  • has the fan failed? Check the direction of rotation.

  • has a phase of the line supply failed?


A05006 (N)
Power unit: Overtemperature thermal model

Cause: The temperature difference between the chip and heat sink has exceeded the permissible limit value (blocksize power units only).




Remedy: Not necessary. The alarm disappears automatically once the limit value is undershot.
A05065 (F, N)
Voltage measured values not plausible

Cause: The voltage measurement does not supply any plausible values and is not used.




Remedy: The following parameterization must be made in order to deactivate the alarm:

  • Deactivate voltage measurement (p0247.0 = 0).

  • Deactivate flying restart with voltage measurement (p0247.5 = 0) and deactivate fast flying restart (p1780.11 = 0).


F05118 (A)
Precharging contactor simultaneity monitoring time exceeded

Cause: A feedback signal for the precharging contactor (ALM, SLM, BLM diode) or the line contactor (BLM thyristor) interconnected and the simultaneity monitoring activated.




Remedy:

  • check the monitoring time setting (p0255[4, 6]).

  • check the contactor wiring and activation.

  • if required, replace the contactor.


F05119 (A)
Bypass contactor simultaneity monitoring time exceeded

Cause: A feedback signal for the bypass contactor is interconnected and the simultaneity monitoring (p0255[5, 7]) activated. After opening or closing a contactor of the parallel connection, after a monitoring time has elapsed, not all of the contactors have assumed the same state.

Fault value (r0949, interpret binary):

Bit 0 = 1: simultaneity error when closing the contactors.

Bit 1 = 1: simultaneity error when opening the contactors.

Bit 16 = 1: PDS0 contactor is closed.

Bit 17 = 1: PDS1 contactor is closed.

Bit 18 = 1: PDS2 contactor is closed.

Bit 19 = 1: PDS3 contactor is closed.

Bit 20 = 1: PDS4 contactor is closed.

Bit 21 = 1: PDS5 contactor is closed.

Bit 22 = 1: PDS6 contactor is closed.

Cause: The measured DC voltage lies outside the tolerance range after precharging has been completed.

Permissible range: 1.16 * p0210 < r0070 < 1.8 * p0210

Note: The fault can only be acknowledged when the drive is switched off.

See also: p0210 (Drive unit line supply voltage)



Remedy:

  • Check the parameterized supply voltage and if required change (p0210).

  • Check the line supply voltage.


A06921 (N)
Braking resistor phase asymmetry

Cause:

  • The three resistors of the braking chopper are not symmetrical.

  • DC link voltage oscillations caused by fluctuating loads of the connected drives.





Remedy:

  • Check the feeder cables to the braking resistors.

  • If required, increase the value for detecting asymmetry (p1364).


F06922
Braking resistor phase failure

Cause: A phase failure for the brake resistor was detected.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal):

11: Phase U

12: Phase V

13: Phase W

See also: p3235 (Phase failure signal motor monitoring time)



Remedy:

  • Check the feeder cables to the braking resistors.


F07011
Drive: Motor overtemperature

Cause: KTY84/PT1000: The motor temperature has exceeded the fault threshold (p0605) or the timer (p0606) after the alarm threshold was exceeded (p0604) has expired. The response parameterized in p0610 becomes active. The alarm is withdrawn if the response threshold for wire breakage or sensor not connected is exceeded (R > 2120 Ohm).

PTC or bimetallic NC contact: The response threshold of 1650 Ohm was exceeded or the NC contact opened and the timer (p0606) has expired. The response parameterized in p0610 becomes active.

Possible causes:

  • Check the ambient temperature and the motor ventilation.

  • Check the wiring and the connection of the PTC or bimetallic NC contact.

  • See also: p0604, p0605, p0606, p0612, p0625, p0626, p0627, p0628


A07012 (N)
Drive: Motor temperature model 1/3 overtemperature

Cause: The motor temperature model 1/3 identified that the alarm threshold was exceeded.

Hysteresis: 2K.

Alarm value (r2124, interpret decimal):

200: Motor temperature model 1 (I2t): temperature too high.

300: Motor temperature model 3: temperature too high.

