Model ID Out of Range (Adv. Code 0,1,2)

What does 8 mean?

This fault indicates that the control board is unable to properly read the drive's internal model identification data. This could signify a fundamental hardware issue with the control board or the drive's ID chip. The drive may not operate correctly or at all due to incorrect parameter loading or protection settings.

• Control board not properly seated or connected to the power board, preventing accurate communication of model ID.
• Hardware failure on the control board or power board responsible for storing and transmitting model identification data.
• Incompatibility between a replacement control board and the existing power section of the drive.
• Damage to internal communication traces or connectors between control and power sections.
• Environmental factors (e.g., excessive vibration, extreme temperatures) causing intermittent connection issues.

1. 1

   1. De-energize and lock out the drive, then physically reseat the control board, ensuring all connectors are firmly engaged with the power board.

2. 2

   2. Inspect the connectors between the control board and power board for bent pins, corrosion, or damage.

3. 3

   3. Verify that any replaced control board is the correct part number and revision for the specific drive model.

4. 4

   4. Check the drive's internal environment for signs of excessive heat (discoloration, melting components) or vibration damage.

5. 5

   5. Replace the control board if the fault persists after reseating and inspection.

6. 6

   6. Replace the entire drive if the control board replacement does not resolve the issue, indicating a power board failure.
