Software Overcurrent

What does 36 mean?

The drive output current has exceeded its 1ms current rating, which is typically 200-250% of the drive's continuous rating. This indicates a sudden, high current demand that could be due to excessive load, improper DC boost settings, or excessively high DC brake volts, risking damage to the drive.

• Software detected current exceeding safety limits.
• Incorrect current limiting parameter (P1-36).
• Motor drawing excessive current due to mechanical load.
• Faulty current sensing circuitry.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Check for excess load on the motor.

2. 2

   Verify the [DC boost setting] parameter is correctly configured.

3. 3

   Check the [DC brake volts] parameter setting to ensure it is not too high.
