Table 5.3 Description of Alarm Word, Warning Word and Extended Status Word
The alarm words, warning words and extended status words can be read out via serial bus or optional fieldbus for
diagnostics. See also 16-94 Ext. Status Word.
WARNING 1, 10 Volts low
The control card voltage is below 10 V from terminal 50.
Remove some of the load from terminal 50, as the 10 V
supply is overloaded. Max. 15 mA or minimum 590 Ω.
A short circuit in a connected potentiometer or improper
wiring of the potentiometer can cause this condition.
Troubleshooting
Remove the wiring from terminal 50. If the
warning clears, the problem is with the wiring. If
the warning does not clear, replace the control
card.
WARNING/ALARM 2, Live zero error
This warning or alarm only appears if programmed in
6-01 Live Zero Timeout Function. The signal on one of the
analog inputs is less than 50% of the minimum value
programmed for that input. Broken wiring or faulty device
sending the signal can cause this condition.
Troubleshooting
Check connections on all the analog input
terminals. Control card terminals 53 and 54 for
signals, terminal 55 common. MCB 101 terminals
11 and 12 for signals, terminal 10 common. MCB
109 terminals 1, 3, 5 for signals, terminals 2, 4, 6
common).
Check that the frequency converter programming
and switch settings match the analog signal type.
Perform Input Terminal Signal Test.

Status Word
WARNING/ALARM 3, No motor
No motor has been connected to the output of the
frequency converter.
WARNING/ALARM 4, Mains phase loss
A phase is missing on the supply side, or the mains
voltage imbalance is too high. This message also appears
for a fault in the input rectifier on the frequency converter.
Options are programmed at 14-12 Function at Mains
Imbalance.
Troubleshooting
Check the supply voltage and supply currents to
the frequency converter.
WARNING 5, DC link voltage high
The intermediate circuit voltage (DC) is higher than the
high-voltage warning limit. The limit is dependent on the
frequency converter voltage rating. The unit is still active.
WARNING 6, DC link voltage low
The intermediate circuit voltage (DC) is lower than the low-
voltage warning limit. The limit is dependent on the
frequency converter voltage rating. The unit is still active.
WARNING/ALARM 7, DC overvoltage
If the intermediate circuit voltage exceeds the limit, the
frequency converter trips after a time.
Troubleshooting
