EEP2

EEPROM Error 2 Fault

Schindler · Altivar 212 Variable Frequency Drive

What does EEP2 mean?

This fault occurs if power was removed from the Altivar 212 drive during a parameter reset operation, leading to a data writing error in the EEPROM. It can also indicate issues with initial position detection or motor inductance during auto-tuning.

Common Causes

  • Power removed from the drive during a parameter reset operation, causing a data writing error.
  • Measured current at initial position detection during auto-tuning is too small or large according to the motor's inductance or output phase loss.