See also: r0034, p0605, p0611, p0612, p0613



Remedy:

  • See also: p0610 (Motor overtemperature response)


A07015
Drive: Motor temperature sensor alarm

Cause: An error was detected when evaluating the temperature sensor set in p0601.

With the fault, the time in p0607 is started. If the fault is still present after this time has expired, then fault F07016 is output; however, at the earliest, 50 ms after alarm A07015.

Possible causes:

– wire breakage or sensor not connected (KTY: R > 2120 Ohm, PT1000: R > 2120 Ohm).

– measured resistance too low (PTC: R < 20 Ohm, KTY: R < 50 Ohm, PT1000: R < 603 Ohm).



Remedy:

  • Make sure that the sensor is connected correctly.

  • Check the parameterization (p0601).

  • See also: r0035, p0601, p0607


F07016
Drive: Motor temperature sensor fault

Cause: An error was detected when evaluating the temperature sensor set in p0601.

Possible causes:

– wire breakage or sensor not connected (KTY: R > 2120 Ohm, PT1000: R > 2120 Ohm).

– measured resistance too low (PTC: R < 20 Ohm, KTY: R < 50 Ohm, PT1000: R < 603 Ohm).

Note: If alarm A07015 is present, the time in p0607 is started. If the fault is still present after this time has expired, then fault F07016 is output.



Remedy:

  • Make sure that the sensor is connected correctly.

  • Check the parameterization (p0601).

  • Induction motors: Deactivate temperature sensor fault (p0607 = 0).


F07080
Drive: Incorrect control parameter

Cause: The closed-loop control parameters have been parameterized incorrectly (e.g. p0356 = L_spread = 0).

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal): The fault value includes the parameter number involved.

See also: p0310, p0311, p0341, p0344, p0350, p0354, p0356, p0357, p0358, p0360, p0400, p0408, p0640, p1082, p1300



Remedy:

  • Modify the parameter indicated in the fault value (r0949) (e.g. p0640 = current limit > 0).


F07082
Macro: Execution not possible

Cause: The macro cannot be executed.

Fault value (r0949, interpret hexadecimal): ccccbbaa hex (cccc = preliminary parameter number, bb = supplementary information, aa = fault cause).

Fault causes for the trigger parameter itself:

19-23: Called file is not valid for various parameters.

24: Data type of a TAG is incorrect.

Fault causes for the parameters to be set:

25-61: Various parameter setting errors (e.g., undefined value, value not “DEFAULT”, trigger recursively called, write permission denied).



Remedy:

  • Check the parameter involved.

  • Check the macro file and BICO interconnection.

  • See also: p0015, p1000, p1500


F07083
Macro: ACX file not found

Cause: The ACX file (macro) to be executed was not able to be found in the appropriate directory.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal): Parameter number with which the execution was started.



Remedy:

  • Check whether the file is saved in the appropriate directory on the memory card.


F07084
Macro: Condition for WaitUntil not fulfilled

Cause: The WaitUntil condition set in the macro was not fulfilled in a certain number of attempts.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal): Parameter number for which the condition was set.



Remedy:

  • Check and correct the conditions for the WaitUntil loop.


F07086
Units changeover: Parameter limit violation due to reference value change

Cause: A reference parameter was changed in the system. This resulted in the fact that for the parameters involved, the selected value was not able to be written in the per unit notation.

The values of the parameters were set to the corresponding violated minimum limit/maximum limit or to the factory setting.

Possible causes: The steady-state minimum limit/maximum limit or that defined in the application was violated.



Remedy:

  • Check the adapted parameter value and if required correct.


F07088
Units changeover: Parameter limit violation due to units changeover

Cause: A changeover of units was initiated. This resulted in a violation of a parameter limit.

Possible causes: When rounding off a parameter corresponding to its decimal places, the steady-state minimum limit or maximum limit was violated. Inaccuracies for the data type “FloatingPoint”.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal): Diagnostics parameter r9451 to display all parameters whose value had to be adapted.



Remedy:

  • Check the adapted parameter values and if required correct.

  • See also: r9451 (Units changeover adapted parameters)


A07089
Changing over units: Function module activation is blocked because the units have been changed over

Cause: An attempt was made to activate a function module. This is not permissible if the units have already been changed over.

