Multi-Function Analog Input Selection Error

Cause: A contradictory setting is assigned to multi-function analog inputs H3-02 or H3-10 and PI functions conflict.

  • At least two analog input terminals are set to the same function.

  • H3-02 or H3-10 = C (PI Target Value) while b5-18 = 1 (enables b5-19 as the target PI value).




Remedy:

  • Change the settings to H3-02 and H3-10 so that functions no longer conflict.

  • Note: Both 0 (Frequency Reference Bias) and F (Not Used) can be set simultaneously.

  • Disable one of the PI selections.


oPE08

Parameter Selection Error

Cause: A function has been set that cannot be used in the motor control method selected.

  • In OLV/PM, parameters E5-02 to E5-07 are set to 0.

  • Contradictory settings in OLV/PM regarding E5-03, E5-09, or E5-24.

  • L6-02 (Torque Detection Level 1) is set lower than L6-14 (Motor Underload Protection).




Remedy:

  • When using a special-purpose motor, set E5-xx parameters in accordance with the test report provided.

  • Set E5-09 or E5-24 to the correct value, and set the other to 0.

  • Set the motor rated current for PM to 0 (E5-03).

  • Adjust the parameter values so that L6-14 ≥ L6-02.


oPE09

PI Control Selection Fault

Cause: PI control function selection is incorrect (Requires b5-01 = 1 or 3).

  • b5-15 is not set to 0.0 while stopping method is DC Injection or Coast with timer (b1-03 = 2 or 3).

  • b5-01 set to 1, but lower limit (d2-02) not 0 while reverse output enabled (b5-11 = 1).

  • b5-01 set to 3, but lower limit (d2-01) is not 0.




Remedy:

  • Set b5-15 to a value other than 0.0.

  • Set the stopping method to coast to stop or ramp to stop (b1-03 = 0 or 1).

  • Correct the parameter settings for d2-02, d2-01, or b5-xx to remove conflicts.
