036

Starting Frequency Exceeds Multi-step Speed References 1-15

Omron · MX2 Inverter

What does 036 mean?

This warning occurs when the inverter's starting frequency (b082) is set higher than one or more of the defined multi-step speed references (A021-A035). This inconsistent parameter configuration may lead to unexpected speed behavior when switching between multi-step speeds, as the base speed is higher than a target speed.

Common Causes

  • b082 (Starting Frequency) was manually configured to a value exceeding one or more of the multi-step speed references (A021-A035).
  • One or more of A021-A035 were inadvertently lowered to a value below the configured b082.
  • An inconsistent parameter setup where the drive attempts to start at a frequency higher than a potential target multi-step speed.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Access parameter b082 (Starting Frequency) and review all multi-step speed reference parameters A021 through A035.

  2. 2

    Identify which specific multi-step speed reference(s) are lower than b082.

  3. 3

    Adjust b082 (Starting Frequency) to be less than or equal to the lowest multi-step speed reference that might be selected for operation.

  4. 4

    Alternatively, if the application requires b082 to be higher, increase the relevant A021-A035 multi-step speed references to be equal to or greater than b082.

  5. 5

    Save the parameter changes and power cycle the drive. Then re-check the parameter values and test operation using the affected multi-step speed references.
