4.1.1 Alarms and Warnings

A warning or an alarm is signalled by the relevant LED on the front of the frequency converter and indicated by a code on
the display.
A warning remains active until its cause is no longer present. Under certain circumstances operation of the motor may still
be continued. Warning messages may be critical, but are not necessarily so.
In the event of an alarm, the frequency converter will have tripped. Alarms must be reset to restart operation once their
cause has been rectified. This may be done in four ways:
1. By pressing [RESET] on the keypad.
2. Via a digital input with the "Reset" function.
3. Via serial communication/optional network.
4. By resetting automatically using the [Auto Reset] function, which is a default setting for frequency converter. see
parameter H-04 Auto-Reset (Times) in AF-600 FP Programming Guide,
NOTICE
After a manual reset pressing [RESET] on the keypad, the [AUTO] button must be pressed to restart the motor.
If an alarm cannot be reset, the reason may be that its cause has not been rectified, or the alarm is trip-locked (see also
table on following page).
Alarms that are trip-locked offer additional protection, means that the mains supply must be switched off before the alarm
can be reset. After being switched back on, the frequency converter is no longer blocked and may be reset as described
above once the cause has been rectified.
Alarms that are not trip-locked can also be reset using the automatic reset function in parameter H-04 Auto-Reset (Times)
(Warning: automatic wake-up is possible!)
If a warning and alarm is marked against a code in the table on the following page, this means that either a warning occurs
before an alarm, or it can be specified whether it is a warning or an alarm that is to be displayed for a given fault.
This is possible, for instance, in parameter F-10 Electronic Overload. After an alarm or trip, the motor carries on coasting, and
the alarm and warning flash on the frequency converter. Once the problem has been rectified, only the alarm continues
flashing.
