Chapter 2 Faults and Troubleshooting Innovation Series Medium Voltage GP Type - G Drives GEH-6385
No. Name Type Description
3 Cont failed to close Trip
The Cont failed to close trip fault occurs when contactor A is commanded to
open or close and fails to do so within the allowed time (defined by parameter
MA pickup time).
Primary causes:
The contactor A feedback is missing or bad.
Possible configuration faults:
The allowed time for contactor A to open and close is too short. The allowed
time is represented by parameter MA pickup time.
Contactor A feedback is enabled when no contactor is present in the system.
In the absence of the contactor, parameter MA contactor fbk should be set
equal to Disable.

4 Local flt Trip The Local flt trip fault occurs when the local permissive circuit is open and a
Run request, Jog request, Full flux request, or diagnostic test (cell test, pulse
test, autotune) request is issued.
Possible wiring faults:
The connections to ATBA terminal board locations 8 (L115), 10 (L24), and 12
(LCOM) are missing or damaged.
The connection to backplane connector J2 is missing or damaged.
5 Tool requested trip Trip The Tool requested trip trip fault is generated from the engineering monitor
issuing the “uf” command. It is for test purposes only.
6 Run cmd during init Alarm
The Run cmd during init alarm occurs when a Run request, Jog request, Full
flux request, or diagnostic test (cell test, pulse test, autotune) request is issued
during drive initialization. When the alarm occurs, the request to perform a
drive action is ignored.
Primary causes:
The external application layer issues a request to perform a drive action during
drive initialization.
An external input (i.e. digital input) used to request a drive action was high
during drive initialization.
7 Over speed Trip
The Over speed trip fault occurs when the magnitude of speed (variable
Speed reg fbk) is greater than the over speed threshold (parameter Over
speed flt level).
Primary causes:
Motor speed is too high.
Possible configuration faults:
Parameter Over speed flt level is set too low.

8 Timed over current Trip The Timed over current trip fault occurs when one of the squared phase
currents (variables Ia^2 filtered, Ib^2 filtered, and Ic^2 filtered) in the timed
over current detection model exceeds the timed over current threshold level.
This fault indicates that the motor has exceeded its thermal limit.
9 EE flash corrupted Trip
The EE flash corrupted trip fault occurs when the memory containing the drive
parameters is determined to be bad during drive initialization.
EE flash corrupted requires a hard reset to clear.
Possible board failures:
