6.5 Alarm Detection
Alarms are drive protection functions that do not operate the fault contact. The drive will return to original status when the
cause of the alarm has been removed.
During an alarm condition, the Digital Operator display flashes and an alarm output is generated at the multi-function outputs
(H2-01 to H2-03), if programmed.
Investigate the cause of the alarm and
Refer to Detailed Alarm Codes, Causes, and Possible Solutions on page 282

Station Address Setting Error (CC-Link, CANopen, MECHATROLINK)
Option card node address is outside the acceptable setting range.
Cause
Possible Solution
Minor Fault
(H2-

= 10)
Station number is set outside the possible
setting range.
• Set parameter F6-10 to the proper value if a CC-Link option card is used
• Set parameter F6-20 to the proper value if a MECHATROLINK option card is used.
• Set parameter F6-35 to the proper value if a CANopen option card is used.

Cause
Possible Solution
Minor Fault
(H2-

External baseblock signal entered via multi-
function input terminal (S1 to S7).
Check external sequence and baseblock signal input timing.

Option Communication Error
• After initial communication was established, the connection was lost.
• Assign a run command frequency reference to the option card.
Cause
Possible Solution
Minor Fault
(H2-
oo
= 10)
Connection is broken or master controller
stopped communicating.
• Check for faulty wiring.
• Correct the wiring.
• Repair ground wiring or disconnected cables.
YES
Option card is damaged.
If there are no problems with the wiring and the fault continues to occur, replace the option
card.
The option card is not properly connected to
the drive.
• The connector pins on the option card are not properly lined up with the connector pins
on the drive.
• Reinstall the option card.
A data error occurred due to noise.
• Check options available to minimize the effects of noise.
• Take steps to counteract noise in the control circuit wiring, main circuit lines and ground
wiring.
• Try to reduce noise on the controller side.
• Use surge absorbers on magnetic contactors or other equipment causing the disturbance.
• Use cables recommended by Yaskawa, or another type of shielded line. The shield
should be grounded on the controller side or on the drive input power side.
• All wiring for communications devices should be separated from drive input power
lines. Install an EMC noise filter to the input side of the drive input power.
