Output over current
Instantaneous over current on the drive output. Excess load or shock load on the motor.
Note: Following a trip, the drive cannot be immediately reset. A delay time is inbuilt, which al-
lows the power components of the drive time to recover to avoid damage.

Motor thermal overload
The drive has tripped to prevent damage to the motor.
Try not to overload motor. Ensure sufficient cooling air is free to circulate around the motor and
that the entry and exit vents are not blocked or obstructed.

Power stage trip
Check for short circuits on the motor and connection cable.

volt
Over voltage on DC bus
Check the supply voltage is within the allowed tolerance for the drive.
U
-
volt
Under voltage on DC bus
The incoming supply voltage is too low. This trip occurs routinely when power is removed from
the drive. If it occurs during running, check the incoming power supply voltage and all com-
ponents in the power feed line to the drive.

t
Heatsink over temperature
The drive is too hot. Check the ambient temperature around the drive is within the drive specifi-
cation (+50°C/+122F) . Ensure sufficient cooling air is free to circulate around the drive.
Increase the panel ventilation if required. Ensure sufficient cooling air can enter the drive, and
that the bottom entry and top exit vents are not blocked or obstructed.

Output fault
Indicates a fault on the output of the drive, such as one phase missing, motor phase currents
not balanced. Check the motor and connections.
