E.OC1 Overcurrent trip during acceleration	Cause: Overcurrent has occurred during acceleration. Remedy: Set the acceleration time longer. (Shorten the downward acceleration time in vertical lift application.) If “E.OC1” always appears at start, disconnect the motor once and restart the drive unit. If it still appears, contact sales representative. Check the wiring for output short circuit and ground fault. Change the setting to enable the stall prevention operation (Pr.156). Lower the stall prevention operation level. Choose drive unit and motor capacities that match. If the motor is coasting, stop the motor, then input a start command.
E.OC2 Overcurrent trip during constant speed	Cause: Overcurrent has occurred during constant speed operation. Remedy: Keep the load stable. Check the wiring to avoid output short circuit or ground fault. Change the setting to enable the stall prevention operation (Pr.156). Lower the stall prevention operation level. Choose drive unit and motor capacities that match. If the motor is coasting, stop the motor, then input a start command.
E.OC3 Overcurrent trip during deceleration or stop	Cause: Overcurrent has occurred during deceleration or at a stop. Remedy: Set the deceleration time longer. Check the wiring to avoid output short circuit or ground fault. Check if the mechanical brake is set to be activated too early. Change the setting to enable the stall prevention operation (Pr.156). Lower the stall prevention operation level. Choose drive unit and motor capacities that match. If the motor is coasting, stop the motor, then input a start command.
E.OV1 Regenerative overvoltage trip during acceleration	Cause: Overvoltage has occurred during acceleration. Remedy: Set the acceleration time shorter. Use the regeneration avoidance function (Pr. 882, Pr. 883, Pr. 885, Pr. 886). Set the Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level correctly.
E.OV2 Regenerative overvoltage trip during constant speed	Cause: Overvoltage has occurred during constant speed operation. Remedy: Keep the load stable. Use the regeneration avoidance function (Pr. 882, Pr. 883, Pr. 885, Pr. 886). Use the brake resistor, brake unit or power regeneration common converter (FR-CV) as required. Set the Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level correctly.
E.OV3 Regenerative overvoltage trip during deceleration or stop	Cause: Overvoltage has occurred during deceleration or at a stop. Remedy: Set the deceleration time longer. (Set the deceleration time which matches the moment of inertia of the load.) Make the brake cycle longer. Use the regeneration avoidance function (Pr. 882, Pr. 883, Pr. 885, Pr. 886). Use the brake resistor, brake unit or power regeneration common converter (FR-CV) as required.
E.THM Drive unit overload trip (electronic thermal O/L relay function)	Cause: The electronic thermal relay function for drive unit element protection has been activated. Remedy: Set the acceleration time longer. Adjust the Pr.785 PM control torque boost and Pr.795 DC brake torque boost settings. Reduce the load. Set the surrounding air temperature to within the specifications.
E.THT Motor overload trip (electronic thermal O/L relay function)	Cause: The electronic thermal relay function for motor protection has been activated. Remedy: Reduce the load.

E.ILF Input phase loss	Cause: One of the three phases on the drive unit input side has been lost. It may also appear if phase-to-phase voltage of the three-phase power input has become largely unbalanced. Remedy: Wire the cables properly. Repair a break portion in the cable. Check the Pr. 872 Input phase loss protection selection setting. Set Pr. 872 Input phase loss protection selection = “0” (without input phase loss protection) when three-phase input voltage is largely unbalanced.
E.OLT Stall prevention stop	Cause: The rotation speed has dropped to 15r/min as a result of deceleration due to the excess motor load. Remedy: Reduce the load. (Check the Pr. 22 Stall prevention operation level setting.)
E.SOT Loss of synchronism detection	Cause: Operation has gone out of synchronism or operation was performed without connecting a motor. Remedy: Set the acceleration time longer. Reduce the load. If the motor is coasting, stop the motor, then input a start command. Alternatively, use the automatic restart after instantaneous power failure/flying start function. According to the motor to be used, perform PM parameter initialization. When driving a motor other than the S-PM geared motor, perform offline auto tuning. Check the connection of the PM motor, or set the PM motor test operation.
