30

Parameter Out of Range (Adv. Code 0)

Vacon · X4

What does 30 mean?

This fault indicates that a customer-defined parameter has been set to a value outside its permissible range. This can lead to unexpected drive behavior, incorrect motor control, or prevent proper operation. An invalid parameter can compromise system safety and performance.

Common Causes

  • Manual entry of a parameter value exceeding its maximum or falling below its minimum allowed range (e.g., P2-10 Min Frequency set higher than P2-09 Max Frequency).
  • A parameter value automatically calculated by another setting results in an invalid range for a dependent parameter.
  • Attempting to write a value to a read-only parameter, or a parameter locked by a security setting (e.g., P7-01 Security Code).
