292 S1A28692 03/2010
SCF1
[Motor short
circuit]
Short-circuit or grounding at the drive
output.
Check the cables connecting the drive to the motor, and the
motor insulation.
Reduce the switching frequency.
Connect chokes in series with the motor.
Check the adjustment of speed loop and brake.
Increase the [Time to restart] (ttr), page 88.
Increase the switching frequency.
SCF3
[Ground short
circuit]
Significant earth leakage current at the
drive output if several motors are
connected in parallel.
Check the cables connecting the drive to the motor, and the
motor insulation.
Reduce the switching frequency.
Connect chokes in series with the motor.
Check the adjustment of speed loop and brake.
Increase the [Time to restart] (ttr), page 88.
Reduce the switching frequency.
SOF
[Overspeed]
Instability or driving load too high. Check the motor, gain and stability parameters.
Add a braking resistor.
Check the size of the motor/drive/load.
Check the parameters settings for the
[FREQUENCY METER] (FqF-) function page 247
, if it is
configured.
SPF
[Speed fdback
loss]
Signal on "Pulse input" missing, if the
input is used for speed measurement.
Check the wiring of the input cable and the detector used.
tnF
[Auto-tuning]
Special motor or motor whose power is
not suitable for the drive.
Motor not connected to the drive.
Motor not stopped
Check that the motor/drive are compatible.
Check that the motor is present during auto-tuning.
If an output contactor is being used, close it during auto-
tuning.
Check that the motor is stopped during tune operation.
