SI-F/G Communication Error

Yaskawa · VS-616G5 Variable Speed Drive

What does E-15 mean?

This fault may occur when using the SI-F or SI-G communication options if communication is lost after being established. It signifies a disruption in data exchange with the specific option card (SI-F or SI-G), which can halt control functions or data exchange, leading to operational stoppage and loss of control.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Check the physical communication cable between the SI-F/G option card and the external device for secure connection, damage, or breaks.

  2. 2

    Verify communication settings (baud rate, protocol, address) on both the inverter/option card and the external device.

  3. 3

    Ensure the SI-F or SI-G option card is correctly seated in its slot within the inverter.

  4. 4

    Inspect for external electrical noise or interference that could disrupt communication.

  5. 5

    If the fault persists, consider replacing the communication option card or testing with a different external device.
