main input voltage (U1-07) and all main circuit wiring.

What to do if Encoder Offset (E5-11) Set During Auto-Tuning (Rotational or Stationary) Consistently Differs by 30 Degrees or More on YASKAWA L1000E Controller?
- K
  Katie JenningsSep 7, 2025
  To address this issue with your YASKAWA Controller, perform Auto-Tuning of PG-E3 encoder characteristics (T2-01 = 12).