See also: p0100 (IEC/NEMA Standards), p0505 (Selecting the system of units)



Remedy:

  • Restore units that have been changed over to the factory setting.


A07092
Drive: moment of inertia estimator still not ready

Cause: The moment of inertia estimator still has no valid values. The acceleration cannot be calculated.

The moment of inertia estimator is ready, if the frictional values (p1563, p1564) as well as the moment of inertia value (p1493) have been determined (r1407.26 = 1).



Remedy:

  • Repeat the operation when the moment of inertia estimator is ready (r1407.26 = 1).


A07094
General parameter limit violation

Cause: As a result of the violation of a parameter limit, the parameter value was automatically corrected.

Minimum limit violated –> parameter is set to the minimum value.

Maximum limit violated –> parameter is set to the maximum value.

Alarm value (r2124, interpret decimal): Parameter number, whose value had to be adapted.



Remedy:

  • Check the adapted parameter values and if required correct.


A07200
Drive: Master control ON command present

Cause: The ON/OFF1 command is present (no 0 signal).

The command is either influenced via binector input p0840 (current CDS) or control word bit 0 via the master control.



Remedy:

  • Switch the signal via binector input p0840 (current CDS) or control word bit 0 via the master control to 0.


F07220 (N, A)
Drive: Master control by PLC missing

Cause: The “master control by PLC” signal was missing in operation.

– interconnection of the binector input for “master control by PLC” is incorrect (p0854).

– the higher-level control has withdrawn the “master control by PLC” signal.

– data transfer via the fieldbus (master/drive) was interrupted.



Remedy:

  • Check the interconnection of the binector input for “master control by PLC” (p0854).

  • Check the “master control by PLC” signal and, if required, switch in.

  • Check the data transfer via the fieldbus (master/drive).


F07300 (A)
Drive: Line contactor feedback signal missing

Cause:

  • The line contactor was not able to be closed within the time in p0861.

  • The line contactor was not able to be opened within the time in p0861.

  • The line contactor dropped out during operation.

  • The line contactor has closed although the drive converter is switched off.





Remedy:

  • Check the setting of p0860.

  • Check the feedback circuit from the line contactor.

  • Increase the monitoring time in p0861.


F07320
Drive: Automatic restart interrupted

Cause:

  • The specified number of restart attempts (p1211) has been completely used up.

  • The monitoring time for the power unit has expired (p0857).

  • When exiting commissioning or at the end of motor identification, the drive is not automatically switched on again.





Remedy:

  • Increase the number of restart attempts (p1211).

  • Increase the delay time in p1212 and/or the monitoring time in p1213.

  • Either increase or disable the monitoring time of the power unit (p0857).

  • Reduce the delay time to reset the start counter (p1213[1]).


A07321
Drive: Automatic restart active

Cause: The automatic restart (AR) is active. When the line supply returns and/or the causes of the existing faults are removed the drive is automatically restarted. The pulses are enabled and the motor starts to rotate.



Remedy:

  • The automatic restart (AR) should, if required, be inhibited (p1210 = 0).

  • An automatic restart can be directly interrupted by withdrawing the switch-on command (BI: p0840).

  • For p1210 = 26: by withdrawing the OFF2- / OFF3 command.


F07330
Flying restart: Measured search current too low

Cause: During a flying restart, it was identified that the search current reached is too low.

It is possible that the motor is not connected.



Remedy:

  • Check the motor feeder cables.


F07331
Flying restart: Function not supported

Cause: It is not possible to power up with the motor rotating (no flying restart).



Remedy:

  • Deactivate the “flying restart” function (p1200 = 0).


F07332
Flying restart: maximum speed reduced

Cause: The maximum speed that can be reached is reduced; at very high speeds problems associated with the flying restart can be encountered.

Possible causes: power ratio, power unit/motor too high.



Remedy:

  • Parameter changes are not required.


Note: A flying restart at speeds above 3000 rpm should be avoided.
A07352
Drive: Stop sensor not plausible

Cause: The stop sensors are not plausible.

Possible causes:

– BICO interconnections are not OK (p3384, p3385, p3386).

– sensors are not supplying a valid signal (both supply a 0 signal or a 1 signal).



Remedy:

  • Check the BICO interconnections for the stop sensors.

