Fault severity classification

The drive’s faults and warnings are graded into three classes by severity (Class 1, Class 2, Class 3). Severity: Class 1 > Class 2 > Class 3.

ClassShort nameNotes
Class 1NO.1Non-resettable faults
Class 1NO.1Resettable faults
Class 2NO.2Resettable faults
Class 3NO.3Resettable warnings

Fault reset

Reset operation: set H0D.01=1 (fault reset), or use DI function 2 (FunIN.2: ALM-RST, fault and warning reset) and drive it to logical active.

  • NO.1 and NO.2 resettable faults: turn off the servo-enable (S-ON to OFF), then set H0D.01=1 or use DI function 2.
  • NO.3 resettable warnings: set H0D.01=1 or use DI function 9.
⚠️

For some faults or warnings, the cause must be eliminated before reset, and a successful reset does not mean the change is in effect. Changes that require a power-cycle must be followed by a control-power cycle; changes that require a stop must be applied with the servo disabled.

ParameterNameRangeFunctionEffectiveDefault
H0D.01Fault reset0: no action; 1: fault/warning resetFor resettable faults and warnings, clears the fault display on the panel; returns to “0” after reset completes.Immediate0

Fault and warning history

The drive stores up to 10 of the most recent faults and warnings, along with the state parameters captured at each event. If the same fault or warning occurs repeatedly within the last 5 events, it is recorded only once.

Use H0B.33 to select how many events back from the latest, H0B.34 to view the name of the (n+1)-th event, and H0B.35H0B.42 to view the corresponding state parameters. When there is no fault, H0B.34 shows “E000” on the panel.

Restart after a fault

StageActionNotes
When the fault occursView the five most recent fault timestamps, types, and the speed/current/bus/DI/DO state at the time of fault on the operator panelUse H0B.34H0B.43
Before resetIdentify and clear the cause from the fault type on the panel, then resetRefer to the fault-code list for handling

Ways to reset a fault:

  1. Set a DI to function 2 (H03.02H03.10=2, fault reset) and drive it active. Long-press the red stop/reset key on the panel for 2 seconds.
  2. H0D.01=1 enables reset in any operating mode.
  3. Power-cycle the drive for automatic reset: disconnect the main power, wait until the panel display disappears, then reapply power.
  4. Reset over the communication interface: write “7” (fault reset) to communication address 2000H from the host to reset after the fault is cleared.

Troubleshooting the test run in speed mode

Start-up stageSymptomCauseVerification
Control supply on (24V 0V)Digit display does not light or show “ry”1. Control supply voltage faultUnplug CN1, CN2, CN3, CN4; fault persists. Measure 24V/0V voltage
2. Input voltage faultFor 3ph 380V models, measure R/S/T AC voltage. If main DC bus ((+), (-)) is below the undervoltage point of 350V, the display shows “nr”
3. Program-burn terminal shortedCheck whether the program-burn terminals are shorted
4. Drive faultRefer to the fault-code list and clear the cause
