E.5

Generic Panel Fault 5 (CPU Fault)

Mitsubishi · D700 Inverter

What does E.5 mean?

This is a panel display code (specifically for FR-PU04/FR-PU07) that indicates a CPU fault (E.CPU) is active. The underlying issue is a communication fault of the built-in CPU, leading to inverter output stoppage. It signals a critical internal processing error that prevents normal operation.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Check for devices producing excessive electrical noise around the inverter that could interfere with its internal electronics; implement noise reduction measures (e.g., proper grounding, shielding).

  2. 2

    Ensure the inverter's operating environment is within specified conditions (temperature, humidity) to prevent internal component stress.

  3. 3

    Power cycle the inverter (turn off, wait, then turn on) to attempt a soft reset of the CPU.

  4. 4

    If the problem persists after troubleshooting environmental factors and power cycling, contact a sales representative for further diagnosis, as it may indicate an internal hardware failure.
