If the Vertical-axis Load Drops When Brake is Applied
The sequence is incorrect. The Inverter goes into DC injection braking status for 0.5 seconds after deceleration
is completed. (This is the factory-set default.)
To ensure that the brake holds, set frequency detection 2 (H2-01 = 5) for the multi-function contact output ter-
minals (M1 and M2) so that the contacts will turn OFF when the output frequency is greater than L4-01 (3.0 to
5.0 Hz). (The contacts will turn ON below L4-01.)
There is hysteresis in frequency detection 2 (i.e., a frequency detection width, L4-02 = 2.0 Hz) . Change the
setting to approximately 0.5 Hz if there are drops during stop. Do not use the multi-function contact output run
signal (H2-01 = 0) for the brake ON/OFF signal.

If the Motor Overheats

The load is too big.
If the motor load is too heavy and the motor is used with the effective torque exceeding the motor's rated
torque, the motor will overheat. Reduce the load amount by either lightening the load or lengthening the accel-
eration/deceleration time. Also consider increasing the motor capacity.
The ambient temperature is too high.
The motor rating is determined within a particular ambient operating temperature range. The motor will burn
out if it is run continuously at the rated torque in an environment in which the maximum ambient operating
temperature is exceeded. Lower the motor's ambient temperature to within the acceptable ambient operating
temperature range.
The withstand voltage between the motor phases is insufficient.
When the motor is connected to the Inverter output, a surge is generated between the Inverter switching and
the motor coil. Normally the maximum surge voltage is three times the Inverter's input power supply voltage
(i.e., 1,200 V for 400 V class). Be sure to use a motor with a withstand voltage between the motor phases that
is greater than the maximum surge voltage. In particular, when using a 400 V class Inverter, use a special
motor for Inverters.
If peripheral devices like PLC's or other are influenced by the starting or
running inverter
If noise is generated by Inverter switching, implement the following countermeasures:
Change the Inverter's Carrier Frequency Selection (C6-02) to lower the carrier frequency. This will help to
some extent by reducing the amount of internal switching.
Install an Input Noise Filter at the Inverter's power supply input area.
Install an Output Noise Filter at the Inverter's power supply output area.
Use metal tubing. Electric waves can be shielded by metal, so encase the Inverter with metal (steel).
Ground the Inverter and motor.
Separate main circuit wiring from control wiring.