  • Check the sensors.

  • See also: p3384, p3385, p3386


A07353
Drive: DC quantity control deactivated

Cause: The DC quantity control has deactivated itself. The manipulated variable of the DC quantity control was at its limit.



Remedy:

  • Optimize the DC quantity controller (Kp, Tn, bandwidth, PT2 filter).


A07400 (N)
Drive: DC link voltage maximum controller active

Cause: The DC link voltage controller has been activated because the upper switch-in threshold has been exceeded (r1242, r1282).

The ramp-down times are automatically increased in order to maintain the DC link voltage (r0070) within the permissible limits.

When the DC link voltage controller is switched out (disabled), this is the reason that the ramp-function generator output is set to the speed actual value.



Remedy:

  • If the controller is not to intervene: increase the ramp-down times or switch off the Vdc_max controller (p1240 = 0, p1280 = 0).

  • If the ramp-down times are not to be changed: use a chopper or regenerative feedback unit.


A07401 (N)
Drive: DC link voltage maximum controller deactivated

Cause: The Vdc_max controller can no longer maintain the DC link voltage (r0070) below the limit value (r1242, r1282) and was therefore switched out (disabled).

– the line supply voltage is permanently higher than specified for the power unit.

– the motor is permanently in the regenerative mode as a result of a load that is driving the motor.



Remedy:

  • Check whether the input voltage is within the permissible range.

  • Check whether the load duty cycle and load limits are within the permissible limits.


A07402 (N)
Drive: DC link voltage minimum controller active

Cause: The DC link voltage controller has been activated as the lower switch-in threshold has been undershot (r1246, r1286). The kinetic energy of the motor is used to buffer the DC link. The drive is therefore braked.



Remedy:

  • The alarm disappears when power supply returns.


F07404
Drive: DC link voltage monitoring Vdc_max

Cause: The monitoring of the DC link voltage p1284 has responded (only U/f control).



Remedy:

  • Check the line supply voltage.

  • Check the braking module.

  • Adapt the device supply voltage (p0210).

  • Adapt the DC link voltage monitoring (p1284).


F07405 (N, A)
Drive: Kinetic buffering minimum speed fallen below

Cause: During kinetic buffering the speed fell below minimum speed (p1257 or p1297) and the line supply did not return.



Remedy:

  • Check the speed threshold for the Vdc_min controller (kinetic buffering) (p1257, p1297).


F07406 (N, A)
Drive: Kinetic buffering maximum time exceeded

Cause: The maximum buffer time (p1255 and p1295) has been exceeded without the line supply having returned.



Remedy:

  • Check the time threshold for Vdc-min controller (kinetic buffering) (p1255, p1295).


A07409 (N)
Drive: U/f control, current limiting controller active

Cause: The current limiting controller of the U/f control was activated because the current limit was exceeded.



Remedy:

  • Increase current limit (p0640).

  • Reduce the load.

  • Slow down the ramp up to the setpoint speed.


F07410
Drive: Current controller output limited

Cause: The condition “I_act = 0 and Uq_set_1 longer than 16 ms at its limit” is present.

– motor not connected or motor contactor open.

– motor data and motor configuration (star-delta) do not match.

– no DC link voltage present.

– power unit defective.

– the “flying restart” function is not activated.



Remedy:

  • Connect the motor or check the motor contactor.

  • Check the motor parameterization and the connection type.

  • Check the DC link voltage (r0070).

  • Check the power unit.

  • Activate the “flying restart” function (p1200).


F07411
Drive: Flux setpoint not reached when building up excitation

Cause: When quick magnetizing is configured (p1401.6 = 1) the specified flux setpoint is not reached although 90% of the maximum current is specified.

– incorrect motor data.

– motor data and configuration do not match.

– current limit set too low.

– induction motor in I2t limiting.

– power unit too small.

– magnetizing time too short.



Remedy:

  • Correct the motor data. Perform motor data identification.

  • Check the motor configuration.

  • Correct the current limits (p0640).

  • Reduce the induction motor load.

  • If necessary, use a larger power unit.

  • Check motor supply cable and power unit.

  • Increase p0346.


A07416
Drive: Flux controller configuration

Cause: The configuration of the flux control (p1401) is contradictory.

