Fault tracing

Chapter overview

The chapter lists all warning and fault messages including the possible cause and
corrective actions.

Safety

WARNING! Only qualified electricians are allowed to maintain the drive. The Safety
Instructions on the first pages of the appropriate hardware manual must be read
before you start working with the drive.

Warning and fault indications

A warning or fault message on the panel display indicates an abnormal drive status.
Most warning and fault causes can be identified and corrected using this information.
If not, you must contact an ABB representative.
If the drive is operated with the control panel detached, the red LED in the panel
mounting platform indicates the fault condition. (Note: Some drive types are not
fitted with the LEDs as standard).
The four digit code number in brackets after the message is for the fieldbus
communication. (See chapter

How to reset

The drive can be reset either by pressing the keypad RESET key, by digital input or
fieldbus, or switching the supply voltage off for a while. When the fault has been
removed, the motor can be restarted.

Fault history

When a fault is detected, it is stored in the Fault History. The latest faults and
warnings are stored together with the time stamp at which the event was detected.
The fault logger collects 64 of the latest faults. When the drive power is switched off,
16 of the latest faults are stored.
