Note: Faults related to the main contactor (LED codes 3,1 / 3,2 / 3,3 / 3,4)
are detected only when the main contactor is driven by the controller – wiring
configuration shown in Figure 4, and Rev Input / Main Driver parameter = 2
(see page 24). Also “Main contactor disabled” only applies when the main
contactor is driven by the controller – wiring configuration shown in Figure
4, and Rev Input / Main Driver parameter = 2 (see page 24).
