A0910
Vdc-max
controller
de-activated
Cause: Vdc max controller has been de- activated, since controller is not capable of keeping DC-link voltage (r0026) within limits (P2172)
– Occurs if main supply voltage (P0210) is permanently too high
– Occurs if motor is driven by an active load, causing motor to goes into regenerative mode
– Occurs at very high load inertias, when ramping down

Soultion:

Check the following:
1. Input voltage (P0756) lies within range?
2. Load must match
In certain cases apply braking resistor
A0911
Vdc-max
controller
active
Cause: Vdc max controller is active; so ramp- down times will be increased automatically to keep DC-link voltage (r0026) within limits (P2172).

Soultion:

1. Check parameter inverter input voltage
2. Check ramp-down times
A0912
Vdc-min
controller
active
Cause: Vdc min controller will be activated if DC-link voltage (r0026) falls below minimum level (P2172).
– The kinetic energy of the motor is used to buffer the DC-link voltage, thus causing deceleration of the drive!.
– So short mains failures do not necessarily lead to anundervoltage trip.
A0920
ADC parameters
not set
properly
Cause: ADC parameters should not be set to identical values, since this would produce illogical results.
– Index 0: Parameter settings for output identical
– Index 1: Parameter settings for input identical
– Index 2: Parameter settings for input do not correspond to ADC type

Soultion: Analogue input parameters should not be set to the same value as each other.
A0921
DAC parameters
not set
properly
Cause: DAC parameters should not be set to identical values, since this would produce illogical results.
– Index 0: Parameter settings for output identical.
– Index 1: Parameter settings for input identical.
– Index 2: Parameter settings for output do not correspond to DAC type.

Soultion: Analogue Output parameters should not be set to the same value as each other.
A0922
No load
applied to
inverter
Cause:

– No Load is applied to the inverter.
– As a result, some functions may not work as under normal load conditions Low output voltage eg when 0 boost applied at 0 Hz.

Soultion:

1. Check that load is applied to the inverter.
2. Check motor parameters correspond to motor attached.
3. As a result, some functions may not work correctly, because there is no normal load condition.
A0923
Both JOG Left
and JOG Right
are requested
Cause: Both JOG right and JOG left (P1055/P1056) have been requested. This freezes the RFG output frequency at its current value. JOG right and JOG left signals active together.

Soultion: Make sure that JOG right and JOG left signals are not applied simultaneously.
