other on the basis of the subsequent behaviour of the drive. See Table 7-3. Fault types.

Meaning
A
(Alarm)
This type of fault is a sign of an unusual operating
condition. It does not cause the drive to stop, nor does it
require any special actions. The 'A fault' remains in the
display for about 30 seconds.
F
(Fault)
An 'F fault' is a kind of fault that makes the drive stop.
Actions need to be taken in order to restart the drive.