E.BE Brake transistor alarm detection	Cause: A fault has occurred in the brake circuit, such as a brake transistor breakage. (In this case, the drive unit must be powered off immediately.) Remedy: Replace the drive unit.
E.GF Output side earth (ground) fault overcurrent at start	Cause: An earth (ground) fault has occurred on the drive unit’s output side (detected only at a start). Remedy: Remedy the ground fault portion.
E.LF Output phase loss	Cause: One of the three phases (U, V, W) on the drive unit’s output side (load side) has been lost during drive unit operation. Remedy: Wire the cables properly. If the motor is coasting, stop the motor, then input a start command.
E.OHT External thermal relay operation	Cause: The external thermal relay connected to the OH signal has been activated. Remedy: Reduce the load and operate less frequently. Even if the relay contacts are reset automatically, the drive unit will not restart unless it is reset.
E.PTC PTC thermistor operation	Cause: Resistance of the PTC thermistor connected between the terminal 2 and terminal 10 has reached the Pr.561 PTC thermistor protection level setting or higher. Remedy: Reduce the load.
E.PE Parameter storage device fault	Cause: Operation of the component where parameters are stored (control circuit board) has become abnormal. Remedy: Please contact your sales representative. When performing parameter writing frequently for communication purposes, set “1” in Pr. 342 Communication EEPROM write selection to enable RAM write. Note that powering OFF returns the drive unit to the status before RAM write.
E.PUE PU disconnection	Cause: A communication error has occurred between the PU and the drive unit, or the number of communication errors has exceeded the number of retries. Remedy: Connect the parameter unit cable securely. Check the communication data and communication settings. Increase the Pr. 122 PU communication check time interval setting. Or set “9999” (no communication check).
E.RET Retry count excess	Cause: Operation restart within the set number of retries has failed. Remedy: Eliminate the cause of the error preceding this error indication.
E.5 / E.CPU CPU fault	Cause: An error has occurred in the CPU and in the peripheral circuits. Remedy: Take measures against noises if there are devices producing excess electrical noises around the drive unit. If the situation does not improve after taking the above measure, please contact your sales representative.
E.CDO Output current detection value exceeded	Cause: Output current has exceeded the output current detection level that is set in the parameter. Remedy: Check the settings of Pr. 150 Output current detection level, Pr. 151 Output current detection signal delay time, Pr. 166 Output current detection signal retention time, and Pr. 167 Output current detection operation selection.
E.IOH Inrush current limit circuit fault	Cause: The resistor of the inrush current limit circuit has overheated. Remedy: Configure a circuit where frequent power ON/OFF is not repeated. If the situation does not improve after taking the above measure, please contact your sales representative.
E.AIE Analog input fault	Cause: A voltage (current) has been input to terminal 4 when the setting in Pr. 267 Terminal 4 input selection and the setting of voltage/current input switch are different. Remedy: Give a speed command by a current input or set Pr. 267 Terminal 4 input selection, and set the voltage/current input switch to voltage input.
E.OS Overspeed occurrence	Cause: The motor speed has exceeded the Pr. 374 Overspeed detection level. Remedy: Check that the Pr. 374 Overspeed detection level value is correct.
E.PID PID signal fault	Cause: PID upper limit (FUP), PID lower limit (FDN), or PID deviation limit (Y48) has turned ON. Remedy: Make correct settings for Pr.131 PID upper limit, Pr.132 PID lower limit, Pr. 553 PID deviation limit.
E.SAF Safety circuit fault	Cause: An internal circuit fault has occurred. Either the contact between terminals S1 and SC or terminals S2 and SC has opened. Remedy: Short across the terminals S1 and SC and the terminals S2 and SC with shortening wires. If faults other than the above appear, contact your sales representative.
