9.2  Exceptional situations 
9.2.1  Determining movement direction 
The  frequency  converter  needs  to  know  in  which  direction  the  motor  is  running  to  execute  the  limit  functions 
properly, because it has only one input for the slowdown limit and one input for the stop limit. 
If the slowdown limit signal is deactivated when the motor is not running, the frequency converter cannot determine 
which direction is safe. Therefore, the maximum speed is limited in both directions until the slowdown limit signal is 
activated. Same applies if the slowdown limit signal is deactivated during a power shortage. 
If  the stop limit signal is deactivated when  the motor  is not running,  the frequency converter cannot determine 
which direction is blocked. In this situation it is possible to run in both directions with minimum speed. The normal 
operating speeds are restored when the stop limit signal is activated. 
Note: Driving to a stop limit will immediately cut off power to the motor. 
9.3  Warning and Fault codes 
When the frequency converter detects an unacceptable situation it stops the current movement and indicates  a 
warning or fault code. After the unacceptable situation is removed or warning has been reset, the red LED switches 
off and the green LED continues to blink to inform about the latest active fault code. Green LED ends blinking the 
latest active fault code after second power off. 
Some of the faults are reset automatically by the software, while others may require the frequency converter to be 
powered down. The causes of the fault(s) must be resolved and both drive commands have to be at the OFF 
position for 0.5s before the motor can be started again. In a case of over current fault the supply voltage must be 
switched off and back on before it is possible to resume operation.
