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.

Solution:

Check the following:
1. Input voltage (P0210) must lie within range.
2. Load must be match.
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).
A0912
Vdc-min
controller
active
Cause: Vdc min controller will be activated if DC-link voltage (r0026) falls below minimum level (P2172).
