POINTER ERROR
ABB · ACS800
What does FFD0 mean?
A source selection (pointer) parameter within the ABB ACS800 drive is configured to point to a non-existent parameter index. This indicates an invalid configuration within the drive's parameter settings, which can lead to incorrect operation or control logic.
Common Causes
- A parameter (e.g., a source selection parameter like an analog input source) has been manually set to a value that references a parameter index that does not exist or is outside the valid range.
- Incorrect restoration of parameters from a backup or a faulty parameter download.
