Drive Programming and Parameters Chapter 5

View and Reset Alarms

The drive logs all faults and warnings to their respective queues. Collectively the
faults and warnings comprise a message category called “Alarms”. When a new
alarm occurs, the F6 key on any screen begins to flash. Pressing [F6] when it
flashes opens the ALARM SUMMARY screen.

Figure 218 - Alarm Summary Screen

The screen displays the current drive status, as well as the last active fault that
tripped the drive, and any pending warning.

The alarm summary includes a time and date stamp, indicating the last start/stop
time for the drive.

To acknowledge the alarm(s), press [F6], which stops the flashing. (If a new alarm
occurs, the [F6] key will flash again.)

Press [F7] to reset any latched faults in the drive. This has no action upon either
the fault or warning queues; if faults persist, they will re-queue as new faults.

The drive stores faults and warnings in separate queues. As both function
similarly, this section details only the fault queue as an example. To access the
fault queue, press [F9] from the ALARM SUMMARY screen.

IMPORTANT The screen only shows a fault and/or warning if the drive is still in the

fault and/or warning state. This is independent of the content of the
queues. Note: Terminal FRN > 4.005.
