Alarm Code Type Description of Alarm/Error

If DC voltage of main circuit power supply is

abnormally high, over voltage alarm occurs
HV ( HV level: 430V DC). Alarm occurs when
1 regenerative discharge resistor is
(Overvoltage Alarm) disconnected. For 200V Ac input, main
circuit voltage is 283V DC (200×1.414).
Discharge operation is started at voltage of
main circuit voltage plus 60V.
LV5V
(Control power supply Alarm occurs if control circuit power supply
2 undervoltage) voltage (+5V) is abnormally low (LV5V
Level: 4.6 VDC)
Alarm occurs if DC voltage of main circuit
LVDC power supply is abnormally low. (LVDV
(DC Link undervoltage alarm) level: 120V). Causes may include power
supply voltage (+15V) being 10V or lower
3
and driver module PCB not inserted
normally.

Alarm occurs when short time regeneration

DCSW
(Regenerative control circuit
4 abnormality)
discharge energy is too high. Cause can be
disconnection of regenration discharge
resistor. If IGBT for discharge is
continuously on for 1 second or longer, cause
may be short circuit between C and E for
IGBT for discharge.

DCOH (Excessive regenerative Alarm occurs when average regenerative

5
discharge alarm) discharge energy is too high. Causes may
 include operation of thermostat for
regenrationdischarge resistor or thermostat
between (15) and (16) on terminal block T1:
this operation results from too frequent
acceleration/deceleration operations.

Alarm occurs when thermostat in amplifier

operates ( when thermostat contact on PCB
6 OH (Servo amplifier overheat) opens). Check if motor load exceeds rated
current.

Alarm occurs when magnetic contactor

contact welds. Check for contact
MCC (Magnetic contractor welding immediately after use of magnetic
7
welding alarm) contactor is specified. Causes may include
short circuit of 3 phase diode bridge.

Alarm occurs when abnormally high current

8 HCL (Overcurrent alarm)
flows in main circuit of 1-axis amplifier or in
main circuit of L axis of 2-axis amplifier.
Causes may include faulty IC, abnomral
PWM signal, faulty motor, and grounded
wiring.

Alarm occurs when abnormally high current

flows in main circuity of M axis of 2-axis
amplifier. Causes may include faulty IC,
9 HCM (Overcurrent alarm)
abnormal PWM signal, faulty motor, and
grounded wiring.

Alarm occurs when abnormally high current

flows in main cirucits of L and M axes of 2
b HCLM (Overcurrent alarm) axis amplifier. Causes may include faulty IC,
abnormal PWM signal, faulty motor, and
grounded wiring.
