E.GF
Output side earth (ground) fault overcurrent
This function stops the inverter output if an earth (ground) fault overcurrent flows due to an earth
(ground) fault that occurred on the inverter's output (load) side.
Check for an earth (ground) fault in the motor and connection cable.
Remedy the earth (ground) fault portion.
E.LF
Output phase failure
This function stops the inverter output if one of the three phases (U, V, W) on the inverter's output side
(load side) opens.
· Check the wiring (Check that the motor is normal.)
· Check that the capacity of the motor used is not smaller than that of the inverter.
· Wire the cables properly.
· Check the Pr. 251 Output phase failure protection selection setting.
E.OHT
External thermal relay operation
If the external thermal relay provided for motor overheat protection, or the internally mounted
temperature relay in the motor, etc. switches on (contacts open), the inverter output is stopped.
· Check for motor overheating.
· Check that the value of 7 (OH signal) is set correctly in any of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection).
· Reduce the load and operating duty.
· Even if the relay contacts are reset automatically, the inverter will not restart unless it is reset.
E.PTC
PTC thermistor operation
Appears when the motor overheat status is detected for 10s or more by the external PTC thermistor
input connected to the terminal AU.
· Check the connection between the PTC thermistor switch and thermal protector.
· Check the motor for operation under overload.
· Is valid setting ( = 63) selected in Pr. 184 AU terminal function selection ? (Refer to
Manual (applied).)
Reduce the load weight.
E.OPT
Option alarm
Appears when the AC power supply is connected to the terminal R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 accidentally when a
high power factor converter is connected.
Appears when torque command by the plug-in option is selected using Pr. 804 Torque command source
selection and no plug-in option is mounted.
Appears when the switch for the manufacturer setting of the plug-in option is changed.
· Check that the AC power supply is not connected to the terminal R/L1, S/L2, T/L3 when a high power
factor converter (FR-HC, MT-HC) or power regeneration common converter (FR-CV) is connected.
· Check that the plug-in option for torque command setting is connected.
· Check the parameter (Pr. 30) setting and wiring.
· The inverter may be damaged if the AC power supply is connected to the terminal R/L1, S/L2, T/L3
when a high power factor converter is connected. Please contact your sales representative.
· Check for connection of the plug-in option. Check the Pr. 804 Torque command source selection setting.
· Return the switch for the manufacturer setting of the plug-in option to the initial status. (Refer to
instruction manual of each option)
