MCH FAULT MESSAGES
FAULT
DESCRIPTION
OUTPUT
Output transistor fault: Output current exceeded
200%. May be ground fault or short circuit.
LO VOLTS
Low DC Bus Voltage fault: DC bus voltage dropped
below 60%. May be low line voltage.
HI VOLTS
High DC Bus Voltage fault: DC bus voltage
exceeded 120%. May be overhauling load.
HI TEMP
High Temperature fault: Heatsink or ambient
temperature too high.
OVERLOAD
Current Overload fault: Output current exceeded
100% for too long. VFD may be undersized.
PWR TRAN
Power Transient fault.
PWR SAG
Power Sag fault: New control board installed.
Perform factory reset using Parameter 65.
LANGUAGE
Language EEPROM fault.
EXTERNAL
External fault: TB-13D activated (Parameter 50).
DB ERROR
Dynamic Brake fault: DB Resistors overloaded.
CONTROL
Control Board fault: Was new software installed?
Perform factory reset using Parameter 65.
INTERNAL
Internal fault.
INTERN (#)
Internal fault.
FLWR / SER
Loss of Follower/Serial fault: 4-20 mA signal at
TB-5B dropped below 2 mA (Parameter 55), or the
serial link was lost (Parameter 56).
MCH FAULT HISTORY
Parameter 99 - FAULT HISTORY stores the last eight faults that tripped
the drive. The FAULT HISTORY indicates the number of the fault
(number 1 is the most recent fault), the fault message, and the status of
the drive at the time of the fault. An example is shown below:

In the example above, the second fault is being viewed, which is an
OVERLOAD fault that ocurred while the drive was accelerating.
