Point to be
Verified
1. Check all power and control connections.
1. Check if the external signal is properly connected.
2. Check the status of the control potentiometer (if used).
1. Check if parameters are properly set for the application.
1. Check if the inverter is not blocked due to a fault condition.
2. Check if terminals XC1:15 and 16 and/or XC1:34 and 36
are not shorted (short-circuit at the 24 Vdc power supply).
1. Decrease motor overload.
2. Increase P0136, P0137 (V/f), or P0169/P0170 (vector
control).
and tighten all power connections.
2. Check all internal connections of the inverter.
1. Replace potentiometer.
1. Identify the cause of the oscillation. If it is caused by
electrical noise, use shielded cables or separate from the
power and control wiring.
1. Check parameters P0410, P0412, P0161, P0162, P0175,
and P0176.
2. Refer to the programming manual.
1. Check if the values of P0133 (Minimum Speed) and
P0134 (Maximum Speed) are properly set for the motor
and application used.
1. Check the level of the reference control signal.
2. Check the settings (gain and offset) of parameters P0232
to P0240.
1. Check if the motor has been properly sized for the
application.
1. Decrease P0180.
2. Check P0410.
