6. Troubleshooting 6-3
6.1 Protective function/error description
In case of the wrong parameter setting or faulty writing, the inverter
and/or the motor may not function as commanded.
The MOSCON-E7 has many protective functions, which is displayed on
the digital operator when the fault occurs.
When the fault is detected, the fault contact output operates and the
inverter output to be shut off causing the motor to stop. The stopping
method can be selected for some faults.
• Refer to the table below for the fault display, cause and corrective
actions.
• To reset the fault, use one of the followings:
- Press the reset key on the digital operator.
- Turn the power supply off and on again.
- Turn on the fault reset terminal.

Corrective action
OC2
Short circuit
Error
The inverter
output or load
was short-circuited.
• A short-circuit or
ground fault (caused
by motor damage, worn
insulation, or a damaged
cable) at the inverter
output.
Reset the fault after
correcting.
OC1
Over current
The inverter
output current
exceeded 200%
of the rated
current instantly.
• A short-circuit or
ground fault (caused
by motor damage,
worn insulation, or a
damaged cable) at the
inverter output.
• Too large load or too
short accel/decel time.
• A magnetic switch was
switched at the inverter
output.
• A special-purpose
motor with too large
capacity for the inverter
is used.
Reset the fault after
correcting.

Meaning
Cause
Corrective action
FAN
Fan stopped.
Fan at the
bottom of the
inverter is not
operating.
• Defective cooling fan
or fan cable.
Check the wiring and
replace the fan if
necessary.
• Too high ambient
temperature.
Install a cooling unit.
• Heat source nearby
the inverter.
Remove the heat
source.
OH2 Inverter
Over-Heated.
The temperature
of the inverter’s
cooling fin
exceeded
approximately95
℃
.
• Inverter cooling fan is
malfunctioning.
Replace the cooling
fan.(Contact Samsung)
• Too short deceleration
time.
• Too large regenerative
energy from the motor.
Increase the
deceleration time or
connect a braking
resistor (or unit).
OV Main
Over-Voltage.
The main circuit
DC voltage
exceeded the
over voltage
detection level.
200V class:410V.
400V class:820V.
• Too high power
supply voltage.
Decrease the voltage
within specification.
UV1 Main
Under-Voltage.
The main circuit
DC voltage is
below the under
voltage detection
level.
200Vclass:190V.
400Vclass:380V.
• A open-phase
occurred with the input
power supply.
• A momentary
power loss.
• Too large voltage
fluctuation in the
input power supply.
Reset the fault after
Correction.
OL3
Over-torque
Det.
There was output
of 180% of the
rated current
instantly.
• Too heavy load or too
rapid acceleration.
• Set P3.02 and
P3.03 appropriately.
• Check the
mechanical system
and correct the cause
of the over torque.