1: Quick magnetizing (p1401.6) for soft starting (p1401.0).

2: Quick magnetizing for flux build-up control (p1401.2).

3: Quick magnetizing (p1401.6) for Rs identification after restart (p0621 = 2).



Remedy:

  • Fault cause 1: Shut down soft start (p1401.0 = 0) or quick magnetizing (p1401.6 = 0).

  • Fault cause 2: Switch-on flux build-up control (p1401.2 = 1) or shut down quick magnetizing (p1401.6 = 0).

  • Fault cause 3: Re-parameterize Rs identification (p0621 = 0, 1) or shut down quick magnetizing (p1401.6 = 0).


F07426 (A)
Technology controller actual value limited

Cause: The actual value for the technology controller has reached a limit.

Fault value (r0949): 1 (upper limit), 2 (lower limit).



Remedy:

  • Adapt the limits to the signal level (p2267, p2268).

  • Check the actual value normalization (p0595, p0596).


A07428 (N)
Technology controller parameterizing error

Cause: The technology controller has a parameterizing error.

Alarm value (r2124): 1 (Upper output limit in p2291 is set lower than the lower output limit in p2292).



Remedy:

  • Set the output limit in p2291 higher than in p2292.


F07435 (N)
Drive: Setting the ramp-function generator for sensorless vector control

Cause: During operation with sensorless vector control (r1407.1) the ramp-function generator was stopped (p1141). An internal setting command of the ramp-function generator output caused the set setpoint speed to be frozen.



Remedy:

  • Deactivate the holding command for the ramp-function generator (p1141).

  • Suppress the fault (p2101, p2119).


A07530

Remedy:

  • Select the existing drive data set.

  • Set up additional drive data sets.


A07531
Drive: Command Data Set CDS not present

Cause: The selected command data set is not available (p0836 > p0170).



Remedy:

  • Select the existing command data set.

  • Set up additional command data sets.


F07754
Drive: Incorrect shutoff valve configuration

Cause: An incorrect shutoff valve configuration was detected.

Fault value (r0949, interpret decimal):

100: Enable Safety Integrated, but p0218.0 = 0.

101: Manipulated variable inhibit time less than wait time for feedback (shutoff valve open).

102: Manipulated variable inhibit time less than wait time for feedback (shutoff valve closed).



Remedy:

  • For fault value = 100: Check the enable of Safety Integrated and the shutoff valve.

  • For fault value = 101/102: Set the manipulated variable inhibit time higher than the wait time to evaluate the feedback signal contacts (p0230 > p9625/p9825).


F07800
Drive: No power unit present

Cause: The power unit parameters cannot be read or no parameters are stored in the power unit.



Remedy:

  • Carry out a POWER ON (switch-off/switch-on) for all components.

  • Check the power unit and replace if necessary.

  • Check the Control Unit, and if required replace it.

  • After correcting the topology, the parameters must be again downloaded.


F07801
Drive: Motor overcurrent

Cause: The permissible motor limit current was exceeded.

– effective current limit set too low.

– current controller not correctly set.

– U/f operation: Up ramp was set too short or the load is too high.

– Short-circuit in the motor cable or ground fault.

– Motor current does not match current of power unit.

– Switch to rotating motor without flying restart function.



Remedy:

  • Check the current limits (p0640).

  • Vector control: Check the current controller (p1715, p1717).

  • U/f control: Check the current limiting controller (p1340 … p1346).

  • Increase the up ramp (p1120) or reduce the load.

  • Check the motor and motor cables for short-circuit and ground fault.

  • Choose “flying restart” function (p1200) if switched to rotating motor.


F07802
Drive: Infeed or power unit not ready

Cause: After an internal switch-on command, the infeed or drive does not signal ready.

– monitoring time is too short.

– DC link voltage is not present.

– associated infeed or drive of the signaling component is defective.

– supply voltage incorrectly set.



Remedy:

  • Increase the monitoring time (p0857).

  • Ensure that there is a DC link voltage. Check the DC link busbar. Enable the infeed.

  • Replace the associated infeed or drive of the signaling component.

  • Check the line supply voltage setting (p0210).


A07805 (N)
