Should an application or system problem occur, built-in diagnostics will protect the system . The red "FAULT" light on the front of the
controller will flash and a fault condition will be shown on the display . In some cases, the system will shut itself off until corrective
action has been taken . Fault codes and the recommended corrective action for each are listed in the following table . To view the trip
codes in the recent trip log, press and hold the UP & DOWN keys at the same time for 1 second . The log will show the last 20 trips as
well as the time in days, hours & minutes since the trip occurred . (Note: the trip time will only increment while the drive has power .) If
no trips have been recorded, "No Fault" will be displayed in the log .

Corrective Action
Check motor wires and drop cable for shorts or bad connections
Replace motor
Check drop cable for insulation damage
If motor is disconnected and the fault is present when reset, replace drive .
Verify pump is mounted flush on motor mounting flange .
Check for debris in pump
Disconnect motor from drive and Ohm check motor and drop cable .
Repair any break in drop cable, defective splice or replace motor .
Change drive control choice from Switch to Transducer in Control
Choice menu
Internal short of transducer . Replace transducer .
Replace switch with transducer .
Check transducer lead connection and/or replace transducer lead wire .
Check transducer lead connection at drive terminals S1 & S2
Switch transducer leads at S1 & S2
Replace switch with transducer .
Replace transducer
between the pump and pressure switch
Check continuity across switch contacts without wire connected
and replace and/or clean pressure port
Adjust deadhead sensitivity in Underload Protection menu
Adjust underload sensitivity in Underload Protection menu
Wait for well to recover and automatic restart timer to time out
Clear pump screen
Replace pump shaft (or pump)
Replace pump
Reset pipe fill mode in Menu #10 Control Settings and increase fill time if
necessary .
Open valve between pump & transducer .
Check transducer for pressure port & clean
Replace transducer
System pressure can spike for rapidly closing valves . Drive will
automatically reset and start running the motor when the drawdown
pressure is reached and at least 10 seconds have passed since the trip
occurred .
Switch transducer leads at S1 & S2
Replace transducer
Wait for well to recover and automatic restart timer to time out
Clear pump screen
Replace pump shaft (or pump)
Replace pump
Check line voltage Report low voltage to the power company
Check voltage is present on all input lines & connections secure
Check connections on drive motor terminals for leg specified
Check all splice connections on drop cable for leg specified
Check continuity of drop cable for leg specified
Replace motor
